The Garden

I need a glass of wine
no use for water right now
She'll be here anytime
The garden brings me back
to sharing apples in the rain
She'll be here anytime

The first bite of love
A taste not easily forgotten

Another glass of wine
She is my reason to stay
She'll be here anytime

The hours alone
A time not easily forgiven

Where is this girl of mine
The rain is pouring down
She said... she'd be here anytime
She told me no regrets
I light a cigarette and cry
I guess this means goodbye

I'm back on my own
I thought I'd never be forsaken

I'm leaving the garden
where her kisses made me a man
Still holding the apple in my hand,
but the wine is spilt in the sand

I'm leaving the garden
where her kisses made me a man
I'm holding the apple in my hand
I'm leaving the garden

/ Music and lyrics by Torfinn Sirnes and Johannes Stole /

Father & Son

Puzzling reflections
in the mirror
when I want to see face to face

Llike the butterflies
on my pillow
I need to get out of this place

With the memories of two becoming one
Fainted pictures of the Father and the Son

Don't think I'm able
Don't think I can
forgive all the sins that I have seen

Don't think I'm Able
Don't think I'm Kain
I'm more like the son in between

Am I just living for the love and hate
My father gives to me
Is it too late
Is there still time to break free

With the memories of two becoming one
Fainted pictures of the Father and the Son

/ Music by Torfinn Sirnes and Johannes Stole ' Lyrics by Torfinn Sirnes /

World of Things

Face to face
No puzzling reflections
anymore
In a place
where someone tells me
how it was before

I left a lie
There’s nothing more
than meets the eye

(Follow me to the world of things
I cannot sleep tonight
(You don't know what tomorrow brings
The mirror shines so bright
(Come follow me to the world of things)
I wonder if the light
Will follow me to the things

Where beauty is in
everything I see
It’s a place
where someone tells me
how it's gonna be

The gold will shine
In rivers of honey,
milk and wine

/ Music by Torfinn Sirnes, Johannes Stole, Stein A. Grønås and Geir Egil Thorstensen ' Lyrics by Torfinn Sirnes /
