LOOKING THROUGH THE HOLE (XOEL LÓPEZ)

Looking through the hole all seems to be smaller
There´re cars and toys that I will never have
Out of this door there´re kids but here I´m the only one


Looking through the hole doesn´t seems they were wondering
All things I´m asking myself everytime
A house is a home and I´d like to be there all the time

 

 

MY BEAUTIFUL THING (XOEL LÓPEZ)

Well you know I have not a day to loose
If I think to stay and try to change the world
If I´m feeling down I just have to wait
The time when you come could make everything change
You know you´re the reason why I feel so fine
´Cause you´re my beautiful thing

Buildings that have made just to be destroied
Roses have grown to dead on the flower base
As I feel the end of some little things
I can feel the time bringing more happiness

Estribillo

Goodbye to the things that I left behind
Welcome to the world younger now than before
If I´m feeling down I just have to wait
The time when you come could make everything change

Let´s change the world
You close to me
You´ve changed my mind
That´s reality
Let´s change the world
Let´s move our feet
Let´s find the love for the eternity

Estribillo

DESTROY ANOTHER (PIECE OF THE OTHERS) (XOEL LÓPEZ)

Destroy another piece of the others
Master mind of saturday nights
Desperated, get what you want

Go to the club now,
back in the morning
Remember that you slide in the grass
Stumbling with the same stone two times

Words like stones to the little fish
Buildings will can make you feel small
Growing to feed the birds of your mind
infected by noises of something that you left behind

Making some questions, changing the answers
As you change the foot when you walk
Here comes tomorrow again


Here comes tomorrow, it comes from somewhere
As heavy step on your foot
Stumbling with the same stone two times


Words like stones to the little fish
Buildings will can make you feel small
Growing to feed the birds of your mind
infected by noises of something that you left behind

Hang on the guns there
Hang on the taxes by now
I will go, I will never back
I do it the best I can

 

 

TILL MY BOAT BREAKS (XOEL LÓPEZ)

Do you think I am happy?
What do you think about you?
I just look for the answer
it´s the same you do

Do you think I´m tired?
Yes I´m thirsty and sad
I´ve been adding some water
in a paper cup

Nobody seems to care
But do I really care?
To be here and still fighting
Or lied on my bed

Do you think I am happy?
What do you think about you?
I´ve been adding some water
it´s the same you do

I´m sailing
I´ll find the root
Till my boat breaks
I´m still here

Nobody seems to care
But do I really care?
To be here and still fighting
Or lied on my bed

Maybe if I get some money
Or I cut my hair
If I live as the people
I could rest my legs

Estribillo

There´s no mercy for the guilty
Not today
Maybe you won´t be here tomorrow
Enjoy this day
The hasty you will find
It will be your reward

Xoel López: Voz, bajo, guit acústica, guit eléctrica.
Jose Martínez: Batería.

 

FOR MYSELF (XOEL LÓPEZ)

Many things you know that I have left
I´ve found new places only for myself
You think I´m not young but I am

And you´ll think I do it for my pride
But I´m sure I will succeed at last
You think that I´ll fail
But I´ll stand

´Cause I spent so many time
Telling you all my secrets
Tell me what I get from you
Now my feelings are stronger
Don´t you know I´m learning
Don´t think I´m getting older
Is not what I´m pretending
But you can understand something

Now I won´t ask you anymore
You will never tell me if it´s wrong
You´ll think I´m the best
´Cause I am

I´ll promise I´ll never spend my time
Holding up things I really don´t mind
Now I make the work for myself

Xoel López: Voz, guit. eléctrica, cuerdas y sintetizador.
Oscar Álvarez: Bajo.
Juan Gil: Korg Mono/Poly, cuerdas y piano.
Maria Naranjo: Cuerdas.
Jose Martínez: Batería.

