I eat and drink
Only because I see you
In my plate and my cup
I think
Without you
I will stop
Counting days
Make Yesterday
My edge day
How can I secure
Tomorrow
When I am sure
A flood is coming
You know Darling?
Nothing can save me
From this hardship
And waive my sorrow
Except your ship

Sami Cherkaoui

Go Ahead

Go Ahead
Hold me tight
Don't mind
The heat of my heart beat
Its Alright
Give me that kiss
With you I am a child
Swing me from arm to arm
And from time to time
Put your lips on my lips
I am a fatigue raven
Tired of traveling alone
Looking for safe haven
Before I am dead
Let me be a new born
Let me feel God's Grace
In your embrace
This is all what I need
I don't have to be fed
On milk and corn
Or a nourished seed
Instead
Let your love
Be my daily bread
And your nectar
My only drink
So in a blink
I can grow strong
I am sick of being far
I only belong
With you
Its not enough to say
I love you
Because you're all the way
In my heart and head

Sami Cherkaoui

I Am Just A Child

Darling
Don't blame my innocence
I am just a child
With nothing to hide
Refuse to get older
Spoil my existence
And be a holder
Of hate and ignorance

I just want to stay
A little child and play
In our garden
With the little girl Next door
And without any burden
Give her a Jasmin and a kiss
Then don't miss
To say
How much I love her
Today
Be sure
My darling
I am still pure
With a bliss
To love you more

Hug me, let me rest
In your chest
Don't let go
don't dispair
Don't even let the air
Pass through
Hold me. Kiss me
Like a child
With me pray
Together we stay
I am the child
That lives next door
And you are the little girl
That I always adore
And every day
I love you more
And more and more

Sami Cherkaoui

From Your Heart I flow

Darling
Do you know
No matter how much Fates
Grab me from the unknown
And to the unknown
I am pulled and thrown
Nothing can do me harms
Because I am safe in your arms
For your love I am born
And on your love I grow
On your shores I safely land
Under your sun I glow
If I drown I have your hand
To pull my boat and row
With your love I stand again
To restart
And like a fountain
From your sweet heart
I flow

Sami Cherkaoui

Every Morning

Every Morning
I wake up
Look at my coffee cup
Smell your scent
And feel all what it meant

For a wonder
After few sips
I remember
My darling
The sweetness of your lips

Every morning
I am more certain
That the Sun can't rise
Or be a day figure
Until I open your curtain
And by surprise
It takes a tiny glitter
From your light
So it can shine and ignite

Sami Cherkaoui

Take me to your parlor

Darling
Would you teach me
How to sleep and rest
Like an infant
On your chest
And from time to time
You whisper a chant
Give me a kiss
Put your lips
On my lips
And hide me in your breast

Would you teach me
How to start
Murmur your name
And with all innocence
Slide in your heart
Feel God presence
And your lovely flame

I am the fatigue sailor
At large with my ship
Take me to your parlor
Give me all what you can give
I just want to live
Without hardship
And who except you
Can fulfill for me
This endeavor?

Sami Cherkaoui

With you I born again

Talk to me on the phone
Stream in my ear
Like blood in vein
Whisper I love you
Chant ... let me hear
Your love song
And that seductive tone
Don't stop or refrain
With you
I am a child
Just born
Laugh and anxiously track
Every sound you crack
And when you say so long
I wish I died
And when you are back
Like grass reborn by rain
I born again
