Dear Sungji, you're a great composer indeed! Your music is so rich and colourful. Greetings from Italy

Got Conections Got Projections

A song in which we channel our inner Portishead........

I guess it was just my own world
After all
Having you as the other part
Was nothing more
And nothing less than illusion

Oh you really fooled me good
Oh so good
Good, as in pleasantly 
And good as in sublimely
Good as in nothing wanting
As in I thought you were just too good to be true

CHORUS
Who was the one
Who always said forever and ever
Don’t forget
Who was the one who always said
We were a perfect fit
Who was the one 
Who had no doubt 
The future lay right ahead of us
Who was the one who said
That we were all that we needed
Don’t forget (x3)
It was I all along

Having you as the other part
Was nothing more
And nothing less than illusion

Oh you really fooled me good
Oh so good
Good, as in completely
And good as in oh so very cleverly
And good as in I was good and gone for you 
As in you had me hook line and sinker good

Repeat CHORUS

Oh you fooled me good
Oh so good
As in your disguise was crafted with care
But I had no idea 
They made those costumes
In such a slim fit

9000 Things To See

Keep Me Forever
