HOLD ON (SirJo Cocchi)
Hold on, oh we got to hold on
Hold on, oh we got to hold on
Why cannot we just leave it all the way it is
In these remaining years
And let it flow just like a river
Without letting water turn into tears
Hold on to the world as it seems to be
Or turn on your projection of reality
We’re feeling hopeless as they made us think
We cannot change a single thing
But now it’s time to make it clear
That our reality gets built within
Hold on to the world as it seems to be
Or turn on your projection of reality
It’s not a matter of right and wrong
Why should we always strive to be so strong
We gotta let them know that we’re so tough
But I want to be both, sweet and rough
Just like a wave that hits and leaves the shore
We wanna leave ‘em hollering for more
Hold on to the world as it seems to be
Or turn on your projection of reality
Hold on to the world as it seems to be
Or turn on your projection of reality

LOVE FEVER (SirJo Cocchi)
Can’t you see lady
He’s not the right one
He puts you down way too much
And it’s not even fun
To see him hustlin’ for some loving
But it ain’t the right kind
He just wants to hold on to you
Cause where else could he find
Someone so smooth and tough
Lady let me tell you I do really understand him
Cause you’re way more then enough
To give a man love fever how could I blame him
He even calls you “fatty” I know he’s joking
But that’s so uncool
He shakes you , grabs you and winds onto you
Like you were his own spool
Mind you I ain’t saying that as a man, all in all
He ain’t no good, but you told me yourself
You’re keeping him at distance, cause you’re not so sure
But here’s one thing I know
You’re someone so smooth and tough
Lady let me tell you I do really understand him
Cause you’re way more then enough
To give a man love fever how could I blame him
For falling in love with you
For trying to hold on to you
You know I ain’t envious
I just hope that someday
I’ll too have my chance
To walk with you alone
And hold you And kiss you
And make sweet and rough love with you
Someone so smooth and tough
Lady let me tell you I do really understand him
Cause you’re way more then enough
To give a man love fever how could I blame him

Got my self the best seat
I couldn’t have asked for more
My face reflects in the window
My life don’t feel like a chore
Waiting for Jerry to start
I just got bounced, another sold out
But sometimes rejections come for a reason,
and Tonight this is no rout
For I’m watching my personal screen
So many lives going by
Each one with their stories , their personal schemes
Each one willing to try
For I’m here staring at the village
And supposedly this ain’t no show
But everyone here looks like an actor
Tryin’ to find their role
I’ve just been here for a week
but it seems so long ago
Now I’m gonna get down to the Red Lion
cause Jerry is about to glow
For I’m watching my personal screen
So many lives going by
Each one with their stories , their personal schemes
Each one willing to try
Spendin’ time, sitting quiet in an old cafè
People come, people go
I see dreams walking by,
Stories unfolding in front of my eyes
Some days have been disheartening
But right here right now I feel alive
For I’m watching my personal screen
So many lives going by
Each one with their stories , their personal schemes
Each one willing to try
For I’m here staring at the village
And supposedly this ain’t no show
But everyone here looks like an actor
Tryin’ to find their role

COME CLOSER 2020 (SirJo Cocchi)
VS
Here it comes again
This feeling’s old but never the same
Everytime is stronger
And I wish I could find the words to say
You’re a queen and now I’m a king
I’ve been waiting for a lifetime
To be able to stand your dazzling light
CH1
And I don’t wanna take you away from here
I don’t wanna give you a world without tears
I just want to come closer
I just want to come closer
And I don’t wanna give you everything you want
Cause I know you already got it all
But maybe you want me closer
Maybe you need to feel me closer
VS2
Touched by the morning beams
Then we took our time off it seems
Maybe it will be so again
I won’t see you for years and then
One night I will dream of you
And I’ll feel that urge within
I’ll give you a sign then
And I hope I won’t be too late
CH2
And I don’t wanna take you away from here
I don’t wanna give you a world without tears
I just want to come closer
I just want to come closer
And I don’t wanna give you everything you want
Cause I know you already got it all
But maybe you want me closer
Maybe you need to feel me closer
CODA
And so here we are
You told me your name means “the brightest star”
So won’t you come closer
And shine your light on me
Please come closer

SirJo Cocchi Milano, Italy
I'm a singer-songwriter, atypical keyboardist and producer, I'm based in Milan, Italy and my sound is a SoulFunkPop trip where I mix modern and vintage. I started singing as a kid and developed a vertical, grooving approach to the keyboard also because I was born with dysmelia in my left hand. The Songbook Chronicles is my current project, a series of 6 interconnected thematic EPs. ... more
