Erik Simmer Nice Electro-infused pop here. Short and sweet, with nice melodies, good blending of acoustic guitar with the synth work, and pretty vocals. Favorite track: Starlight Season.

It's time to say goodbye And you're scared I see it in your eyes Adventures are fun You're worrying about nothing Your guitar's in the car Umbrella by your side Thought you were on your way When I heard you say What do you think is wrong with me I've never been brave like you And if I get lonely What will I do As far as I know As far as the stars This earthquake's gonna shake your heart You're scared of what might happen then I told you once but I'll tell you again You don't need to worry 'bout that I know that you're trying To help me find my feet I know you're watching over me Maybe I'll be brave And show you that I can Maybe I should stay The weather's looking grey What do you think is wrong with me I've always got a better excuse But once I have gone What will you do (Oh I've danced with a million doubts) As far as I know As far as the stars This earthquake's gonna shake your heart (Couldn't hear the words you said) Your scared of what might happen then (You told me once just tell me again) I told you once but I'll tell you again (I don't need to worry 'bout that) You don't need to worry 'bout that Look at that shine You and the stars (I know that you're trying) This little girl can't tell you apart (To help me find my feet) Did you think you'd lost your friend (I know you're watching over me) She told you once now she'll tell you again (I don't need to worry 'bout that) You don't need to worry 'bout that Show you that I can Wherever you are I'll never be as far as the stars

Swept Away 03:50
Speak speak to me While we're walking It's life to me to hear you talking Yes I like pop music hey How did you know that Sky sky is blue I never saw it there I must have grown under a rain cloud I love your endless stories Making my heart bounce (Hey) Hey where's the pool I need an ice bath Wanna freeze this moment like a photograph You must have sung me to sleep This is the best dream You tipped the sky into the ocean Mixed up everything I know And coloured me pink Like I'd forgotten to breathe Let me stop you there It's a long way down And I'm only one foot off the ground But I I – I'm swept away Swept away-ay-ay Lift lift me up You're superhuman It's been a heavy day but you improve it Joking that I like your hair How did you know that Take take my hand I've got a spare one A million days on earth but we could share one Telling our tomorrows and Chasing the sun down (Hey) Hey where's the crowd they look like ants now You see my feet and solid ground They struggle to meet Like you're controlling the breeze Let me stop you there It's a long way down And I'm only one foot off the ground But I I – I'm swept away Swept away-ay-ay Dancing in my sleep Don't wake me from this dream state I'm swept away Dancing in my sleep Don't wake me from this dream state I'm swept away-ay-ay (Let me stop) Let me stop you there (oh) It's a long way down And I'm only one foot off the ground But I I – I'm swept away Swept away-ay-ay (ay ay ay yeah)

Wait And See 03:41
When you grew up You thought you'd be Mountains of calm But you're wild as the sea Time calls you slow I think you're strong Fastest I know To admit they're wrong Why do you sing with your eyes closed Like you're afraid of what you'll see Look no further than the front row That's where I'll be Wait and see Wait and see We don't know where Where we'll end up Lay all your plans out And pack them all up (Mm mm) No one knows who they belong to They just pretend to feel complete Go find the fastest road back home It's all that you need Wait and see Wait and see We'll have to see What we will be We'll have to wait Wait and see Wait and see Wait and see You hug your chair like your dearest friend Must take you years to become like that One thumb one finger could snap you out Snap you out of that Why do you sing with your eyes closed Like you're afraid of what you'll see Look no further than the front row That's where I'll be Wait and see Wait and see (Mm mm mm)

(I've been saving all your thoughts for a reason) What's in your imagination I'd really like to know Show me to the nearest station I'd really like to go I could use your bright ideas To show me the way home I might take a souvenir And never let it go Low on lighting Ships need guiding Wake up wake up Lighthouse (light-lighthouse) Ready for a starlight season I've been saving all your thoughts For a reason Shining while the light home's dreaming I've been saving all your thoughts For a reason Calling all the crews and captains Sailing the sky Did you know that wonders happen Happen all the time If you'd like to I could show you All the things that flash Before my eyes Ready for a starlight season I've been saving all your thoughts For a reason Shining while the light home's dreaming I've been saving all your thoughts For a reason Low on lighting Wake up wake up lighthouse Ships need guiding Wake up wake up lighthouse Ready for a starlight season I've been saving all your thoughts For a reason Shining while the light home's dreaming I've been saving all your thoughts For a reason

Hidden Wire 03:30
Here goes Look away now If you can't stand it I'm about to make a Fool of myself But it's just me Try'na be cool Try'na be something I wonder how it is for Everyone else Say you don't Say you don't Really mean it When you say It's just for today All this time You were holding out on me I'd never seen it happen like that be-fo-ore But he walked in And he brought magic through the do-or It's what I was looking for Don't stop believing Just because you've seen it There's no hidden wire Holding him u-u-up Oh oh Oh oh oh Grey sky Who needs colour when you've Seen those eyes Breaking into Memory banks 'Cause you're like brand new And everybody's moved To remember you Tell 'em how it's done The magic won't fade Say you don't Say you don't Really mean it When you say It's just for today All this time You were holding out on me I'd never seen it happen like that be-fo-ore But he walked in And he brought magic through the do-or It's what I was looking for Don't stop believing Just because you've seen it There's no hidden wire Holding him u-u-up Oh oh Oh oh oh You'd tell me Not to be so sure The future's not clear Anything could happen By the end of the year I'll send you the stars When I reach for the moon I'm starting to think That I should have believed you I'd never seen it happen like that be-fo-ore But he walked in And he brought magic through the do-or It's what I was looking for Don't stop believing Just because you've seen it There's no hidden wire Holding him u-u-up Oh oh Oh oh oh Holding him u-u-up

(How can I let you How can I lose I would turn the world into A place for me and you) I could Curl up in a compass Crawl into a crows nest And never be heard I'd stand Hold onto a clock's hand Never be alone and Never be heard Little dreams of Bigger views You could make my Wish true How can I let you How can I lose You used Everything you've been through Took it from within you And started to change Stunned and Silver as the sun and Colder than the gold sand Started to change Looking through an ocean view You watched while my Heart grew How can I let you How can I lose I would turn the world into A place for me and you (Little dreams of Bigger views You could make my Wish true) How can I let you How can I lose I would turn the world into A place for me and you
