about

A balancing act of the pain and the pleasant 〜
Vanilla Blue - a new single from Gonsofus.
Recorded in Bratislava (Slovakia), Madrid (Spain), and Santiago (Chile)

lyrics

once in phase
we have our ways
a certain elegance and grace
in uncertain days

but after all is said and done
сan we not focus on the rains?
Can we keep following the sun and
making due with what remains?

maybe i have found all
that which i’ve searched for
or maybe not

when i’m there in your arms oh
all the fussin in my mind it stops

you make me feel the way you do
I feel it too
a certain elegance and truth
vanilla blue

but after all is said and done
and no more seconds on the lane
but all the moments it contained
a certain part of us remains
and all the memories were made

maybe i have found all
that which i’ve searched for
or maybe not

when i’m there in your arms oh
all of the fussin in my mind it stops

thoughts break over measures of pleasure
like waves crash over beaches with pressure
in a dance we express what we’re given
as if to show we embrace what we’re living

the seeds grow in the rain and the sunshine
what makes a moment seem long as a lifetime?
do we control what is saved and deleted?
and are we sure that control’s what is needed?

the world knows if it’s painting forever
for two souls in one color - whichever
we’ll never know if we don’t wanna listen
we’re stuck in our minds when the ego has risen

we break bread with the new and the old times
we shine through all new new and our old lives
and still float in the world of the present
a balancing act of the pain and the pleasant
