Limited edition CD's en brieven. Handgemaakt met liefde in Barcelona. Nederlandse versie.

Een vader en zijn dochter zakten weg in een diep zwart gat tijdens de Corona lockdown in hartje Vlaanderen. Ze kwamen op het idee om brieven en liedjes naar mekaar te schrijven in de hoop om samen uit de duisternis te klimmen. Deze beperkte uitgave van "Enveloppen Vol Liedjes & Verhalen" brengt de twee samen, en vertelt een pakkend verhaal over
liefde en intieme tederheid in tijden van kille afstand.

lyrics

This town is larger than it seems
with curvy roads leading us to nowhere
the rebel and the poet are nowhere to be seen
this town ain't big enough for dreams.
I walk along the fields of corn
where we used to make a labyrinth
angry farmers chased us
while we were chasing dreams
mothers gave us shelter without knowing of our sins.
This town is larger than it seems
endless plains drawing the horizon
no theatre, no movies, no dance and no extremes
this town ain't big enough for dreams.
The little school upon the hill
where we learned with effort how to write
the rigid teacher taught us
how to obey the rules
she didn't find the time to tell the story of the light.
This town is larger than it seems
this town ain’t big enough for dreams.
