Picasso
She’s walking through the wilderness
And thinking ‘bout the happiness and roses
Her absent mind is souring wild
She’s a woman but sometimes she’s like a child with choices
And her postman sends her letters, to the sun
It always burns but it’s getting better
You know Picasso, wasn't always known
maybe afraid like you, to be alone.
And she paints her picture fragment
As she makes another statement
This is the life that you own
And you are the queen of its throne
With a glass of red vine in her hand
And a Cuban cigar on a stand, she’s ruling
She sits so good in her lazy chair
And thinks about to cut her hair, just cooling.
And she writes another letter to the sun
You know it burns but it’s getting better
You know Picasso, wasn't always strong
Maybe afraid like you, to sing a song.
And she makes another wise-crack
As she gets back on her good track
This is the life that you own
And you are the queen of its throne

Black and white world
I dreamt about a black and white world
Nothing was in colour
nothing like no other
Everything so pale
I dreamt about a black and white world
Everything was wasted
Nothing really tasted
Nothing quenched my thirst
I dreamt that I found an answer
Your mind can be like a cancer
Just laugh and your colours will be there
Your colours will be there
I dreamt I was in a black and white world
Nothing really smelling
The flowers wasn’t selling
Nothing had a scent
I dreamt that I found an answer
Your mind can be like a cancer
Just laugh and your colours will be there
Your colours will be there

Boy.
He's just a little boy
coming to his senses
In this uncertain world
clinging to his fences
Bright as sky above
when you see him laughing
Discovering the love
in the faces that surround him
When he's taking his first steps-
when he's saying his first words
Daddy see me now
I’m gonna be a strong - man I want to be like you
And do what you do.
Follow your dreams
Life is so much more than flouting with the stream
Harvest your thoughts,
And you will see for a while that sun always shines on you
Shine on you
Over you.
As long as you will walk
This road we call the life
Just keep your head above
And don’t fall without a fight
I send you best of luck,
Hope your wishes comes true
And all of the angels
Come to watch over you
When you making first mistakes
When you are sorry for the first time
You have to know by now,
Life is like a game playing out its card
For you Bernard
Follow your dreams
Life is so much more than flouting with the stream
Harvest your thoughts,
And you will see for a while that sun always shines on you
Shine on you
Over you.

Hlyn and project whistling gypsy.
Whistling gypsy is a project that was created in my sister
Esther's living room in Hafnarfjordur, Iceland.
Our brother Hlöðver, who plays ukulele and mandolin, was activated and then we booked a studio.
3 years later the CD Letters and tattletales, was born.
Hope you enjoy it as much as we do.
Peace
