by Alice Watts

supported by
Fabrizio Ori

Fabrizio Ori No song is similar to the previous one, this is Alice's pure folk with all the experimental additions. "Flood" is the most emotional track, "Let us be" the easiest to listen. However, "The Storm cries encore" is the best choice to appreciate the top sound production (hammond/keys notes, simply wonderful) Favorite track: Flood.

Salty Seas 04:00
Salty seas Breeze that rolls to let it go, let it go, let go Taste all the sounds and move like a honey bee In this afternoon light that we see Caught a little glimpse Of his soul, his soul, his soul, his soul Bend a little time In day dream Salty seas We fall in to fit the beat Resting in shadows to hide from the heat Wave after wave, we’re released Caught a little sight Of his soul, his soul, his soul, his soul, Spend a little time in daydream And by starlight We are so exposed With your sails in sight I am so vulnerable And by midnight The moon calls in haste To illuminate Every star we chased Caught a little sight Of his soul, his soul, his soul, his soul, Spend a little time in daydream Caught a little sight Of his soul, his soul, his soul Spend a little time in daydream

You’re not alone, in this story There’s still space for you to fly And though it seems you’re always falling You’re out of love, not out of time Like a wine you’re still maturing And one day, you’ll qualify But today feels like the jury Is out of town not out of your mind Chorus Take my hand and lead me beside The still waters in the peace of your mind Take my hand and lead me beside The forgiveness in the tide of your time With no regrets you keep on dreaming You’re limitless in all their eyes You’d steal a kiss if you could remember Those balmy days in summer time Chorus Take my hand lead me beside The still waters in the peace of your mind Take my hand and lead me beside The forgiveness in the tide in your time Will you believe what your memory tells you? Thoughts ablaze in the cool of the day Oh you sent me flying into sonnets and solace How you think you’re just a passing memory Chorus Take my hand lead me beside The still waters in the peace of your mind Take my hand and lead me beside The forgiveness in the tide in your time Ending: Call me to you, Call me to you

Into Gold 04:09
Into Gold He’s taking all the pieces, time now to release them He taking all the pieces of his past They circle all around him, a shimmering surrounding They circle all around him Melt them down, melt them down Into Gold, where the fire burns in the fathom of the blue Let it go, Let it Be Let it flow to the moon, from the echo of your youth He’s happy walking by now Following all he knows is good Trouble will come when he uncovers All of the things for which he stood She’s taking her surroundings, All that will astound her She’s taking her surroundings, place them in His hands Circle all around her, she’s on holy ground now Circle all around her… She gave love and let it go, then she turned Into Gold, where the fire burns in the fathom of the blue Keep a hold of it, Hold on to it Like a brave child, when you’re standing on your truth She’s happy walking free now Hunger for wild days is restored Beauty made a way through To take all of the shame that she held to Where’s the meaning, of it all? Let’s fall Into Gold in the fathom of the blue There’s no end, there’s no end Though we don’t understand, there’s a beauty in the blue We’re happy walking by now Hunger for wild days is restored His Beauty brought us home to Cure all of the pain that we’ve been through Walking away from what we knew Every day from here is new I don’t understand but I know he’s good

Children 03:38
High and living life, just like we dreamed Searching for some reason and meaning Shepherd me along, I’m in need of love Hold your arms, open wide, so that I, can fall into your day dream Disillusioned minds will tear the seams Of all of heaven’s stores of happy memories Where did all the time and childhood go? We would be, so free, dreaming, safe and sound till morning Children carry us we have Fallen too far to return without you Children carry us Infuse all the colours of life into us once again Standing in her yellow dress, with those small red shoes Stories until she sleeps, she’ll cherish dad for those We are breakable, I feel it in my soul Yet we stand on shoulders of those who boldly went before us Children carry us we have travelled too far to return without you Children carry us Infuse all the colours of life into us once again Children carry us We have travelled too far to return without you Children we all will rise and Carry the mantle of faith to the skies for you We’re better together where we can paint of his love forever with brushes worn with life and suffering till Beauty will restore us

In Your Arms 04:08
People are so cold No time on their hands To stop and remember to talk I never let you know Just how much your worth Now the world has stolen our time All your hope You need to know That these arms Will hold you People abandon their shelter and run Fear takes their homes, takes their sons I miss the time in the warmth of your love You miss the light that will come Time is a healer That’s what they will say But nothing healed you this far When you find someone Who knows you like this You keep them safe and don’t let them run All your hope You need to know That these arms Will hold you People are so cold no time on their hands To stop and remember to talk But when I see him I know we will reflect The glory he gave on that day / Through all of the glory he gave

