Late Bloomer (Radio Edit)

Written by Ellen Pels on 10/13/2020. Posted in Late Bloomer.

I feared I would not fit
I’m not young and gorgeous
I just could not make it
One ought to be flawless

But somewhere inside me
There is this desire
I’ve tested and tried me
Can not put out the fire

I am a late bloomer
But now I am sublime
I am a late bloomer
I really took my time
I am a late bloomer

I’m doubtful, uncertain
Afraid, quite unsure
I dropped the fire curtain
And followed the lure

I am a late bloomer
But now I am sublime
I am a late bloomer
I really took my time
I am a late bloomer

Not all of us get a wake up call
Not all of us grab our chance
You don’t have to become 10 feet tall
Or have a whirwind romance
Listen to the voice inside
Know it isn’t all fantasy
If you haven’t truly tried
It will all be a fallacy

I am a late bloomer
But now I am sublime
I am a late bloomer
I really took my time
I am a late bloomer
But now I am sublime
I am a late bloomer
I really took my time
I am a late bloomer

No Regrets

Written by Ellen Pels on 10/12/2020. Posted in Late Bloomer.

Time is running out
Why are you waiting
Stop playing about
Your days are abating

You’ve got to move
You’ve got to make your dreams come true
No time to waste
So much to look forward to

Don’t be afraid
Just face your fears
Lots to evade
Better than tears

You’ve got to move
You’ve got to make your dreams come true
No time to waste
So much to look forward to

Have no regrets
No regrets

Your heart’s desire
Your soul will know
Your inner fire
Your eyes aglow

You’ve got to move
You’ve got to make your dreams come true
No time to waste
So much to look forward to

Have no regrets
No regrets

You’ve got to move
You’ve got to make your dreams come true
No time to waste
So much to look forward to

Simply a man

Written by Ellen Pels on 10/12/2020. Posted in Single.

A Guru you are not
But a man with a beard
Donning a cape and a crown
The wisdom you have brought
The miracles that appeared
Have touched me deep down

You are a Father, an Artist,
the head of a clan
But all in all, you are simply a Man
Incomplete and unbalanced
Mixed up and confused
Moody and funny and often amused
Imperfect and Whole
Heart and Soul

You spread your light
Create warmth in my heart
But still you trip and fall
In your own right
You make fine art
And inspire all

(Bridge)
Stay with me and Share
Your sounds and your stones
Your symbols and your Lines
I will say a Prayer
For your skin and bones
To enjoy many good times

(modulatie)
You’re not a man of means
Yet Royalty you meet
And Gifts, and Talents too
You speak with Kings and Queens
Of what is incomplete
And who is leading whom

You are a Father, an Artist, the head of a clan
But all in all, you are simply a Man
Incomplete and unbalanced
Mixed up and confused
Moody and funny and often amused
Imperfect and whole
Heart and Soul
Imperfect and whole
Heart and Soul
Imperfect and whole
Heart and Soul

Dragonflies ft. Prequisite

Written by Ellen Pels on 10/12/2020. Posted in Single.

Some day when the dragonflies fly
Some day when her time has gone by
Leaving the lake behind

Some day when the nymphs cannot see
Some day when het soul’s roaming free
Her spirit is not confined

That’s when our souls will dance forever
‘Round the fire together
We will colour the stars
That’s when our souls will dance forever
‘Round the fire together
We will colour the stars

Some day when the ashes blow by
Some day when she’s no longer nigh
She’s left us with all her grace

That day will be filled with light and love
That day we will reunite

That’s when our souls will dance forever
‘Round the fire together
We will colour the stars
That’s when our souls will dance forever
‘Round the fire together
We will colour the stars
That’s when our souls will dance forever
‘Round the fire together
We will colour the stars
That’s when our souls will dance forever
‘Round the fire together
We will colour the stars

Tell me

Written by Ellen Pels on 10/12/2020. Posted in Love.

