Une île est une chanson française écrite par Serge Lama
Musique: Yves Gilbert
(C) 1969 by Sidonie et Éditions Serge Lama 

Refrain / chorus
 Une île entre le ciel et l'eau
Une île sans hommes ni bateaux,
Inculte, un peu comme une insulte,
Sauvage, sans espoir de voyage,
Une île, une île
Entre le ciel et l'eau.
1 Ce serait là, face à la mer immense
Là, sans espoir d'espérance,
Tout seul face à ma destinée,
Plus seul qu'au coeur d'une forêt,
Ce serait là dans ma propre défaite
Tout seul sans espoir de conquête
Que je saurais enfin pourquoi
Je t'ai quittée, moi qui n'aime que toi.
R Une île comme une cible d'or
Tranquille comme un enfant qui dort,
Fidèle à en mourir pour elle,
Cruelle à force d'être belle;
Une île, une île
Comme un enfant qui dort.
2 Ce serait là, face à la mer immense
Là, pour venger mes vengeances,
Tout seul avec mes souvenirs,
Plus seul qu'au moment de mourir.
Ce serait là, au coeur de Sainte-Hélène,
Sans joie, sans amour et sans haine
Que je saurais enfin pourquoi
Je t'ai quittée, moi qui n'aime que toi.
R Une île entre le ciel et l'eau.
Une île sans hommes ni bateaux,
Inculte un peu comme une insulte,
Sauvage, sans espoir de voyage.
Une île, cette île, mon île
C'est toi.

This is my third collaboration with Mike Fox, and I couldn't be happier with how it came out. Mike totally rocks! I hope you like it as much as we both do. 

Music, vocals and production: Mike Fox
Lyrics: Andrea Brennan

The desert has no secrets
It's one big open road
This land of sand's my runway
And I'm ready to explode

Under blue sky and sunshine
My troubles burn away
I kick into high gear
Blow out the dust of yesterday

Chorus
Full throttle ahead
I'm never looking back
Full throttle ahead
With endless miles to set me free
Full throttle ahead
The wind can't even catch me

Vibrations of the engine
Propel my inner high 
I set a course for nowhere
And I kiss the world goodbye

I don't know where I'm going
But that's alright by me
Every new direction
Feels like synchronicity

Chorus 
Full throttle ahead
I'm never looking back
Full throttle ahead
With endless miles to set me free
Full throttle ahead
The wind can't even catch me

Rattlesnakes and scorpions
My only company
Here solitude is solace
Which suits me perfectly

The aching in my muscles
And knocking in my head
Settle in the landscape
As blue skies turn to red

Chorus
Full throttle ahead
I'm never looking back
Full throttle ahead
With endless miles to set me free
Full throttle ahead
The wind can't even catch me

Full Throttle Ahead - Collaboration with Mike Fox

A song about a guy walking his dog in the early hours and remembering the love of his life. I often see plane trail kisses in the sky and thought it would be fun to write a song around that image.

Stepping Up The Stairs

V1.
I used to run full throttle to the bottom of the bottle
To erase her memory
I’d taken all the blame, swallowed all the shame
Hiding pain so the world can’t see.
When the demons were drowned it was time to turn around
Looking up from the bottom of the pit
Satan’s a traitor there was no elevator
Had to climb the ladder out of it.

Chorus
When I hit rock bottom I guess I’d forgotten
That there’s light beyond the dark.
Time to take control and climb out of the hole.
I just needed a little spark
From flicker to flame there ain’t no shame
No time to be scared
I gotta stop staring up the steps
And start stepping up the stairs

V2.
When the destination is unknown
It’s hard to know the path to take
And when the road ahead starts winding
I’ll take every step in faith.
Making mole hills out of mountains
Ascending to the end
Nothing in life takes more courage 
Than putting myself together again

Chorus
When I hit rock bottom I guess I’d forgotten
That there’s light beyond the dark.
Time to take control and climb out of the hole.
I just needed a little spark
From flicker to flame there ain’t no shame
No time to be scared
I gotta stop staring up the steps
And start stepping up the stairs

Bridge
I’ve been knocked down a thousand ways
But I get back up every time
And when I reach the peak
I see the steps were worth the climb

Chorus
When I hit rock bottom I guess I’d forgotten
That there’s light beyond the dark.
Time to take control and climb out of the hole.
I just needed a little spark
From flicker to flame there ain’t no shame
No time to be scared
I gotta stop staring up the steps
And start stepping up the stairs

I just gotta stop staring up the steps 
And start stepping up the stairs

You come around
And I go around
I can’t tame my addiction
It’s not what you think with me
Just pay attention
I drive in circles
Trip myself
On the same distortion
I always feel I have to go
I can’t convey enough
Need a place for my scattered mind
Be longing is so senseless
Here I go in my eternal process
Which I’m overly obsessed

Hurry up
Rush my friend
Push it baby
I’m sorry, so sorry

You come around
I go around
I can’t tame my addiction
It’s not what you think with me
Just pay attention
I drive in circles
Trip myself
On the same distortion
Be sure for what purpose
Noone is a finished matter
We are just hanging on
Trying to make life better
Where do I wanna run
Oh, I’m not here
Nowhere, anywhere

Hurry up
Rush my friend
Push it baby
I’m sorry, so sorry
