Sorry but I can’t talk about this My heart might fall into this Our dreams are doing a twist My sweet partner you’re the one I miss Twenty years on the road together We went through big storms together We went through so many different storms (We went through so many different storms) We’re now even stronger So don’t fall down my love Don’t be sad (Don’t be sad) The futur is bright Look at all what we got We went through so many different storms But look at what we got Look at what we got Pain take so many different forms But we still have what we’ve got Yeah We went through so many different storms But look at what we got Yeah Pain take so many different forms But we still have what we’ve got Baby I know you’ve been hurt for our last shot And I’m so sorry I can’t protect you from what you’ve got But I need you within earshot Cause I (I) don’t want to lose (want to lose) all what we had (All what we had) Oh we went through so many different storms But look at what we got Oh the road is ours when we’re together (Pain take so many different forms, but we still have what we’ve got) And storms, storms are nothing as long as we’re together (We went through so many different storms, but look at what we got) Storms are nothing if we stay together, storms are nothing Storms are nothing if we stay together, storms are nothing Storms are nothing if we stay together, storms are nothing

No Words 03:42
Dreams might be hard to remember Even if we try to Birds might be hard to catch Even if we really really really want to Love cannot be told Even if we tried for ages to draw it, to sing it, to write it We’re unable to Avoid chasm of sorrow, we burn of anger Though we still don’t know How to heal Take me in your arms and don’t say nothing Kiss my face and please don’t say nothing Hold my hands, look into my eyes No words, no words, no words So Take me in your arms and don’t say nothing Kiss my face and please don’t say nothing Hold my hands, look into my eyes No words, no words, no words You don’t need to listen because I won’t talk Being here with you is all I need No words (no), no words (no), no words (no) No words (no), no words (no), no words (no words) How can I tell the the beauty of the sunrise Seems really hard to do Do you remember the voices of people you’ve lost Now it sounds away from you When the pain is flooding you heart It doesn’t spring out of you Oh beauty can’t be told, joy is blindfold All we need is warmth When it’s cold Take me in your arms and don’t say nothing Kiss my face and please don’t say nothing Hold my hands, look into my eyes No words, no words, no words Oh Take me in your arms and don’t say nothing Kiss my face and please don’t say nothing Hold my hands, look into my eyes No words, no words, no words Oh Take me in your arms and don’t say nothing Kiss my face and please don’t say nothing Hold my hands, look into my eyes No words, no words, no words You don’t need to listen because I won’t talk Being here with you is all I need No words, no words, no words No words, no words, no words No words, no words, no words No words, no words, no words No words, no words, no words No words, no words, no words

Your love showers over me You haven’t changed This is the real you This is not not a revenge Wind blows on what we knew This is a second chance (This is a second chance) For all of us Oh this is This is a second chance (This is a second chance) A second chance For all of us Oh this is This is a second chance (This is a second chance) For all of us A second chance Oh this is This is a second chance You hold me (I hold you) You love me And l love you

about

Baby of a creative residency at Geneva’s Epicentre, «The Hill» is an album that takes us up high to admire the beauty in front of us, but also the strength that inhabits us. With its nine tracks composed around a grand piano, Elvett offers a contemporary soul sound lulled in samples, analog synthesizers and female vocals.

Accompanied by singer and jazz pianist Soraya Berent since their debut, Elvett surrounds themselves now with the talented singer and producer Gaspard Sommer alongside Chloe Baumgartner and Capucine Mugnier.

Like a jewellery box for the powerful voice of Lyn m, this new group returns to their first love: Soul, Blues and gospel. Nevertheless their constant search for novelty is satisfied thanks to the luminous productions of Alain Frey.

Signed to Mouthwatering Records in 2019, the project now exceeds 3,000,000 streams on spotify.
