Lyrics

YEARNING 2014

1. I Thought I Could
I thought I could wait for you
You – beautiful, you – my boy
But you are still on your way
And I have to go

I’m counting minutes or years
Till I will see you just once more
But you are still on your way
And I have to go

I thought I could wait for you
Nine years, just nine years
But you are still on your way
And I have to go
My beautiful, my boy

lyrics by Magda Bożyk, music by Magda Bożyk, Radek Kopeć; Magda Bożyk (vocal), Łukasz Aksamit (guitar), Rafał Samborski (guitar), Radek Kopeć (bass guitar&rhodes), Michał Tincel (drums )

2. On The Cold Ground

What if we meet again
In the half way
On the Cold Ground

What if we start again
We’d never end
On the Cold Ground

What if we see once more
Ours necks, and hands and brows
On the Cold Ground

What if we do these things
Which shouldn’t have been done
On the Cold Ground

What if the dream was true
And our love’s still full
On the Cold Ground

What if I could no more
Wake up alone
On the Cold Ground

You drive me faraway
As you were my man
On the Cold Ground

We are the only two
I hurt nobody and it’s true
On the Cold Ground

We can be lovers - me and you
We eat our love to be full
On the Cold Ground

And it is just one day
It wouldn’t be a betrayal
On the Cold Ground

Then we will close the door
Without making the others alone
On the Cold Ground

But it is not a dream
Scars will be seen
On the Cold Ground

So we will never meet
And life will be never sweet
On the Cold Ground

3. Is That All

Is that all
Is that everything
Should I already go
Was so good
So smooth
So plain
I’m not ready
not yet
again

And now what
life turns to death
I’m not ready
not yet
I’m not ready
not yet
again

Is that all?
The night went away?
Am I ready?
Are you dead?
I’m not ready
not yet
again

4. Outside

I’m standing outside
Drinking cold night
Alone, alone
Why this beauty is called wrong
Why this clearest touch – dirty?
Am I bad?
Am I bad?
You told me you’d poison my life
You did it
You did it
You told me you’d poison my life
You did it
You did it
So I’m drinking sweet poison of you
In the cold night
Alone, alone

5. No Signs

No signs from you
No thoughts about me?
It’s done – am I right?
You’re fine without me?

But I can’t believe in this silence
I don’t trust your no-voice

You want to leave me
to make me free
You want to make us
free from we

6. I Didn't Know

I didn’t know what love meant
I thought it could depend on will
I thought I could choose the sense
But I can’t choose anything

I can read the words I got from you
from the beginning to the end
The whole night and the whole day
But it’s never enough
They’re the only part of you I have
The only part of you I could have

I love you, I love you, I love you
I didn’t know what it meant
And now when I know
I cannot do anything

7. I Need To Drink

I need to drink
a little more of you
I need to taste
just a drop of your time

I need to be bound
as I am
I need to be needed
as I am

but don’t wait for me
this time
go
and don’t be alone
ever more

8. Words

My words are too dear to me
But I couldn’t bring you nearer than you thought you’d be
Judge me as you think I am
You’ll never understand all the reasons well

Chase me if you dare to run
While I'm hopping over hopes. Be sure you touch the ground
Something's coming up the way, still it makes me think that
I don't wanna play that game

I don’t need your rockets
They’ve tried to slow me down
But you can always come and meet us
When we’re hanging here around

9. Journey

I’m coming back from my journey
I’m coming back from my way
I wasn’t there alone
And it was helpful you know

My body needed a man
Closeness, touch, and breath
I needed to hear a voice
I needed to hear there is somebody, there

Don’t forgive me
There is nothing to forgive
I just was with somebody
Somebody fragile and bright

Try to touch my skin
It’s untouched
It’s yours

I just needed a man to love
to see him, to hear him, to love,
I needed to hear a voice
I needed to hear there is somebody, there

10. You Are My Body

You are my body
You are my life
You are my future
And my half past

You are the only man I have
The only man I’ll spend life with
This is my will, my plan, my way
You have to be patient with me

You are my emptiness
You are my waiting
You are my scream
For being fulfilled

You are the others I’m looking for
You are my loneliness to be
You are my all every-days
You are my home I’m coming back to

You are my body
You are my will
You are my brain
You are my man

You are my laughing when I’m safe
You are my freedom, apple and tree
You are my effort and my challenge
You are my dreams I’m free to dream

You are my mornings
You are my nights
You are my future
And my half past