When I heard that you were leaving
Once I’d learned that you would go
My whole world fell apart
No I won’t stop believing
Refuse to see that it is so
Can’t bear my breaking heart

Tell me, that it’s not true
Show me, what I can do
Can’t live in this world without you
Tell me, that it’s not true

Now I know that you are going
I must try to understand
There’s nothing I can change
Try to stop myself from showing
Fate has the upper hand
Facts I want to rearrange

Tell me, that it’s not true
Show me, what I can do
Can’t live in this world without you
Tell me, that it’s not true

But you haven’t left yet
You are still around
Let us spend this time together
Like a treasure we have found
Golden hours in this daytime
Special whispers in the night
Memories that I can cherish
Holding on with all my might

Tell me, that it’s not true
Show me, what I can do
Can’t live in this world without you
Tell me, that it’s not true

Rain

Written by Ellen Pels on 10/12/2020. Posted in Love.

As I stand here
And feel the water
Running down my face
I wash my innocent hands
Hoping to clear myself from disgrace

My conscience is sitting near my ear
Telling me all that I did wrong
It burdens my heart to acknowledge
My mistakes all along

Rain
Sweet rain
Wash away my airs
Wash away the years
Rain
Sweet rain
Wash away my fears
And the tears

Over and over and over again
I catch myself being petty and cruel
I ought to know better
But I keep behaving like a fool

I intend to be kind-hearted
In every possible way
But I keep on failing, tripping, falling
On my face every day

Rain
Sweet rain
Wash away my airs
Wash away the years
Rain
Sweet rain
Wash away my fears
And the tears

My Sweet Love

Written by Ellen Pels on 10/12/2020. Posted in Love.

You grew up in the outdoors
On your bike or climbing trees
While the Beatles sang
I wanna hold your hand
On your record player
He’d scream sweet child in time
We saw the world
In shades of black and white

Yes we are growing old
Yet you’re still a sight to behold
You’re like fine wine
My sweet love
My sweet love

When I see your wrinkles
And the lines around your eyes
The creases
A road map of your whole life
Each furrow has a meaning
There’s a story in every line
Revealing
Part of your history

Yes we are growing old
Yet you’re still a sight to behold
You’re a classic
My sweet love
My sweet love

Yes we are growing old
Yet you’re still a sight to behold
You are vintage
My sweet love
Yes we are growing old
Yet you’re still a sight to behold
You are timeless
My sweet love
My sweet love

Love and music

Written by Ellen Pels on 10/12/2020. Posted in Love.

That feeling after a gourmet dinner
Or placing a bet and backing a winner
A brand new dress with matching shoes
Being pampered on a luxury cruise

But in the end
When push comes to shove
All that really truly matters is
Love and music
Love and music

The feeling of a good massage
An evening out with my entourage
A dip in the pool in my back yard
The smell of the inside of my new car

When worlds collide
And everything is lost
All that really truly matters is
Love and music

Home

Written by Ellen Pels on 10/12/2020. Posted in Love.

It is time for me to leave
I am going back home
Back to my roots
Back to my source
Back to where I came from

It is time for me to leave
I am going back home
|I’ll let you know I’m well
Although I do not know

If you can read my writing
Don’t miss me or be sad
I’ll hold you in my heart
As I know you will too

In a while you’ll come
We can re-connect
Know that I am happy

It is time for me to leave
I am going back home
I’ll remember why I came
I’ll remember what I learned
And what I had to offer

It is time for me to leave
I am going back home
I’ll travel through the dawn
Towards the east
Towards the light

Wounded Heart

Written by Ellen Pels on 10/11/2020. Posted in Late Bloomer.

She feels so lost, she feels very alone
Leads a hard life, all on her own
Keeps them away, and lets nobody in
Concerning love, knows not where to begin

Wounded Heart Wounded Heart
Can not trust anyone

I am so lucky in Love, in Love
I have discovered The One, The One
For me he is state of the art
I trust him with my life, my heart
I am so lucky in Love, in Love

He works so hard, can not feel anything
Can’t be alone, he will know the hurting
He laughs so loud, so that no one can tell
He may seem fun, but inside it’s like hell

Wounded Heart Wounded Heart
Can not love anyone

I am so lucky in Love, in Love
I have discovered The One, The One
For me he is state of the art
I trust him with my life, my heart
I am so lucky in Love, in Love
