Arena 04:15
Into my arena Saw your face in a downtown elevator
 Knew right then - that you ́re the new love for me yeah, u-u-uh You turned around looked at me, and I just had to have you No need to tell you Someday soon you and me - together Someday soon together, you and me
 And both know this time it is real and forever Someday soon together, you will see my arena is the place to be Making love in a downtown elevator
 Is it only in my fantasy? Yeah. Uh-uh-uh yeah Turned around, crossed the street, and I nearly lost you I just had to tell you Someday soon you and me - together Someday soon together, you and me
 And both know this time it is real and forever Someday soon together, you will see my arena is the place to be Someday soon together, you and me
 And both know this time it is real and forever Someday soon together, you will see, that my arena is the place to be yeah Someday soon together, you and me This time it is real and forever Someday soon together, you will see, that my arena is the place to be Someday soon together, you and me
 And both know this time it is real and forever Someday soon together, you will see, that my arena is the place to be My arena is the place to be That my arena is the place to be My arena is the place to be

Sagittarius 02:34
You tell me I ́m the only one But then I say how do you know You say you are in love with me You are the sagittarius, I tell myself I should have known I have walked that road before 
From the moment I could talk to you I knew there ́s no hope And when it was over I could barely walk 
Keep on swimming in my pond 
Knowing there ́s no only one
 The sagittarius will be the closest one From the moment I could talk to you I knew there ́s no hope And when it was over I could barely walk 
Keep on swimming in my pond 
Knowing there ́s no only one
 The sagittarius will be the closest one From the moment I could talk to you I knew there ́s no hope And when it was over I could barely walk 
Keep on swimming in my pond 
Knowing there ́s no only one
 The sagittarius will be the closest one

One of the biggest, if not THE biggest, surprises of 2019 so far." [10/10]

"[...] the music I hear on this 6-track debut EP is really worthwhile checking out, certainly for all AOR aficionados who don't want to miss what's going on out there ..."

Hardware '86 Norway
