about

I started writing this song while travelling in India. I met a psychoanalyst who told me: “Alice, Life is a walk”. This sentence stuck in my head, and I started writing about that walk. So many questions. Trying to fathom, what is this life actually? It’s also a kind of mantra that I use sometimes, when I feel that the world is too crazy. I come back to the breath. Remind myself that I am alive. And that I am grateful.

lyrics

Life is a walk on the knife’s edge - life is a walk who knows what’s next
Life is a walk on a summer’s day - life is a walk sometimes it’s a break
Life is a walk with a sense of release - life is a walk into the deep mysteries
Life is a walk on the ocean side - life is a walk in the blackest night

Breathe deep - heartbeat - in out - calm charm - slow ease - smile release
Present moment we are alive - present moment we are alright

Life is a walk like a crazy drug - life is a walk just staying with the rush
Life is a walk all simple and calm - life is a walk sometimes we carry arms
Life is a walk with nowhere to go - life is a walk for the young and the old
Life is a walk sometime we take the bike - sometimes we rest our tired smiles

Breathe deep - heartbeat - in out - calm charm - slow ease - smile release
Present moment we are alive - present moment we are alright

Life is a walk at times it’s a storm - life is a walk with a scent of cinnamon
Life is a walk with the loss of innocence - life is a walk with remembrance
Life is a walk sometimes it’s right when it’s wrong - life is a walk seems there’s too much going on
Life is a walk with friends right and left - life is a walk with no family left

Breathe deep - heartbeat - in out - calm charm - slow ease - smile release
Present moment we are alive - present moment we are alright
Breathe Deep - heartbeat - in out - calm charm - slow ease - smile release
Present moment we are alive - present moment we are alright
