Lyrics and Music by Noemi Liba

lyrics

There’s been no sense of time to keep
Haven’t time to dream you all complete
The clouds wash off this days heat,
The sea will wash at our feet

She still breathes under concrete
No need to compete…

And tigers guard the dawn
Where the rules lie burnt and torn
Defying us to share
Our bodies tranquil and bare

Nothing to compare
There’s nothing to compare…

But my arms hold you
Will carry you up above
So wake from sleep
You’ll protect me with your love

To discern, not to conceal
There are too many layers to peel
How much of this is real?
How much of us is time sealed?

Sometimes I close my mind, just to feel.
Before all it I kneel…

My arms hold you
Will carry you up above
So wake from sleep
You’ll protect me with your love….
