First day of autumn
All songs Lucy Prasad / Philippe Perelman
First day of autumn
First day of autumn
Coming to an end and then returning
I’m nothing but a leaf
My colours turning, turning
I’m nothing but a leaf
Forever falling, falling
My eyes are closed
and I’m light and careless
I’ve lost my balance
and I’ve lost my bearings
First First day of autumn
Tugging at my strings and calling, calling
I’m nothing but a leaf
My colours turning, turning
I’m nothing but a leaf
Forever falling, falling
My eyes are closed,
I’m on the verge of blending
right into this autumn
That is never never ending
First first day of autumn
Coming to an end and then returning
I’m nothing but a leaf
My colours turning, turning
I’m nothing but a leaf
Forever falling, falling Falling
Snap (like a fan) [Piano version]
No use remembering what’s turned to smoke
Kill off the memories all in one stroke
Give up the remedies won’t stand a chance
Breathe in the melody of this little dance
One two three, one two three, whispering low
One two three, one two three, waltzing alone
Nothing will hurt me again
‘Cause I can close myself up snap like a fan
I’ll be untouchable keep the suspense
So unapproachable behind my fence
I’ll be a mystery rolled like a scroll
Re-write my history repair my soul
One two three, one two three who cares what’s next ?
One two three, one two three tucked in my nest
Nothing will hurt me again
‘Cause I can close myself up snap like a fan
Running downstairs, holding my breath
Floating on air Flowing white dress
So unsuspecting The sun in my eyes
Never expecting To crash into ice
Mean little trap One two three Snap
One two three, one two three, a lifetime ago
One two three, one two three, time to let go
Nothing can hurt me again
‘Cause I can close myself up snap like a fan
One two three, one two three, blanking my face
One two three, one two three, leaving no trace
Nothing will hurt me again
‘Cause I can close myself up snap like a fan.
In times long gone
All songs Lucy Prasad/Philippe Perelman
In times long gone
I lost all hope and I made a spell
I threw your love in a wishing well
In times long gone
I watched it sink as I called your name
I held my breath but you never came
In times long gone
In times long gone
In times long gone when your love was born
A word was wrong on a page half-torn
In times long gone on a sweeping wave
I brought your love to my secret cave
I held it close and I watched it bleed
Your wounded love that you didn’t need
In times long gone
It stood no chance but it was so brave
Your drowning love that you didn’t save
In times long gone In
times long gone
In times long gone when your love was born
A word was wrong on a page half-torn
In times long gone on a sweeping wave
I brought your love to my secret cave
A sacred rock had a missing rune
A silent wolf heard a howling moon
I sat all night by a fragile flame
I kept it warm but you never came
you never came
And there it was, just a coin to toss
Your broken love that became my cross
In times long gone
And there I was, out of magic tricks
Without your love that I couldn’t fix
In times long gone
In times long gone
In times long gone when your love was born
A word was wrong on a page half-torn
In times long gone on a sweeping wave
I brought your love to my secret cave
In times long gone
In times long gone
In times long gone
In times long gone
Fugitive words (Brazilian mix)
In my books there are gardens of heartbreak and loss
Where I walk under bridges covered in moss
I would read them to you
but I can’t find the words
To explain what they mean, the books in my world
In my streets you will find no footprints or signs
You can wander for miles, not a soul in sight
I would show you the way
but I can’t find the words
To explain where they lead, the streets in my world
Out of my reach, like scared little birds
Flying away from my strange little world
Got to let them escape, got to leave them unheard
My beautiful fugitive words
In my dreams I’m adrift on a slow, slow tide
I’m alone with the wind and the silence of time
I would tell you the truth
but I can’t find the words
To explain why I feel so alone in my world
Out of my reach, like scared little birds
Flying away from my strange little world
Got to let them escape, got to leave them unheard
My beautiful fugitive words
Snap (Like a fan)
No use remembering what’s turned to smoke
Kill off the memories all in one stroke
Give up the remedies won’t stand a chance
Breathe in the melody of this little dance
One two three, one two three, whispering low

Nothing will hurt me again
‘Cause I can close myself up snap like a fan
I’ll be untouchable keep the suspense
So unapproachable behind my fence
I’ll be a mystery rolled like a scroll
Re-write my history repair my soul
One two three, one two three who cares what’s next ?