 

 

I'LL SEE YOU IN LONDON (XOEL LÓPEZ)

I wake up today
And again I have slept bad tonight
Why life is so cruel
Why the streets now seem so sad

But if you were here now baby
If you could feel my devotion
You could see how much I hate to say goodbye

It´s easy when you come
To feel nice, to feel stronger to fight
Is easy to relax myself And even be fun

But I avoid the time now
And I´m waiting for tomorrow
We both know very soon I´ll be by your side

I´ll see you in London
I´ll see you in London
I´ll see you in London
I´ll see you in London town

We´ll go to the clubs
Where I thought of you eighty two times
One time for each song, for each word
That I have said that night

Why can´t you be here now baby?
Why I have to feel so lonely?
Why the things with you are so different that now?


I´ll see you in London
I´ll see you in London
I´ll see you in London
I´ll see you in London town

 

 

AUTUMN AFTERNOON (XOEL LÓPEZ)

You can back in time
With a simple melody
Listen to the bands
That have made you were here

And back to that autumn afternoon
Going to buy some music to stay in my room

Dreaming what you have
Being diferent at school
Lonely by the sea
Maybe you have grown too soon

And dream that winter changes to spring
As I back in time with this simphon

Xoel López: Voz, guit acústica, cuerdas y órgano hammond.

Javier Vaamonde: Bajo.

NOT WHAT WE HAD THOUGHT (XOEL LÓPEZ)

Many years, you know, have passed now
And many hills that we have climb
Lovely moons were shinning in that time
But they´re still doing the same now
´Cause we were trying to change
Things we have seen in the world

Maybe I´m hanging of a diferent branch
But it´s the same tree that before
And the people are not what we had thought
They´re simple and they´re alone
And we are trying to change
Things we have said in our songs

And here
We don´t feel the pain
And here
We stand away

Maybe one day we have to turn a page
But we will start a new one
´Cause we have a lot of things to say
And nobody will stop us

Estribillo

Now we still trying to stop
Things you and me don´t forget
´Cause people are not what we thought

Estribillo

THINGS THAT CHANGE (XOEL LÓPEZ)

Nobody remeber the times when they cried
I took them together, we started a jam
Stepping on the right foot

Some changed their clothes
That I used to play when I was at school
But I´m here in my youth
Steppnig on the right foot

One hundred friends that do what they do
Hey man, join us! You are popular too
Things that change everything

Nobody remember when we were alone
And we were together, now I´m the only one
Stepping on the right foot

Xoel López: Voz, bajo, guit. acústica, guit. eléctrica y piano.
Félix Arias: Guitarra acústica.
María Naranjo: Sintetizador.
Jose Martínez: Batería.

 

 

A TOWN THAT I LOVE NOW (XOEL LÓPEZ)

See my clock and I see it´s seven o´clock
Let´s to the station to take the bus

Travelling to another town
A town that I love now
And I leave my home
To put my head on your shoulder
Just when I see you smile
I can see that the sun shines
No more lonely times
´Cause I´m back in your arms now

I don´t know what is near or is far
So distance is a thing I don´t mind

Travelling to another town
A town that I love now
And I leave my home
To put my head on your shoulder
Just when I see you smile
I can see that the sun shines
No more lonely times
´Cause I´m back in your arms now
I´m back in your arms now
In a town that I love now
A town that I love now


Xoel López: Voz, bajo, guit acústica, guit eléctrica y harmónica.
María Naranjo: Piano eléctrico y coros.
Jose Martínez: Batería.

 

 

I´M LIKE THE WATER (XOEL LÓPEZ)

Take what you´ve found
You think that I´m so proud but I´m like the water

It´s your dream so don´t give up
You must get away
You could see I will love you more
This is not the end

Running streets to find a home
Then you´ll find a job
Take your time ´cause you and me
Have to wait two months

Take what you´ve found
You think that I´m so proud but I´m like the water
Don´t think I´m cool
I do so many things ´cause I´m a lover

So don´t wait the weather changes
To have a walk
You´ll feel nice ´cause afterall
There´s love enough

Running streets to find a home
Then you´ll find a job
Take your time ´cause you and me
Have to wait two months

Estribillo

Xoel López: Voz, guit. acústica y piano.
