Be Yourself 06:21
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * BE YOURSELF Lonely I was destined as a child, To have a different take that took a while, The colours that I saw I could not tell, But I'm telling like it is, for you now, Stranded in another space + time, But its time thats been too long for me to find, Waking up and breaking out into this future now, So I smile, but guilty eyes say I'm wrong . . . And its a living hell, when you can't decide who you are . . . . You gotta be yourself, you got a ticket right around the world, And if you're gonna come, you'd better say you'll come, and if you stay for long, You're gonna like it more than all them fools, That just pretend, you know they just pretend, you gotta be yourself Shadows from back then are still here today, They try to bring me back to earth and make me pay, But I don't have to be another one, thats wasting this future now, Getting sick, of the same old tricks that they do . . . Pull the thread, and you find instead, something true . . . You gotta be yourself . . . you gotta be yourself . . . You gotta be yourself, you got a ticket right around the world, And if you're gonna come, you'd better say you'll come, and if you stay for long, You're gonna like it more than all them fools, That just pretend, you know they just pretend, you gotta be yourself * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

Seconds move like a thousand miles, The flowers smell like a million smiles, Well you might say I'm a juvenile, But I'm not gonna waste any more of my life in denial Oh Mumma . . . * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

Paper Boats 05:39
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * PAPER BOATS What is it that you want from me, What is it that you want from me, Are you waiting for the tide to change? Every day I pick up my shield and fight, Keep battling the demons through the night, Do you believe this is where I want to be? Its like sailing in a paper boat, hoping not to drown, And darlin don't you know . . . I'm going down . . . What would you understand, when I been crying out for your love, And its the sign of a suffering man when he's crying out for your touch, Darling, theres only so much, So much that this man can stand Never thought I'd ever be a lonely man again, Since the day you took my hand in your hand, Never thought I’d feel the salty tears bitter down my face But thru the time it takes us to realise, Theres something deep that’s deeply wrong inside, Don't leave me hanging on what you think you see Its like I'm sailing in a paper boat, hoping not to drown, And darling don't you know I'm going down, But what would you understand, When I been crying out for your love, And its the sign of a suffering man, oh yes it is, When he's crying out for your touch - oh darlin' , Theres only so much, So much that this man can stand Darling, theres only so much that this man can stand * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * DREAMS OF YOU I met a girl just the other day, Or so it seemed to me today, She had a smile like the Summer rain, I wanna see her face again I wanna see her smile again I met a girl not the other day, Although it felt like yesterday, She had a smile like the setting sun, Theres a place in it for everyone, Theres a place in it for anyone And she's always on my mind . . . I love her with strings of my heart, With the tenderness of my fingers, And on the days that we spend apart, I feel a sense of her spirit linger, She has eyes like the crescent moon, Dancing on a river, And now I know that she's got my heart, What else can I give her? What a precious treasure Dream of you, dream of you, dream of you, Dreams come true, and all my dreams come true * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

Open Hearts 04:47
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * OPEN HEARTS I've sailed the sea at night, The silver seas are bright, I've seen, nothing, So beautiful The wind can blow tonight, Won't make me lose my sight, To see, I've been, Propelled by love, By love, By love, By so much love I've come here, long ago As a child touched silver on my toes, And now I've heard again, My name . . . I've sailed the seas at night, With darkness bathed in light, Nothing, So rare, As open hearts, as o-pen hearts, As open hearts * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

Ca$hed up comfort in a world o' dust, still keep lightin' up Ca$hed up comfort in a world o' dust, keep on lightin' up Mashed up with the only God we trust, keep right on lightin' up, All this ca$h is going to my head, Might get better if we just gave it all away . . . Dirty, pity, Waste it on, the city, Lotsa livin' - you know that, Not much giving, without getting back, Ca$hed up comfort in a world o' dust, still keep lightin' up, Ca$hed up comfort in a world o' dust, keep on lightin' up, Ca$hed up comfort in a world o' dust, still keep lightin' up, Mashed up with the only God we trust, keep right on lightin' up . . . . . All this ca$h is going to my head, Something better that I found but it got away . . . * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

Woh, woh people, Lets make amends, Lets make amends Of all the scars I see, To complicate within, Of all the ones I'd choose, To help me lose this skin Woh, oh people, Lets make amends, Lets make amends I wanna be free, I wanna be free, Oh Lordy, Ooh I, Want to be free, Oh, Lord, Oh Lordy * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

about

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

Cardie's debut album is an eclectic mix of chilled reggae-tinged funk and soul tunes, complimented with lush small orchestral arrangements and jazzy experimental side dishes.

Light blue skies, red Autumn rains, calm silver seas and secret moonlit coves are captured as snapshots of a significant pilgrimage between the shadow and sunlight of his mind.

Written and produced almost entirely solo, this first offering showcases some of the best tunes to come out of his various bedrooms and sheds over the last decade.
