Stargazer (All I Need is You) by Jose Bernardo and Eric Ecklund

I see you
And I know you see me
I’m thinking
How to describe what you do

I don’t know if
You’d be into me
It’s crazy
But even fools can dream

(Pre-Chorus)
And I question
Is it my imagination?
Playing tricks on me again

(Chorus)
I think of you, and I,
Smile when you walk through my daydreams
There’s only one thing I need
And here’s a clue
When you’re not there, that’s when,
I know it’s true
I’ve always known there’s someone
Out there for me
Stargazer all I need is you

Not playing
I’m not just fooling around
But it’s not easy
To carry the weight of the world

Around you
I feel turned on and alive
Why do I
Not feel right by your side

(Pre-Chorus)
And I question
Is it my imagination?
Playing tricks on me again

(Chorus)
I think of you, and I,
Smile when you walk through my daydreams
There’s only one thing I need
And here’s a clue
When you’re not there, that’s when,
I know it’s true
I’ve always known there’s someone
Out there for me
Stargazer all I need is you

(Bridge)
Is my sanity still intact
My head’s still spinning
And I feel like a wreck
But now I’m so confused
Cause I can not read your signs
Tell me now
If you’d be mine

(Chorus)
I think of you, and I,
Smile when you walk through my daydreams
There’s only one thing I need
And here’s a clue
When you’re not there, that’s when,
I know it’s true
I’ve always known there’s someone
Out there for me
Stargazer all I need is you

Alicia by Jose Bernardo

(Verse 1 – spoken)
As I look at the torn photograph in my hand
The memories start rushing back
…and it was over before it began…
…ya know, those sudden feelings were gone in a flash…

(Pre-Chorus 1)
Your scent lingers in the air
It’s your voice on the machine
Not fair, it wasn’t up to me

(Chorus)
Come run to me x3
Alicia

Come run to me x2
You’re all I need
Alicia

(Verse 2 – spoken)
It was always maybe, not a yes or no
Part time loving I should say
I was parked the wrong way on that one way road
But gosh, you never saw me that way

(Pre-Chorus 2)
Why is hindsight always clearer?
Why do feelings change?
Hang on, why can’t you stay?

(Chorus)

[Guitar Solo]

(Chorus)


This song is track 3 from Jose’s debut album “Outside Looking In”

Sunday Morning Sky by Jose Bernardo and Eric Ecklund

Barely whisper
I can feel the words you want to say
Anyway

Kiss me softly
I want to feel your lips again
Today

(Pre-Chorus 1)
Take me to another world
Let’s forget about tomorrow
Fall with me into a daze
Let’s forget about uncertainties
That still linger in the air
On the floor

(Chorus)
I’m hanging onto your every word
Just incase, I can’t hang on to you
Let me float to you slowly
Sometime, on a Sunday morning sky

If this morning
Should be the story’s end
What then?

On many mornings
I will think of you again
My friend

(Pre-Chorus 2)
On our quest to find the one
There are many disappointments
Don’t you know in the book of love
Promises are often broken
I’m on my knees, My heart’s wide open
Break this silence, Evermore

(Chorus)
I’m hanging onto your every word
Just incase, I can’t hang on to you
Let me float to you slowly
Sometime, on a Sunday morning sky

[guitar solo]

(Chorus)
I’m hanging onto your every word
Just incase, I can’t hang on to you
Let me float to you slowly
Sometime, on a Sunday morning sky

I’m hanging onto your every word
Just incase, I can’t hang on to you
Let me float to you slowly
Sometime, on a Sunday morning
Sunday morning
Sunday morning sky

Love You Endlessly by Jose Bernardo

Tell me, all your secrets
And I’ll keep them safe for you

Tell me, all your worries
And I’ll keep them in my heart

(Pre-Chorus)
You know that I’ll be there
Fall and you know
You can only land 
Into my arms

(Chorus)
But wait, for me,
I’m falling slowly can’t you see?
Your love is deeper,
Than I thought that it would be.
I’m waiting for you
To unlock my heart for me
Just give me a minute,
And I’ll love you endlessly

Tell me, all your dreams and
I will try to make them all come true

Just trust me, like I trust you
Iím sure we will make it through

(Pre-Chorus)
You know that I’ll be there
Fall and you know
You can only land 
Into my arms

(Chorus)
But wait, for me,
I’m falling slowly can’t you see?
Your love is deeper,
Than I thought that it would be.
I’m waiting for you
To unlock my heart for me
Just give me a minute,
And I’ll love you endlessly

(Bridge)
Let the past be what it was
There’s no use to think of yesterday and its faults
We’ll take it step by step, A day at a time
Can’t you see, What we have here is divine
I don’t how long I can wait for you to be mine

(Chorus)
But wait, for me,
I’m falling slowly can’t you see?
Your love is deeper,
Than I thought that it would be.
I’m waiting for you
To unlock my heart for me
Just give me a minute,
And I’ll love you endlessly

Just give me a minute,
And I’ll love you endlessly

Just give me a minute,
I will love you endlessly


This song is track 5 from Jose’s debut album “Outside Looking In”

Unconditional by Jose Bernardo

Let’s skip the awkward part
Where I ask you what we are
What use are labels, when it’s understood
It is all unconditional

