Slenger ut en sang fra mitt gamle band slickerball. *Soleil* er en av de tidlige sangene som vi øvde inn, og i etterpåklokskapens lys skulle den definitivt vært kortet ned med et vers eller to før første refreng.

Oppgave for den musikkinteresserte: Bassgangen er egentlig stjålet fra en kjent norsk hit fra tidlig nittitall (1991?). Hører du hvilken?

Tekst og melodi: Gunnar R Tjomlid

Vokal/kor/akustisk gitar: Gunnar R. Tjomlid  
Elektriske gitarer: Tor Sindre Tjomlid  
Bass: Marius Dalsmo  
Slagverk: Svein Frode Tjomlid

### **Soleil**

do you think I don't know you?  
do you think I can't see?  
don't you know that every word you say  
is a message straight to me?

do you think I can't feel it?  
do you think it's OK?  
don't you know that every time you turn  
you change my time of day?

so come on, come on

do you feel like a shadow?  
do you feel like a ghost?  
do you have to act like someone else  
when I say I love you most?

do you take me for granted?  
do you think it's OK?  
do you know that every time you sneeze  
you give yourself away?

so come on, come on

*Soleil* 
*don't you lie to me* 
*just lie with me for a minute* 
*Soleil* 
*don't you lie 'bout me* 
*just lie down here for a minute* 
*Soleil* 
*please be true to yourself* 
*Soleil* 
*and be youself*

now put up your antennas  
and adjust to my vibe  
now then can you sense those feelings that  
divorce you from my tribe?

is it too much to ask for?  
is it too much to crave?  
is this anti-mood you put me in  
a cool way to behave?

so come on, come on
