Mr. Fresh, you look so fly
In that Convie Life.
Coming in hot, babe
I have been running these old engines
Coming in hot, dear
I have been burning out in lockdown
Super superstar

Mr. Fresh, you look so fly
In that Convie Life.
A fortune teller once told me
A long, long time ago
You have a big heart that will guide you
And there you will always find home.
When I find myself drifting and lost
I have learned to close my eyes
And like that old wanderer told me
Home is right under these skies.

1995
Andrei
Coming down with another case
Of the blues
All I have to do is look at you
Carry me through this night
In the morning glancing over
At the window sill
The warriors are with me still
And it will be alright
Lonely whispers, oh lonesome whispers
Gently moving through my mind
Breaking through the silence
The doorbell rings
You smile and tell me, darling
I am just passing by
To say hey, and that I am on your side
I know, it is love
The feeling grows everyday
So high, like it is 1995.
Living with this heartache
Is not the easiest thing
So I sing to anyone listening
The light still shines for you
Lonely whispers, oh lonesome whispers
Gently moving through my mind
Breaking through the silence
The doorbell rings
You smile and tell me, darling
I am just passing by
To say hey, and that I am on your side
I know, it is love
The feeling grows everyday
So high, like it is 1995.
So I pull myself together
And answer the door
You smile and tell me, sugar …

Bet Bet Bet
Andrei
This auditory substance, these waves in the air
They can mend your emotions from love to despair
For years and years, we have synthesized and created
Something so simple to be translated.
You don’t know the fire that’s burning in me
You don’t see the light that shines through me
You don’t feel the storm that’s rising in me
Momma, am I really dying?
Wake up now!
Let me take you down to the other side of town
Where you can strut your stuff all night, baby, you’ll be fine.
There is time for one last high before I need to say goodbye
You know I live with no regrets, you better bet.
Deep beneath the waves, embedded in the caves
The remnants of a past reverberate.
The deserts never change, the wind howls in vain
Across the dunes of sand falls no rain.
Smother the life that pulses inside of me
Smother the feelings of hopeless ecstasy
Drown them out in a sea of stern realities
My city will sleep, child…
Momma, am I really dying?
Wake up now!
Let me take you down to my favorite part of town
Where you can strut your stuff all night, baby, you’ll be fine.
There is time for one last high before you’ll see me wave goodbye
You know I live with no regrets, you better bet.
I want to see the smile
At the first sunrise
I want to feel the love
Before disguise
I can’t quite describe
All the threads in my mind
And it’s quite liberating
To snap off their bind
Momma, am I really dying?
Wake up now!

Stranger Than Your Imagination
Andrei
Open up
Open up darling, we need to talk
I want to know
If you know
That I’m stranger than your imagination
Take me down
Take me down to the depths of your soul
Where I hide
Where I strive
Where I’m stranger than your imagination
When I am under
I can fly soaring high
When it is over
I won’t cry
You are by my side
And the warriors are here
Goodbye, until the next time.
Hang your thoughts
Hang your heavy thoughts
Let them run
Run into mine
And turn strange
Stranger than your imagination
When I am under
I can fly soaring high
When it is over
I won’t cry
You are by my side.
And the warriors are here
Goodbye, until the next time.
You weaken my walls
And take me to the limit
You taught me how to be myself
To be stranger than your imagination.

So Long (Roll On)
Andrei
I have been roaming around
I have been hunting these grounds
For so long
My horse keeps on trotting
To this sound, and what have I have found?
So long, my darling
I owe it all to you
We gave it all we had
But so long, sweet darling
I hate to say it is true
But take the good with the bad
And roll on.
You have been running these fields
You have been chasing these dreams
For so long
Now that it is all right in front of you
Where you stand, I know that you can.
So long, my darling
I owe it all to you
Everything I know
But so long, sweet darling
I will send my love to you
But we must let go
And roll on.
I have been running the nights on this road
Like a tourist in life … not for so long.
Come on baby, I want to get you smiling
Inside you’re all alone
Something has got to give for love
Come on baby because I ain’t lying
I praise you up high
Something has got to give tonight.
So long, my darling
I owe it all to you
We gave it all we had
But so long, sweet darling
I hate to say it is true
But take the good with the bad
And roll on.

Rest My Soul
Andrei
Lonely days are here
Soaking through the years
Calling to the stratosphere
Hey-a hey, hey-a hey!
The echo chamber of my mind
Is hollow without the heavy grind
And it’s scary spooky to listen to it whine
Boy-o boy, boy-o boy!
When all is said and done
Life is just more fun
When you’re by my side to share it
When the day is through
No matter what I’ll do
There’s only one way to bear it
I rest my soul on you.
Feeling my shadow getting tall
Voices bouncing off the walls
And I’m laughing at nothing at all
Lordy-Lord, Lordy-Lord!
When all is said and done
Life is just more fun
When you’re by my side to share it
When the day is through
No matter what I’ll do
There’s only one way to bear it
I rest my soul on you.
I wonder when
You will understand
How I really am
There are so many blocks
That turn with the clocks
Are you listening?
Love is my discipline.

Nu Te Supara
Andrei
Out there in the window of smoke
In the firelight of old
There is a glimmer of hope
Where there is mud, there is gold
Oh so clearly, you speak to me
As I follow you to the sea
Take me from this city
No, there is no one else with me
I am the call, I am the waterfall
You are the storm
That rattles and wakes my bones
I am the snow, you are the afterglow
Don’t let go, it is not easy to make it alone.
Nu te supara
Doar tu esti comoara mea
Nu te supara
Las totul pentru tine, draga mea
Nu te supara
Doar tu imi dai dragostea
Hai, nu mai fi asa
Te vreau la Dor De Mare toata vara.
Out there in the corner of doubt
In the whisper of a shout
There is a quarter of faith
With patience, you must wait
So clearly, you speak to me
As I follow you to the sea
Take me from this city
No, there is no one else with me.
In the strangest of times
In the depths of our minds
There is principal and shame
There is poverty, desire, and fame
I am the snow, you are the afterglow
Don’t let go, it is not easy to make it alone.

