Andain – Beautiful things

Andain is an electronic band consisting of Josh Gabriel and Mavie Marcos. The song “Beautiful things” was the breakthrough for them and it became an instant classic. This might be one of the best trance songs ever.. Its been remixed more than a dozen times..

The lyrics..
Got up early, found something’s missing
My only name
No one else sees, but I got stuck
And soon forever came
Stopped pushing on for just a second
Then nothing’s changed
Who am I this time, where’s my name?
Guess it crept away

No one’s calling for me at the door
And unpredictable won’t bother anymore
And silently gets harder to ignore

Look straight ahead, there’s nothing left to see
What’s done is done, this life has got its hold on me
Just let it go, what now can never be

I forgot that I might see
So many beautiful things
I forgot that I might need
To find out what life could bring

Beautiful things

Take this happy ending away
It’s all the same
God won’t waste this simplicity
On possibility
Get me up, wake me up, dreams are filling
This trace of blame
Frozen still I thought I could stop
Now who’s gonna wait?

No one’s calling for me at the door
And unpredictable won’t bother anymore
And silently gets harder to ignore

Look straight ahead, there’s nothing left to see
What’s done is done, this life has got its hold on me
Just let it go, what now can never be

So many beautiful things
So many beautiful things

Now what do I do?
Can I change my mind?
Did I think things through?
It was once my life
It was my life at one time

The Videos – there are a lot of remixes lying around – so I have put in some of them too..
