Dee VanHellemond - Miss Takes

'Miss Takes' by Dee VanHellemond

Entre viagens, larguei velhas programações, escapei-me das zonas de conforto, deixei tudo o que tinha tomado como adquirido, com isto encontrei a liberdade.
Sem julgamentos, condicionamentos, apegos - senti-me como se tivesse a dançar com o vento, rolar com as ondas, deixar-me levar com a corrente do rio e confiar que me levasse exactamente onde eu deveria estar.
Eu rendi-me ao pensamento de 'missing out' e 'missing it', enquanto cometia erros e aceitava os erros dos outros.
Miss my takes, mistakes, mistaking...
- o videoclipe foi filmado em Bali numa das minhas viagens a solo, muito antes de eu produzir esta canção, dancei ao som das ondas e nunca eu sonhava que se encaixaria perfeitamente nesta faixa anos depois.

In between travels I released old implements, escaped comfort zones, dropped all that I had taken for granted, with this I found freedom. No more judgements, conditioning, attachments - felt like dancing with the wind, rolling with the waves, like taking the river stream trusting it would take me exactly where I needed to be.
I surrendered to the thought of missing out and missing it, while making mistakes and accepting mistakes from others.
Miss my takes, mistakes, mistaking…
- this video clip was shot in Bali on one of my solo travels, way before I produced the song, I danced to the sound of the waves, never to dream it would fit perfectly years later.

Letra/Lyrics:

As hard
As it can be
Everything is temporary
Do you know your heart is free
No matter what you say to me

And those who are meant to be
Will stay right here for me
Go ahead and hide
Out of your pride
Now off of your mind

I miss my takes sometimes
Move ahead don't judge me I don't mind

In your arms
I'd like to melt away
I guess there's a prize to gain
And then I learn to love again
I think I found myself a men

Cause in the end I can't hold you
I won't control you
Love's not about
Owning you
Not owing you

I miss my takes sometimes
Move ahead don't judge me I don't mind

I miss my takes sometimes
Move ahead don't judge me I don't mind
I see as an opportunity not a crime
Using my heart not my mind

I miss my takes sometimes
What I've got to do to make it fine
Are you there 'n are you kind
Reality makes you blind

I miss my takes sometimes
Move ahead don't judge me I don't mind
