It Is Real 03:11
I remember you, everything and more But it's not as if we've done this all done this before It's okay it happens, it's okay to feel It's all right and it's real It is real, it is real I'm afraid, afraid to go asleep Don't want to dream this up or forget we ever met It's okay it happens, it's okay to feel It's all right and it's real This is real, this is real I did not see it coming, it took me by surprise You won't know what hits you, before you try It is great it happens, it's so good to feel This is life and it's real And it happens only here It happens only now my dear It all comes down to this Yes, it happens only now It's happening to us somehow It seems that ignorance is bliss But this is real, this is real This is real, it is real

I too fell in love with you I was struck by the fire in your eyes Held your hands when you spoke to me Wake up it is time to arise You wanted me to come with you And you told me how it could be When I arrive for you take me home You would be there waiting for me And you save me whenever you're near I was lost when you found me dear You save me, dry my tears I tried to walk and I found my feet At the dawn of another new day You took me dancing in the streets To a soul said to lead me astray You tell the truth to a single chord And I'm ready now to believe Touched by the flame and I'm born again For the message send is received And you save me whenever you're near I was lost when you found me dear You save me and you dry my tears You make me I need to go with you to places yet unknown Show me where to go How to find you ' Cause you save me, you save me, you save me, you save me You save me Whenever I fear, I trust in you to find me dear You save me and you dry my tears You make me

Alone 02:27
Away to waters, dark and deep I ventured in a little boat The wind lay still And swift afloat I sailed in silence All alone Looked around and saw A fish that shimmered through the waves A bird that flew into a haze And I sat in my boat And thought A fish that shimmers through the waves A bird that flies into a haze And me, here in my boat

Little Kid 03:09
Like a little kid, bitten by a kiss Boy, I thought I had a way with words But I'm out of luck, I've been thunderstruck Did she really say what I just heard? Acting like a fool My god I'm back at school As silly then, as I am today Never had the looks Only read in books What a hero is supposed to say What a way to go What a way to start Sad and wise, but still young at heart If you repeat your line I will make up mine Shoot the scene and we will both be stars Every little kid could have done what I just did But boy it takes a man not to mess it up again Become what you're supposed When everybody knows; you only get your try once or twice Say the words, sing your life, tell the truth I want you Silly little kid, take a look at this A couple frozen in a sunset kiss It's the final frame and it bares your name Make it whole and let the credits roll

I heard this before When love walks through the door It lifts me up, but it leaves me on the floor It changes promises to blame and our fortune into pain And oh, the pain If this what you're here for, then Say you'll need more You'll just be my mirror, till the end If this is what you want dear, then Say you'll always stay near Swear you'll always be here, till the end 'Cause I heard this before When love walks through the door It lifts me up, but it leaves me on the floor Changes promises to blame and our fortune into pain And oh, the pain If staying's what you want love 'Cause sure that's what you think of But will you have that same thought, in the end For all that is remaining of everything we're feigning will be the old explaining, in the end 'Cause I heard this before When love walks through the door It lifts me up, but it leaves me on the floor Changes promises to blame and our fortune into pain But I hope it's my time again

Longe Gone 04:43
Here it comes, oh no That battle hum, oh no You can pick a fight in an empty room, like some Or find your peace, then run Long gone, that simple song That simple line, it lingers on You're the first one to stir that drum You can't go wrong So come along You're out of luck, oh no You've heard enough, oh no And you know the sound, but the words don't come across Though you try to hide, you cannot fight it off And you say: Long gone, that simple song That simple line, well it lingers on You're the first one to stir that drum You can't go wrong So come along Long gone Long gone Long gone

about

Solo Utrecht, Netherlands

It's quite simple, really. Solo (Michiel Flamman, Simon Gitsels backed by Reyer Zwart and Rowin Tettero) has one goal and one goal only: a song can only see the light of day when it's perfect. Solo is always in search of a "Timeless Melody". In the Netherlands, Solo's music has become a hallmark of pop songs with a golden glow. ... more