One two three, one two three tucked in my nest
Nothing will hurt me again

All true
Your smoky reflection will tear up my mind A flick of your wrist and I trigger a mine Your cryptic desires leave me no wiser Your touch is a shot of my tranquilizer
I’m learning your code, re-learning to talk On dangerous grounds together we walk You’re stalking my dreams, tracing my shadow Take out my heart and I’ll hand you an arrow
It’s you versus love And me versus you Can we make it all true
It’s you versus love And me versus you Can we make it all true all true all true
Pieces don’t fit Through your mazes I crawl Sink in your ocean defeated and small If you want me at all Once and for all I’ll be with you In endless relentless Free fall
It’s you versus love And me versus you Can we make it all true
It’s you versus love And me versus you Can we make it all true all true all true
I am
I’m a foreign word you don’t feel like learning I’m a thought that escapes you without forming I’m a stranger you pass in the street, not turning Someone nameless, homeless, in need of warming
I’m a caption you cut from a silent movie A forgotten track that you don’t mind skipping
I am (x2)
I’m a beggar staring down unmoving In a memory you’ve got no room for keeping I’m a cry for help but you don’t hear me calling I’m a snowflake you never notice falling
I am (x3)
I’m a quiet child you go on ignoring Once a year receiving your thoughtless presents On your map I’m a place not worth exploring I’m a dream locked up in your sleeping presence
I am (x2)
I’m a magic spell that you won’t be learning I’m a saving prayer you won’t be hearing I’m an angel who’ll pass over you, not turning Someone glowing, beautiful and unfearing.
I am (x4)
Mocha
You’re such an awesome mix, the best of nature’s tricks The best genetic pool-- oo oo You rule
A hot exotic drink, not a single missing link Where others stand in line-- You shine
Sometimes the clouds won’t scatter Don’t ever let it matter
Never go undercover, never hide in your locker Never change your true colour Mocha (x2)
Ignore the sticks and stones, this world is not for clones So make your every streak Unique
Sometimes the going gets tougher Don’t ever blend in and suffer
Never go undercover, never hide in your locker Never change your true colour Mocha (x2)
A bit of everything, not a single boring thing Where others fade so fast-- You last
Nothing you need to fix, already such a cool mix Already top notch design oo oo So shine
Sometimes the clouds won’t scatter Don’t ever let it matter
Never go undercover, never hide in your locker Never change your true colour Mocha (x3)
Never go undercover, Never hide in your locker Never change your true colour Never change your true colour Never change your true colour Mocha
Millions out there
When I die, there’ll be millions out there turning off their light Not because of my death but because it’ll be night There’ll be millions out there with a catch in their breath At the sight of the stars, not the news of my death
When I’m gone, there’ll be heartbreak and tears flowing on Just because such is life, not because I’ll be gone There’ll be millions out there wearing black for a while Not to mourn me but simply to try a new style
Like I’ve never existed, the world will go on Never pausing to notice the fact that I’m gone All the years measured out to me on this earth Swept away to make room for another one’s birth
When I die, there’ll be millions out there turning off their light Not because of my death but because it’ll be night There’ll be millions out there with a catch in their breath At the sight of the stars, not the news of my death there’ll be millions out there
Lana Del Rey
The air in your bedroom is soaked in regret You’re trying to stretch your last cigarette The night keeps on swinging from black to grey And you’re losing yourself in Lana Del Rey
Her voice is drowning the rain outside Your bed is so cold on the other side There’s nothing left for you but to pray To the heartbreak world of Lana Del Rey
You’re feeling bewitched You’re coming unstitched To the sound of her songs That you keep on replay to dododo oh Lana Del Rey Lana Del Rey
The sun never rises, the moon never sets You’re barely surviving without cigarettes You’re getting addicted to being astray In the heartbreak world of Lana Del Rey
You’re feeling derailed Reality frayed To the sound of her songs That you keep on replay to dododo oh Lana Del Rey Lana Del Rey
She's a knife in your heart, she’s twisting in deep But you welcome the pain and the end of your sleep The sadness of summers, the torment of springs You were born to die every time that she sings that she sings
She’s all that you have and you’ll never betray The wounded eyes of Lana Del Rey No bright blue sky and no ocean spray In the world that you share with Lana Del Rey
tododo todododo to do do do do do do Ô the sound of her songs That you keep on replay to dododo oh Lana Del Rey Lana Del Rey Lana Del Rey
Leave it all behind (single version)
One day you catch a train, you take a window seat
the ground is swept away from underneath your feet.
There’s nothing on your mind, and nothing in your hands,
you leave it all behind, your universe expands
Beyond the railway tracks, beyond the Milky Way
your destination waits.
No need to say goodbye, no need to make amends
Your heart is free to fly, your heart is on the mend
You leave it all behind (x4)
You watch the sun go down, you watch the sun come up,
Your days and nights, they drown inside your coffee cup.
Along deserted streets where no one climbs aboard,
you see the million dreams that you could not afford
You leave it all behind (x4)
You leave it all behind
Their fading silhouettes
You leave it all behind
Graffiti on your mind
You leave it all behind
You leave it all behind
In my head (folktronic version)
So many things are not allowed In my head
So many things will hurt my brain
Sometimes I will let only clouds In my head
But only those that never rain
Sometimes I like to make things true In my head
And even I will find them strange
But all I want is having you In my head
And I’m afraid that this won’t change
A fantasy that I let grow In my head
An evergreen exotic tree
And everything is sweet and slow In my head
The only way that things can be
A secret place that I can go In my head
A secret place for you and me
I make it true with magic spells In my head
There’s not a thing that’s out of bounds
There’s you and me and nothing else In my head
Except when I let in some clouds
