Cameroonian Sky

 

composition & lyrics by Riikka Keränen

​

Tall ancient trees' 

Canopy dims the light 

Yet you see me 

In the glow of the night 

Under Cameroonian Sky

Feel my love 

Let it grow 

And we will make the rain fall hard across 

The dark and beautiful vault 

Making everything down here turn lush green

Pouring from the blue, high 

Cameroonian Sky

Cameroonian Sky

 

Dry, desert plains

Volcanic veins 

And a river rising deep 

In the green bursting wood 

Rushing west

Through Cameroon

Be still, my heart

Let us grow 

And we will make the rain fall hard across 

The dark and beautiful vault

Making everything down here turn lush green

Pouring from the blue, high 

Cameroonian Sky

Cameroonian Sky

 

We will make the rain fall hard across 

The dark and beautiful vault

Making everything down here turn lush green

Pouring from the blue, high 

Cameroonian Sky

Cameroonian Sky

 

Dark and beautiful vault

Making everything down here turn lush green

Pouring from the blue, high 

Cameroonian Sky

From the beautiful sky

We will make the rain fall

Cameroonian Sky

Cameroonian Sky

Sweet of Love 

 

composition & lyrics by Riikka Keränen

​

Great of Praises

Lady in Grace

Mistress of The Two Lands

Sweet of Love!

 

Marvelous are the visions of Aten

The Beautiful One has come

 

A tray of phrases

Shady dim maze

Distant from the truth stands 

A sweet enigma!

 

Marvelous are the visions of Aten

The Beautiful One has come

 

Great of Praises

Lady in Grace

Mistress of The Two Lands

Sweet of Love!

 

Marvelous are the visions of Aten

The Beautiful One has come

Strange Flowers Bloom at Night 

​

composition & lyrics by Riikka Keränen

​

Strange Flowers Bloom at Night 

In the midnight sun and the shadows of its light

A meadow full of blossoms 

Flickers golden as I gaze through a frame

Standing on a mountain I can see for miles

Closer to the sky a vision of a garden 

Where the bobcat and I one day will stay

 

So many things left unspoken

And the secrets of the nightless night untold

Sun sets the sky on fire

A longing burns me as I stare in the flames

Once you held the key 

To open up my heart 

But you couldn’t see 

Strange flowers bloom at midnight 

In the dusk of land and the corners of mind

 

So many things left unspoken

And the secrets of the nightless night untold

Sun sets the sky on fire

A longing burns me as I stare in the flames

Once you held the key 

To open up my heart 

But you couldn’t see 

Strange flowers bloom at midnight 

In the dusk of land and the corners of mind




 

There Is

 

composition & lyrics by Riikka Keränen

​

There is

There is a constant

There is a constant sadness in your eyes

 

There

There carefully

There, carefully hidden lies a secret

 

There is no love in you

For me nor her

Not for my mother

 

There is a battle in you I know nothing of

So who am I to judge

They made you believe that to feel is to be weak

I'm beginning to understand it's not my fault

 

There is no love in you

For me nor her 

There’s just your cold marble heart

And it tears me apart 

To see you take out the pain on her

And I can’t be there

 

There is a battle in you I know nothing of

So who am I to judge

They made you believe that to feel is to be weak

I'm beginning to understand it's not my fault

 

There is no love

In you for me nor her 

There’s just your cold, cold marble heart

And it tears me apart 

To see you take out the pain on her

And I can’t be there
