Funky Man

Funky man
Got the rhythm
In his hand
Dancing feet
Kicking to his beat
Sweat and tears
Crystals in his eyes
Rhythm dreams
Of hope so sweet

Just a kiss
Then I fly
Just a moment
Then goodbye

Do you really want it now
Do you really want to fly
Come along he’ll show you how
He’ll shoot you to the sky

There is another man
Just beyond me
Wanders around
With a gun in his hand
Bares no peace
Always pain
That he sees
He alone
With another plan

Just a kiss
Then I fly
Just a moment
Then goodbye

Do you really want it now
Do you really want to fly
Come along he’ll show you how
He’ll shoot you to the sky

Through the long
Dusty night
Funky man
Takes me to heights
Look at me
Rhythm tells you
What I see

Far beyond
The mountain range
Over edge of the sea
There’s a place
Where spirits dwell
Where no one
Ever sleeps
Spirits ride
The rhythmic sea
Rough waves smoothly
Caress the shore

Wondering spirits
Wanting more
Funky man
Kick up the score
Spirits shoot up
Your rhythm far
On their wings
Crystal stars

Funky man
Come give me
Give me hope
Another night
Everyone searching for
True meaning of their time
But while the sands
Draining down our hands
Could we be ever
Just once

Just a kiss
Then I fly
Just a moment
Then goodbye

Do you really want it now
Do you really want to fly
Come along he’ll show you how
he shoot you to the sky

– Ephraim Hylton

Ibiza

Saw you dreaming
Last night
I Saw you dreaming
by the sea shore
You drifted with me
To escape
To evolve more
Til we die
And the heat
Of the sun
Was burning our skin
Yea
And I was enjoying
Just going in
Can you see the summer
of the night
Causing cue of delight
Falling all the victims of the world
Sweet devout
Soft air
Speaking softly
Does it make a difference
That I love you
Does it make a difference
That you care
I don’t know what it is
But it feels so rare
Can you Love
Can you love me once more
Before I fall
Can you love me once more
Before I go
I want to softly kiss you
And wash the sands from your feet
And watch you
As the mountain waves
collide cascade
She smiles
And to hold you
If she stumbles
Hold you
If she cries
dry salt from your skin
Soft white towels
And gently I lay you down
And keep you cool
As warm shade
From the summer sky
Slowly drift by
Sleep and dream
glass of chilled red white wine
Sleep and dream…

– Ephraim Hylton


Before You Go

Before you go
Before we say goodbye
I would like you to know
What you meant to me
Like sun in the clouds
How you built me
From a boy to a man
How the juices
became ripe and sweet
In the pleasure of our bodies
Before you go
Before we say goodbye
Think of the younger days
Holding hands
In the green park
Kissing lightly
By the silver train
In the smiling smile
Endlessly summer
Unlike this world
Could never be
Now its not
I.E.D.’s
As we shut the door
And start the engine
A blast a flare
Night in the clouds
Scattered parts
Left undone
By the two who falls
There is none

– Ephraim Hylton
