about

This girl feels homesick both when she's away and when she's at 'home'. But deep inside she feels happy anywhere in the world.

lyrics

All my fingers are cold
It really hurts to take the milk out
I need a bit to lighten up the

Tea I made to warm up
It’s still too hot to take sip
But the smell let’s me dream

I leave the house with my coat on
but soon I realize
That I don’t need nothing else
To keep me warm inside

The streets dry up there’s light sunshine

All my memories inside
I take a box out with some photographs
It’s only seconds till I’m back again in

My old house right behind
the cherry tree I liked to sit in

In my heart and all around the world

I leave the house with my coat on
but soon I realize
That I don’t need nothing else
To keep me warm inside

The streets dry up there’s light sunshine

I feel your hand on mine like a cigarette on my skin

I’ve been there so many times before
It’s still not getting any better
I put my shoes on and

I'm here to write, perform and spread music that has its roots in pop with influences from soul, jazz and folk rock. Ever since I discovered the guitar as a means to express my feelings in 1985, I'm constantly refining and clearing the channel through which I receive, digest and send out music. I recorded "The Endless Stream Of Everything" to share my love and songs with you. ... more
