Marco Borsato – Breng Me Naar Het Water

In de vroegte van de morgen
Sprak je zachtjes mijn naam
En ik wist dat je me zeggen zou
Dat het tijd was om te gaan

Je zei schat maak je geen zorgen
Ik zal altijd bij je zijn
En ik wist dat je de waarheid sprak
Door hoe je keek naar mij
Toen je zei
Toen je zei

Ik ben klaar om op reis te gaan
Aan de andere kant te staan
Voorbij de grens
Ik sluit mijn ogen
Voor alles wat er komen gaat
‘t Is laat
Ik ben klaar om op reis te gaan
Ik heb alles wel gedaan
Pak m’n hand en voel het stromen
De liefde die ik bij me draag
Ik vraag je
Breng me naar het water
Breng me naar het meer
En leg me neer

It was early in the evening
She gave all that she could give
And I felt her leaving me
But I learned how to live
When she said
When she said

I’m ready to close my eyes
Steady and hold tight
I’m gonna be crossing over
To heaven and the great divine
And I

Ik ben klaar om op reis te gaan
Ik heb alles wel gedaan
Pak m’n hand en voel het stromen
De liefde die ik bij me draag
Ik vraag je
Breng me naar het water
Breng me naar het meer
En leg me neer
Lay me down

Ben klaar om op reis te gaan
Aan de andere kant te staan
Voorbij de grens ik sluit m’n ogen
Voor alles wat er komen gaat
‘t Is laat

I’m ready to close my eyes
They’re heavy and so wide
I can feel it pull me under
Steady as the rising tide

Take me to the water
By the road that leads you down
Take me to the water
Scatter me around

Breng me naar het water/take me to the water
Breng me naar het meer
Breng me naar het water/take me to the water
Voor de allerlaatste keer
Breng me naar het water/take me to the water
Breng me naar het meer

Lay me down
En leg me neer

Album: Evenwicht

Matt Simons – Catch & Release

There’s a place I go to
Where no one knows me
It’s not lonely
It’s a necessary thing

It’s a place I made up
Find out what I’m made of
The nights I’ve stayed up
Counting stars and fighting sleep

Let it wash over me
I’m ready to lose my feet
Take me off to the place where one reveals life’s mystery
Steady on down the line
Lose every sense of time
Take it all in and wake up that small part of me
Day to day I’m blind to see
And find how far to go

Everybody got their reason
Everybody got their way
We’re just catching and releasing
What builds up throughout the day
It gets into your body
And it flows right through your blood
We can tell each other secrets
And remember how to love

Da da dum da dum dum dum
Da dum dum dum
Da dum dum
Da da dum da dum dum dum
Da dum dum dum
Da dum dum

There’s a place I’m going
No one knows me
If I breathe real slowly
I let it out and let it in

It can be terrifying
To be slowly dying
Also, clarifying
We end where we begin

So let it wash over me
I’m ready to lose my feet
Take me off to the place where one reveals life’s mystery
Steady on down the line
Lose every sense of time
Take it all in and wake up that small part of me
Day to day I’m blind to see
And find how far to go

Everybody got their reason
Everybody got their way
We’re just catching and releasing
What builds up throughout the day
It gets into your body
It flows right through your blood
We can tell each other secrets
And remember how to love

Da da dum da dum dum dum
Da dum dum dum
Da dum dum
Da da dum da dum dum dum
Da dum dum dum
Da dum dum

Everybody got their reason
Everybody got their way
We’re just catching and releasing
What builds up throughout the day
And it gets into your body
And it flows right through your blood
We can tell each other secrets
And remember how to love

Matt Simons lyrics

Matt Simons – With You

Honest where I start from
I try and impart my wisdom
A combination, of truth and fear
That’s the way it’s always been
My father and his before him
At times we hurt the ones we love so dear

I’ll be with you, I’ll be waiting for you
On the other side, on the other side
And the winds that blow they’ll guide you home
Get you through the night, get you through the night
It will all be right

My job to control you
Darling though I barely know you
Hoping you’ll grow tired and start giving in
Spare the holy water, pour it on my only daughter
Maybe there’s a shot, she’ll begin again

I’ll be with you, I’ll be waiting for you
On the other side, on the other side
And the winds that blow they’ll guide you home
Get you through the night, get you through the night
It will all be right

So wrong, and I’m here to make it right
For what it’s worth
And I’m sorry, yes I’m sorry
If you never felt the love, the love,
The love that you deserve

I’ll be with you, I’ll be waiting for you
On the other side, on the other side
And the winds that blow they’ll guide you home
Get you through the night, get you through the night
It will all be right, it will all be right.
