lyrics

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
Hlynur ... more