He moves, in shadows, underground He speaks, so smooth, when you’re around He inspires, the rolling of war You admire his view, you want more Hunter, narrow your sugared eyes Thunder, breathes slow, across your sky To inspire the rolling of war He admires your soul, and he wants more Deafening roars, shake your shores Stand strong, in this Trojan war The wind has wings, that beat and brew The sounds of drums, still follow you While he laces his words, you adore Still the smoke stings your eyes, but you explore Deafening roars, shake your shores Stand strong, in this Trojan war Captive you fell into his charm Astounded you found a love so rare Softly he seemed to do no harm Run before your glory fades Deafening roars, shake your shores Stand strong, in this Trojan war

If I could fall in love with you There’ll be a revolution Inside our star filled minds At this moment you decide to slide Into the observations We hide behind our eyes Thunder rolls the night into Your realm of conversation Where clouds and sounds entwine Walking home we let the rain Soak through the constellations We thought would guide our lives Will you be here with me At the end of the day? Just for a time we’ll be In heavenly peace Heavy waves will pound you down until the revelation Bursts through your cloud-filled mind Paper in your hands folds you Into a generation That flows against the tide Will you be here with me At the end of the day? Just for a time we’ll be In heavenly peace Holding on while we run The storm cries ‘encore’ Ten thousand oceans chased To find your shore These days, we still gaze, at the sky These days we try but we fail to fly These days we can’t be, what we need to be, These days we’re free, but our eyes don’t see Will you be here with me At the end of the day? Just for a time we’ll be In heavenly peace Holding on while we run The storm cries ‘encore’ Ten thousand oceans chased To find your shore Will you be here with me At the end of the day? Just for a time we’ll be In heavenly peace Holding on while we run The storm cries ‘encore’ Ten thousand oceans chased To find your shore

Flood 04:39
Those tender memories Kept locked away Tumble like tangle weed Through years decayed The light appeared so fast Come see with me Spread like a canopy o’er the sky It’s ever rising, this flood, overtakes the danger But you’ve gone down in flames You disappeared in the smoke on the battlefield Lost beneath the waves But I’ll find you, draw you… Next to me. You’ll come home I will search horizons Conquer mountains and seas To know that you are free String holds you fast together Tender and strong Silk threads are weaving you Above the ground It’s ever rising, this flood Overtakes the danger, but you’ve gone down in flames I don’t even know you, I only want to hold you Understand you’re pain I’ll find you, and paint you… Lonely warrior, I follow all the lines Places you have been Lonely warrior, my fingertips will trace Over tracks of time, to cover you in Grace. And I’ll find you, draw you…

Hideaway 04:05
Trouble moves in my head Seeks to conquer the still Staggering as we tred The roads the kingdom calls us to instead Miles and miles and miles of posies Till He comes Hideaway with you till sunrise Till He comes Anchored safe within your shores Till He comes Find a rose on my wall Stirring up a gentle flame Find the place to give it all Drawing circles …..in your hands Miles and miles and miles of posies Till He comes Hideaway with you till sunrise Till He comes Anchored safe within your shores Till He comes Carry me In your arms I need your peace Take me in It’s so cold, Please let your warmth Encompass me Miles and miles and miles of posies Till He comes Hideaway with you till sunrise Till He comes Anchored safe within your shores Till He comes

Let Us Be 04:28
Let us be, let us be free to sleep in peace, Let us be, Let us be Let us dream, let us dream that together we’ll find our freedom, let us dream, let us dream Take us high so we fly like a dove in the face of your hostility Even when all is said, all is done Beautify our demise as we stand in the shadow of captivity And we’re faced with the end of your gun Butterflies help us rise, and fall like the birds in the sky, when we find mothers crying All the eyes, that are blind, they’ll pass us by, with the world, till they find your disguises Let us be, let us be free to sleep in peace, Let us be, Let us be Let us dream, let us dream that together we’ll find our freedom, let us dream, let us dream Take us high so we fly like a dove singing desolated melodies Even when all is said and done Pacify all our cries as we stand in the shadow holding dignity And we’re faced with the end of your gun Butterflies help us rise, holding our minds, all the time, till we find children dying We don’t buy all the lies of your compromise, we hold the line, tell us why you deny us We’re spinning, spinning, spinning faster Falling, falling, falling harder The children, become so much darker when you rule We’re spinning, spinning, spinning faster, You punish, punish, punish harder The children have lost all their fathers by your hands Let us be, let us be free to sleep in peace, Let us be, Let us be Let us dream, let us dream that together we’ll find our freedom, let us dream, let us dream

Run River 05:32
Yesterday I fell in love with the world Yesterday I found my place in the world There’s an ache my heart that seeps through skin and lingers on And it started to sing on the day that I left behind, my Father’s home Time slips by, slowly, while this age will fade away I see mistakes, but they don’t own me, anymore He loosened the cords, that held me to The end of the score that we danced to Everyday I fall in love with the world Everyday I look for space in the world As I fall down again I wonder why we must be so incomplete Then I hear all the echoes that still resonate in me of Eden The mountain shapes, will fool you, from this view, let’s make them smooth Take your time, to reawaken, tenderly, my soul from sleep Run river on, to flow between The past to the song that lives in me