Pen Pal
Andrei
I’ve been looking all day and night
I’ve been searching far and wide
All along running through my brain
Like exquisite champagne
It dawned upon me that it won’t take much
Just a little bit of warm light touch
And a song running through my head
Let’s jump onto your bed.
Will you write me your letter?
Be my pen pal
Will you tell me you love me
In a book?
Will you seal it with Jazmin?
Mi querida,
Close your eyes and there you’ll find me
By the nook.
In the morning, I just cannot wait
My delivery better not be late
Or I cry until the midnight sky
For the apple of my eye.
Will you write me your letter?
Be my pen pal
Will you tell me you love me
In a book?
Will you seal it with Jazmin?
Mi bonita,
Close your eyes and there you’ll find me
By the nook.
All you have to do is take it slow
Just relax and the words will flow
I know it’s on every street
Dreamers soon will meet
There are so many things I’ve come to find
No, this is not another rhyme with mind
Without music there is not much appeal
“Sounds that make you feel” (BHJ).

Why Do You Cry
Andrei
Why do you cry, Sunny
Are you feeling down or did you fall in love?
Why don’t you sing to me, Sunny?
Even though it hurts, you know that I want more.
A startling turn of events
Has caught you underprepared
And you don’t believe in angels anymore
Through the struggle for meaning
That has turned so demeaning
Who can tell you what it is you’re fighting for?
Who can tell you what you’re fighting for?
Why hang your head down, Sunny
Are you feeling lost or overwhelmed with choice?
Why don’t you speak to me, dear Sunny?
Even though it hurts, I long to hear your voice… again
As your fortress submerges
A strange life form emerges
And you don’t believe in angels anymore
For some reason, the surface
Gives you a false sense of purpose
Who can tell you what it is you’re fighting for?
Who can tell you what you’re fighting for?
A bitter taste in your mouth
That you can’t quite figure out
Why are we afraid to look in each other’s eyes?
When your engines are fading
It’s only a matter of waiting
Don’t let your own wheels drag you down, my friend
Don’t let your own wheels drag you down.
Why do you cry, Sunny?
We said our goodbyes a long, long time ago.

Calvarium
Andrei
Get on down to the business honey
Won’t you get on down to the show
Get on down and don’t tease me honey
Won’t you get on down with the flow
Get on down it’s so easy peasy
Won’t you get on down to the show
Get on down it’s like lemon squeezy
Won’t you get on down with this flow
Life feels so unusual when you’re gone
My mind is fragile inside your calvarium
Get on down to the business honey
Won’t you get on down to the show
Get on down and don’t tease me honey
Won’t you get on down with the flow
Get on down it’s so easy peasy
Won’t you get on down to the show
Get on down little lemon squeezy
Won’t you get on down with this flow
Freedom goes so far as my aquarium
But my mind is not confined to your calvarium
Get on down to the business honey
Won’t you get on down to the show
Get on down little tease now honey
Won’t you get on down with the flow
Get on down it’s so easy peasy
Won’t you get on down to the show
Get on down little lemon squeezy
Won’t you get on down with this flow.

Fire Island
Andrei
All my life, I’ve been a fool
For loving you the way I do
All my life, I’ve been a wreck
I’ve watched our treasure slowly
Dissipate
On Fire Island.
Will this be our last embrace?
Don’t let your love be misplaced
We’re all victims of our nature
We’re all victims of our taste
On Fire Island.
There is no point trying to change
Trying to be like someone else
Take a closer look inside
Make the best out of yourself
On Fire Island …

Eternal Carousel
Andrei
The world snaps at the seams
Are you surprised?
Power does not come without a price
We ask that you all
Duly sacrifice
Truth does not command as well as lies.
Say hello to your mind
You’re floating on a satellite
Blind spell, eternal carousel
We know you better than you know yourself.
There is no time to cry
And fuss about
You are the product we cannot live without
If you dare to fancy a hint of doubt
You’re free to join the outcasts on the hideout.
Say hello to your mind
You’re floating on a satellite
Blind spell, eternal carousel
We know you better than you know yourself.
The parallels converge
The brain and the soul merge
Behold my dear, a strange new life form
Is ready to emerge
Has our time run out?
I stand and shout
Are you with me now?
Say hello to your mind
You’re floating on a satellite
Blind spell, eternal carousel
We know you better than you know yourself.
Questions with no answers are better
Than answers you cannot question …
My dear friend.

To The River
Andrei
Why don’t you take me to the river
Where you once showed me how to cry?
Why won’t you lead me to the river
Where you once held me through the night?
With every year that goes by
The memory still remains
But even though I try
It does not feel quite the same.
Why don’t you take me to the river
Down that old winding slippery trail?
Why won’t you lead me to that river
Where I was blinded and my soul was frail?
With every year that goes by
I wonder what remains
And God knows I try
But nothing feels quite the same.
Streams of youth flowed through my veins
I was flying on the express train
Give me loving give me precious time
You went down like the finest wine
Low riding, too fast
Our love was like a flash
I am stranded in time
I cannot snap out of its bind.
With every year that goes by
And all the time that remains
I will cherish in my mind
When we stood in that midnight rain
With the magic in your eyes
And the love that was unrestrained
God only knows I have tried
To go there once again … to the river.
Why won’t you lead me to the river?
Where you can find me for all of time.
