JJ Samuel & EG ‘A LITTLE CLOSER’

my love

WITHOUT YOU expresses an intense dependence on someone who feels irreplaceable, portraying love as both a lifeline and an obsession. It captures the struggle of trying to move on while being constantly pulled back by memories and emotions that refuse to fade. The lyrics reveal vulnerability, longing, and the inability to imagine life without that person, framing them as the center of existence. It’s a powerful declaration of love’s grip, where absence feels unbearable and presence defines identity.

LYRIC

Verse

Every day I wake, I still hear your name
Like a song stuck deep in my veins
Tried to move, tried to play it cool
But I’m falling hard, like a reckless fool

Pre-Chorus

You’re the reason that I lose my ground
When you’re not near, I spin around
Don’t tell me it’s just a phase
I’m caught in your magnetic haze

Chorus

I can’t live without you, no way to pretend
You’re the start of every moment, the place where I end
I can’t breathe, I can’t fake it
This is real, I can’t shake it
I can’t live, I can’t live without you

Verse

Every room I walk through feels too wide
You were the pulse that fit inside
No map can guide me from your trace
I still see your face in every place

Pre-Chorus

Told myself I’d be just fine
But you’re the frame to my broken line
You’re the spark that lights my fire
The only name I still desire

Chorus

I can’t live without you, no way to pretend
You’re the start of every moment, the place where I end
I can’t breathe, I can’t fake it
This is real, I can’t shake it
I can’t live, I can’t live without you

Bridge

I’ve tried to rewrite all our lines
But every word still leads me back in time
You’re the rhythm I can’t replace
Still feel your hand, still see your face

Chorus

I can’t live without you, no way to pretend
You’re the beat that never ends
I can’t breathe, I can’t fake it
This is real, I can’t shake it
I can’t live, I can’t live without you
No, I can’t live, I can’t live without you

Without You

Lilac in the Desert

[Verse 1]
This age has melted me down
but left my breath behind—
youth did not kill me
yet its death stayed inside

Lilac I drifted far
shadow on a page of sky—
if love had its time
why did it wait to arrive

[Pre-Chorus]
I carried sparks in the soil
cried to the heavens above—
Every wound in my palm
was a prayer was a love

[Chorus]
Lilac in the desert
calling out my name—
restless urge of rivers
pulling through the flames

I was young unbroken
yet broken just the same
Lilac in the desert
you led me where I came

[Verse 2]
I would not speak too soon
my tongue rusted with grief—
the chance of mistakes
the inheritance of belief
Adam's fate was in me
trembling body set alight
thousands of sparks
plunged deep into the night

[Pre-Chorus]
I drank the cloud's essence
without breaking its skin—
Sweat and questions poured
where has it carried man in

[Chorus]
Lilac in the desert
calling out my name—
restless urge of rivers
pulling through the flames

I was young unbroken
yet broken just the same
Lilac in the desert
you led me where I came

[Bridge]
There is a fountain soiled and scarred
my reflection in my hand
I said 'it doesn't matter'
yet I was searching for a stand

The city's fire still burning
its wound still speaks in me
I walked on face bent forward
toward a summer I can't see

[Final Chorus]
Lilac in the desert
calling out my name—
restless urge of rivers
pulling through the flames

I was young unbroken
yet broken just the same
Lilac in the desert
I walk and still I came

[Outro]
Lilac oh lilac
I walk on

Lilac in the Desert

Löse dich von mir

C'mon....pack yer bags and let's go travelin'    😎

Trace (Lyrics/Paroles)

Sunlight flickers on a lost place, 
We leave the map of us in every space.
Always human traces, written on the face, 
Footprints in the sand, secrets in the lace, 
We run, we fall, we rise, 
we always leave a trace,

A fire of memories rises in my mind,
the sea, the burning sand, the sky,
and the grace of this place,
it is the world, its visible face

