PROMISES (Lyrics,/music by: Félix R. Duque & José R. Duque) Promises Vanishing in your eyes Words try To stop by I lost my way For a little while My mind is fading away Into your skin My heart is waiting for your dark To cover me Walking and running Deep in the sand of your time Walking and running Deep in the sand of your time Walking and running Promises Vanishing in your eyes All my sins Stopping for amnesty I can see your spring time Throw a thousand storms My mind is fading away Into your skin My heart is waiting for your dark To cover me Walking and running Deep in the sand of your time Walking and running Deep in the sand of your time Walking and running Promises Promises Promises Promises Promises

LANDSCAPE IN A TRUCK (lyrics, and music by Félix R. Duque & Jose R. Duque) Too many pictures in my mind Too many roads and many leaves   Show me the path to walk   The storm comes devouring the fallen flowers The moon is falling down And bring your tide to my shore   Once I leave, I could be your friend, Like the moon, to the sea Summer rain and Fireflies Drawing shapes on the clouds Dressing my head and my tears Long road to a view Are just Landscape in a truck And bring my home to my eyes

The secret lives of trees (lyrics and music byFélix R. Duque & José R. Duque) Hear the wind…..carry on stories of the past Strain your gaze …May this sorrow wouldn’t last Feel your hands into the soil, never has your soul   Rooted in fears, waiting for years. Branched in despair, yearning to be free. You’d never find growth, Come learn with me, About the secret lives of trees   Let your birds rest in me. I carry your nest in my arms Bring me message from you Of your sunny days, and your summer breeze When you hear me knock On your bedroom window…. Howling tales of whisper… You’ll know I have returned. All pure and determined. You’d never find growth, Come learn with me, About the secret lives of trees

Standing in the rain (lyrics and music by Félix R. Duque & José R.

DRESSING LIKE A GOD (lyrics and Music by Félix R. Duque & José R Duque) Thinking I could hold I stood strong Underneath my feet All worlds has gone The promises of love, Stories that you’ve told They come back to you Like a convoy full of gold And you showed to me Dressing like a god Night came from the east Bringing songs & and things Wrapped in cellophane Whispering our names   You opened your wings to me But you let me fall Back to the ground But I rise with your love The power of love You opened your wings to me But you let me fall Back to the ground

28 DAYS (lyrics and music by Félix R. Duque & José R Duque) Let it out, Put it down. Shout it out Didn’t you know? That the trees are dead Their souls sleep The dreamer’s dream Bring your thoughts to a halt. Let the world stop, one more time When the day is done When the night is cold Tell me all… that you may know -All our moments are here Intentions are clear… All we want is to have you near. 28 days. For 28 days. It’s not a lie, your words will fly. This light inside….both yours and mine. Will keep us close, For 28 days -I won’t sleep I won’t eat I won’t sink I will dream  I will sing  I will lift This soul of mine Close to your little heaven Got no place to call your home Time goes by day by day   All our moments are here The intent is clear… All we want is to have you near. For 28 days. It’s not a lie, your words will fly. This light inside….both yours and mine. Will keep us close, For 28 days

WE’RE ALL NEW (lyrics and music by Félix R. Duque & José R Duque)  Bring some rose to my garden, Bring some laughter to my heart. Hope we understand, all those lay out plans. No need to erase, all words spoken, Pain, pain is past…. and forgotten.   Laid down with me Under the birch Childhood dreams, reaching out And your fingertips, so stretched So forgiving and blessed. With your saddest face You told me….. They’re gone.   Let’s wait for the yellows Yearn for the reds… There is no need to be blue After all, we’re all new
