NO CLOUDS NO SHOW (S. Cocchi)
Life may have been clouds and heavy rain
It has swallowed the joy
And spat it out as pain
Hands have been trembling
and bells have been ringing
Doubts enveloping every song that I’ve been singing
And now I can clearly remember
When you told me not so long ago
When there’s no clouds at the end of the day
Sundown ain’t no, sunsdown ain’t no show
Many a time I have read and heard
Bliss is what to seek for
Like mealworms to the bird
Cloud nine is alive
It floats and it moves
I try to hold on to it but nothing really improves
And now I can clearly remember
When you told me not so long ago
When there’s no clouds at the end of the day
Sundown ain’t no, sunsdown ain’t no show
Misgiving is certain
I thought I was control
The flea in me was leaping yeah
While the rabbit stayed in the hole
But reality is misty
Like her eyes staring at Orion
In a blink of an eye
The flea turns into a lion
And now I can clearly remember
When you told me not so long ago
When there’s no clouds at the end of the day
Sundown ain’t no show

I THOUGHT I’D MISS YOU (S. Cocchi)
Are you ready?
We’re never ready!
I never felt this way before you know
Maybe it might have happened once or twice
I’ve been surfing all these wave s
In an up and down world
I have swum in fire and I have dug the ice
Scars on our skin, wounds in our mind
We fear there is no way they may be healed
Walking through the peaks we can’t see the top
The fog is so thick like our fate, sealed
A big storm is on it’s way
Better find a shelter or a breakaway
The wind is so strong that we can hardly move
How about just standing still
Is there anything that we gotta prove?
They say the sun will come to shine We know
double rainbows may appear after the rain
And all the gurus say that we should let it go
But when there’s something in our mind
That we want to leave behind
It ain’t easy to just face the void it brings
I thought that you were liberating me
Giving me a higher point of view
But I was just clinging to the shallow vision we see
When we’re giving in to all the chances we blew
I wonder if I can
Be a shelter in the storm for another man
We’re talking way too much about peace of mind
It’s a matter of what are we ready to leave behind
They say the sun will come to shine We know
double rainbows may appear after the rain
And all the gurus say that we should let it go
But when there’s something in our mind
That we want to leave behind
It ain’t easy to just face the void it brings
Breaking away from all the past and all the shame
Right here, right now, like this is where I am today
Good and bad I’ll take it all
I’m Moving on I’m moving on
They say the sun will come to shine We know
double rainbows may appear after the rain
And all the gurus say that we should let it go
I believe that we can transmutate the pain

DAYS LIKE THIS (S.Cocchi)
There’ll be days like this
When you wanna leave everything behind
There’ll be days when you cherish
Every single thing that you find
Sometimes you don’t know why you’re getting out of bed
But you do it anyway
‘cause days like these are the ones
The ones that make you want to play
A game that is different
With rules you created yourself
While the pieces of you life are all there
Looking at you from the shelf
You say “Thank you for what you’ve done
And for watching over me”
But there’ll be days like this
When you just need to go
And be a little lost at sea
And you know you’ll feel out there on you own
Like a ship that hasn’t yet found a shore
But something deep inside
makes you want to go on
in case there is just a little more
All the times when you broke yourself down
Cannot get rid of them no matter where you go
There’ll be days like this
When you surrender to the breeze
Or the heavy winds that blow
And they will lead you to startling places
Where you’ll encounter different kinds of faces
There’ll be days like this
When all the time you think you lost
Makes you realize that you’re on your own
Days like this
When you don’t know what you’re gonna do
A lump in your throat
and a heartache that is piercing through
Make you tougher with no bitterness
Softer in a very strange way
Cause it’s in days like this
That you can make the haunting past fade away
Ohh fade away
Fade away
Ohh fade away
Fade away
Ohh fade away
Fade away
There’ll be days like this
There’ll be days like this
There’ll be days like this

Nothing about her

Nothing about her (SirJo Cocchi)
Spring finally came flowers are here
That who once was a seed became so tall
And it’s sitting right here in front of me
You just cannot pretend you didn’t notice
When she looked your way
It’s not that hard to go astray
You think she just gave you a sign
But you are just another fool in line
She looks like a queen, she’s the prettiest you’ve seen
But you know nothing about her, nothing about her
And now she gets in her groove and she really knows how to move
But you know nothing about her, nothing about her
It’s true at times we don’t need words
We’re electromagnetic fields showing our feathers like birds
You feel that she could be your sliding door
Even if you’ve never seen her before
She looks like a queen, she’s the prettiest you’ve seen
But you know nothing about her, nothing about her
And now she gets in her groove and she really knows how to move
But you know nothing about her, nothing about her
And she’ll get in your dreams and in your unconscious stream
But you know nothing about her, nothing about her
Why do we need to conquer others to conquer ourselves?
It’s like we never have enough we gotta prove that we can pass every test
And she may not look hip, but she can take you on a wonderful trip
But you know nothing about her, nothing about her
And she ain’t sophisticated but you can tell she’s been underrated
But you know nothing about her, nothing about her
And you wish you could call her cause you’re sure you’d make her wanna holler
But you know nothing about her, nothing about her

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