You never asked me where I’d rather be
I never said I wasn’t yours to keep
I never strayed, you found peace with me
It is all unconditional

I can’t explain it if they can’t see
What keeps you here with me
All I can say is it’s not contrived 
It’s not for them to understand – just for you and I 

(Guitar solo)

I can’t explain it if they can’t see
What it is in you that I need
All I can say is with my heart and soul 
I don’t take you for granted – I’m unconditionally yours 

If I were to lose everything
I wouldn’t ask the for Lord anything
Because you’d still stand by me
It is all unconditional


This song is track 6 from Jose’s debut album “Outside Looking In”

All Alone Now by Jose Bernardo

Hear you cryin’
Alone outside
Reaching out to you
To heal the pain inside
Time heals all wounds
Peel the scab away if it soothes

(Pre-Chorus 1)
Something happened
Changed the look on your face
Someone touched you
but you turned your self away

(Chorus 1)
All alone now x3
Healing a precious ache

All alone now x3
Pride got in the way

Hear you cryin’
I feel your pain inside
You can’t get back yesterday
No matter if you tried
Gotta look forward to a new day’s dawn
But you’re stuck in yesterday’s dusk, lost forevermore

(Pre-Chorus 2)
Grinning slightly, turning frown to smile
Cunning actress, you pretended all the while

(Chorus 2)
All alone now x3
Praying a silent plight

All alone now x3
Taking flight

(Guitar Solo)

(Chorus 3)
All alone now x3
The silence in your mind

All alone now x3
Say good night


This song is track 8 from Jose’s debut album “Outside Looking In”

What Dreams May Come by Jose Bernardo

Wake me…

Remnants of the past
The dried petals on the broken glass
A siren screaming her name is too late, alas

Hopes for a future gone
Dinner reservations for no one
Prints on the tickets fade away

(Chorus)
What’s her name an angel asks me
What’s her name echoes through the halls
What’s the deal of a lost soul wandering
What’s the reason for loving at all

The pale grass from this summer past
Surrounds her subterranean bed
Crystal is the shape of the dew on her stone

Echoes of thunder storms
Chilled exhales of silent mourns
Shallow is the sand in the glass of time

(Chorus)

Why do we answer its tempting calls

(Guitar Solo)

(Chorus)

(Chorus)

Why do we answer its tempting calls


This song is track 9 from Jose’s debut album “Outside Looking In”

Yllättävä Lempeys (Surprising Tenderness) by Jose Bernardo

Hän oli Karjalan poika. Hän oli sanojensa mies.
Ei aina helpoimpia, mutta rehti ainí. 
Viimeisinä päivinään ymmärsin häntä enemmän.
Kovan kuorensa alta löytyi yllättävä lempeys.

Mitä aika on?
Onko hän jo mennyt?
Mitä kertoisin hänestä,
jota muut eivät jo tiedä?

Kertoisinko evakkomatkoistaan
tai Laatokan kirkkaasta vedestä,
isänmaallisuudestaan,
vai sen miten hänet muistan?

Hän oli Karjalan poika. Hän oli sanojensa mies.
Ei aina helpoimpia, mutta rehti ainí. 
Viimeisinä päivinään ymmärsin häntä enemmän.
Kovan kuorensa alta löytyi yllättävä lempeys.

Joskus jääräpää,
joskus arka lapsi,
joskus tuikka ote,
mutta myös moni hellä hetki.

Aina rakastava isä,
hyväsydäminen mies,
pahaa ei tarkoitus koskaan,
vaikkí ei aina ymmärtänyt niin.

Hän oli Karjalan poika. Hän oli sanojensa mies.
Ei aina helpoimpia, mutta rehti ainí. 
Viimeisinä päivinään ymmärsin häntä enemmän.
Kovan kuorensa alta löytyi yllättävä lempeys.


This song is track 10 from Jose’s debut album “Outside Looking In”

You’re No Ordinary Woman by Jose Bernardo

You’re no ordinary woman
I need your love baby all the time
You’re no ordinary woman
Cause baby, you’re mine

When you’re near me I can feel
I can feel that everything will be just fine
You’re no ordinary woman
Cause baby, you’re mine

You’re no ordinary woman
But I’m just an ordinary guy
To have you as my woman
Makes me the luckiest man alive

I said, You’re no ordinary woman
I’ll need your love ’till the day I die
I said, You’re no ordinary woman
Cause baby, you’re mine


This song is track 12 from Jose’s debut album “Outside Looking In”

One Foot in Hell by Jose Bernardo

(Verse 1)
I’ve heard every story you have to tell
I’m starting to wonder what the real deal is
The first time we spoke, I believed everything
Who are you trying to fool here
Is it me or you my dear

(Chorus)
Why do you insist on keeping one foot in hell
When the stars are in your favor and you could have me
When you’re getting burned, how long do you think you’ll live to tell
When you insist on keeping one foot in hell

(Verse 2)
I’ve heard every rumor you started ’bout me
I’m starting to wonder if you’re a friend that I should keep
At first I was angry but now I just don’t care
Who are you trying to fool here
Is it me or you my dear

(Chorus)

(Guitar Solo)

(Verse 3)
That’s what you get for keeping one foot in hell
Pick me or the devil
It’s too late to call for help
First you cursed me, but now you claim love
You can’t keep on fooling everyone

(Chorus)