Trace

We are all gods

     Happy Halloween 2025 Ghouls and Goyles! Here's my 4th Halloween video for this month! This is an old one written in the 80's if you can believe that! Us vampires never age, remember? 🎃 In this song & video Zombies are the stars! When I wrote the song back in the day, it was not meant for Halloween, it was just a Rock song with a catchy hook to dance to and a Latin Flavouring (like Santana) but when I made the video for it earlier this year, I turned it into a Zombie song!!!🧟‍♂️ Here is the definitions of a zombie: "A zombie is a mythological undead corporeal revenant created through the reanimation of a corpse." That sounds simply delish! Don't you agree? 👀
     I re-recorded the song several years back and Charlie sang it okay! He also played some harmonica on it as well! It has a heavier rock Latin beat to it now and I jammed on the guitar lead like Satana, I mean Santana, excuse me!😱👺 I really worked hard on the video with enormous amounts of eye-candy and ear-poppings for the kiddies! It's not scary because the music is not scary but maybe little kids shouldn't watch it just in case!🧛‍♂️

     There are hungry zombies and also dancing zombies🧟‍♂️ and a Happy Halloween wish at the end! I hope you guys are enjoying my October Spook-tacular so far! I have a couple more ghoulish songs & videos left to drop in the coming weeks. I will be gone tomorroww for a few weeks to visit my old pals Dracula and Frankenstein back in jolly ole England, so I'll catch up with your comments (if any!) when and if I return!😳🥺
     So everybody please have a nice and safe Halloween and don't eat too much candy! It might give you The Willies! Good evening!🎃

“JUMP INTO THE FIRE”

YOUR NEON EYES ARE ALWAYS FLASHING,   
THEY SPARKLE LIKE THE STARS ABOVE,    
THEY DRAW AND LURE ME INTO DANGER,      
THEY TEMPT ME WITH UNDYING LOVE,
                  
YOUR SULTRY SMILE IS SO SEDUCTIVE,   
IT RUSHES IN JUST LIKE THE TIDE,     
IT HOLDS AND KEEPS ME CAPTIVATED,    
IT HAUNTS ME WHEN I TRY TO HIDE,

JUMP INTO THE FIRE,         
DON’T THINK TWICE ABOUT ROMANCE,         
MY HEART SAYS JUMP INTO THE FIRE,           
DON’T BE AFRAID TO TAKE A CHA-CHA-CHANCE,
        
JUMP INTO THE FIRE,         
DON’T PAY ATTENTION TO THE PAST,          
MY HEART SAYS JUMP INTO THE FIRE,          
MY MIND SAYS IT WILL NEVER LAST,
                  
YOUR DROP-DEAD WALK IS SO ALLURING,    
EACH STEP A TANTALIZING TASTE,    
EACH MOVEMENT SENSUALLY ATTRACTIVE,    
EACH MOTION ELEGANTLY PACED,
   
YOUR LIPS WHISPER THE WORDS “I LOVE YOU”,     
AND IT’S LIKE MUSIC TO MY EARS,      
IS IT A SPELL CAST BY A SORCERESS?      
LIKE MAGIC WILL IT DISAPPEAR?
     
JUMP INTO THE FIRE,           
DON’T THINK TWICE ABOUT ROMANCE,          
MY HEART SAYS JUMP INTO THE FIRE,             
DON’T BE AFRAID TO TAKE A CHA-CHA-CHANCE,
          
JUMP INTO THE FIRE,          
DON’T PAY ATTENTION TO THE PAST,          
MY HEART SAYS JUMP INTO THE FIRE,         
MY MIND SAYS IT WILL NEVER LAST.

**I NEVER USE A.I. IN ANY OF MY SONGS OR VIDEOS!** Hi everybody, my name is Jim and I’m a songwriter, I've written over 300 songs, I play guitar, bass, piano, and am an okay lyricist.  I play all types of music and have my own recording studio.  I use no A.I. or DAW or any computers to make my songs or my videos, all the instruments are played by me live on a multitrack studio recorder and Charlie, my vocalist, sings most of my songs and also plays the Harmonica on several tracks. I use video clips from Motion Array or Pexals or Pixabay for my videos. I'm not a pro or a great musician but I do what I can with the tools that I have! I belong to the "Keep Humans In Music Movement" (KHMM)! We're NOT perfect but we're REAL! Thanks everyone for listening and the world needs more music now, real music made by HUMANS not MACHINES! So let's all sing a song with our own voices, please! I do not consent to any of my songs or videos being used or sampled or lifted in any way or fashion. Take care!👍😎✌🏼.
