You don’t know that I
built a home, a cabin in the heights
You don’t know that I
grew a tree and sowed the seeds of life
You don’t know that I
learnt a lot about my healin’ side
You don’t know that I
need a little time to own it right
You don’t know that I wanna keep it cool and rise... slow... slow...
I wanna keep it cool but I’m gonna reach your mind
You don’t know that I
need a little time to free the tide
You don’t know that I
May choose to run away every time you try
You don’t know that I
have to hide it all so deep inside
You don’t know that I
Need to step aside
Don’t you wanna try and take it cool and rise... slow... slow...
Please baby take it cool, and try... you might reach my mind

Waiting on you
Oh I’m waiting ‘cause the light is dimming
And I pray for the rain, and I’m singing
When the sky is crushing the heights
Heavy as the Hope that is smashing my heart
I’m drowning in the clouds
Eerie and cold
Like a steam ceiling, growing
And I pray for the strike of lightning
The Sun of gold is fading
The Storm, in its irony, is teasing me
When the sky is crushing the heights
Heavy as the Hope that is smashing my heart
I’m drowning in the clouds
Rain is pouring down
Release my mind
Let go of my heart
Waiting all alone
For the magic to hit once more

If I told you that I won’t wait
Man, would you let me see?
I lost my patience, and want to feel, not hope !
Oh No more dream !
Could drive my car, knock on your door
Could kiss your lips, could do much more
But would you let me in?
Come on, just let me in !
If I told you that I could live
In the cabin of your dreams
Would you show me the way?
Would you take me away?
Could walk a thousand miles for you
Could be learning something new
But would you let me in?
Come on, just let me in !
If I told you that I know
What you need, and where to go
Would you forget your sorrow
Give in to me, don’t say no
Could lay under the Peaks
Could shut up, I won’t speak
But would you let me in?
Come on, just let me in…

He needs me

He needs me
He doesn't know it, but he needs me
And so no matter where he goes
Though he doesn't care
He knows that I'm here
He needs me
I ought to leave him, but he needs me
I know that I ain't very bright
Just to tag along
Oh, but right or wrong
I'm his and I'm here
And I'm gonna be his friends or his lover
Cause my one ambition is
To wake him and make him discover
That he needs me
I’ve got to follow where he leads me
Or else he’ll never know that I need him
Just as he needs me

Oh Moon

Everytime you look at me, I freeze
Everytime you catch me, I feel
When I’m at home and scared to be alone
You light up the room and I play by your rules
Don’t need much more to be full… fooled
Anytime, anywhere, you’re here
Even hidden in the shade, I feel
I feel you inside, you’re ruling my mind
I can’t even try to avoid your light
You’re helping me rise so high
And when you come into sight
How red ! How gold ! Oh ! you shine
Oh I could cry
With joy, with tears in my eyes
Everytime you look at me, I freeze
Everytime you look at me I feel…

Ballerine Strasbourg, France
De la douceur et du temps...
En 2020, seule dans son cocon, Ballerine compose “Slow”,
l’histoire d’une quête personnelle, d’une rencontre avec elle-même, guidée par ses rêves et ses espoirs en pleine mutation.
Grisée par un retour vital à la nature, elle écrit ses nouvelles chansons d’un seul souffle, sur la guitare de son enfance, puis s’entoure de ses meilleurs alliés pour les enregistrer.
