(voice: prof. Frank Close)
When you look into a night sky, you see the stars far away. You're seeing them because of the light which travels from them to you. Now it takes time for light to travel here, so what you're doing is seeing the stars as they were in the past. The amount of time it has taken for the light to reach us. And the further and further away those stars are, the further back in time you are looking. Now you are seeing a star that is say six thousand years ago. Imagine somebody on that star looking at us. They would be seeing us as we were six thousand years ago. Which of those two is now? So space and time are linked together, as we are looking across space, we are looking back in time. |

Out of the blue, I come sailing
Through the years, through the years What do I do, now that I've seen All our hopes, and all of our fears And I'm riding, the lonely highway I'm the man, from out of the blue Yes I'm riding, the lonely highway I'm the man, from out of the blue I travel far, yet no distance I'm still here, always here So follow the call, to our senses Still there's hope, behind the fear And I'm riding, the lonely highway I'm the man, from out of the blue And I'm riding, the lonely highway I'm the man, from out of the blue Yes I'm riding, the lonely highway I'm the man, from out of the blue From out of the blue... |

I find this paradise
And rest beside a river No need to walk another mile It seems like everyone has everything That wishes could provide But no one seems to smile You won't believe me When I tell you this is fantasy Don't ask how long all this can last The same old sun will rise And make tomorrow just like yesterday And so your time will pass A shelter from the storm A room without a view A place where you belong And like a mother's kiss That carries you to sleep The ignorance is bliss One day the wind may change And blow at your defences And shake the ground on which you stand One day the tide may turn And wash away your castles in the sand And silence rule the land A shelter from the storm A room without a view A place where you belong And like a mother's kiss That carries you to sleep The ignorance is bliss One day the wind will change And blow away your wonderland Blue skies will soon be overcast One day the tide will turn And wash away your castles in the sand And you'll find peace, at last |

Well I've talked to the wind and I've listened to rain
I have climbed to the clouds and I've cried out with pain This life is for living so come to my side And open your heart, to the call of the wild We are all of one nation, all of one creed We are all out of nature, all of one seed We are in this together, man, woman and child So open your heart to the call of the wild We talk the same language in different tongues We're somebody's daughters and somebody's sons But those who believe we are head of the chain May wake up to find we are all that remain There is no need to fear what we don't understand For we breathe the same air and we walk the same land The strong and the anxious, the meek and the mild All dance to the drum, that's the call of the wild |

Yesterdays come easy
They're looking back at you The sun will rise tomorrow There's nothing you can do It's the same old story Coming round again What is done is done now You know you can't hold back the rain And there's no future in the past So take it slow ¨c you're getting nowhere fast You could be saving the situation now You'd better run like the devil if you still know how You know the tide is turning It's got you on the run Your last bridge is burning No time for having fun Time will wait for no one To get their day's work done We're in this boat together You know one and one and one ain't one And there's no future in the past So take it slow ¨c you're getting nowhere fast You could be saving the situation now You'd better run like the devil if you still know how We've come a long long way Maybe one day you'll see the light But don't let it die Don't let it fade away into the night Yesterdays come easy They're looking back at you The sun will rise tomorrow There's nothing you can do It's the same old story Coming round again What is done is done now You know you can't hold back the rain And there's no future in the past So take it slow ¨c you're getting nowhere fast You could be saving the situation now You'd better run like the devil if you still know how |

If you could press rewind and do it all again
Would you change your mind, would you change a thing Would you make it easy, would you make it hard Would you play the game under another name Or ask the dealer for one more card Bang your drum, sing your song Don't give up, keep the faith, it won't be long You've been high, you've been low Press rewind and let it go Have you had your say, seen all you wanted to see Or did your dream give way to reality Don't think it's all too late for you to even try Before you clip your wings, see what this life brings You've waited too long it's time to fly Bang your drum, sing your song Don't give up, keep the faith, it won't be long You've been high, you've been low Press rewind and let it go Do you believe in fate and what is meant to be Could you imagine life without a guarantee Would you appreciate that time was on your side A flash of second sight, a chance to do it right Is something money just can't buy Bang your drum, sing your song Don't give up, keep the faith, it won't be long You've been high, you've been low Press rewind and let it go |

I need to remember the day
When we said goodbye for the very last time There was still so much to say But time came between us and quietly stole you away Let me remember the day We walk to the garden and sit for a while The hours are slipping away Still I try to hold them and freeze them in time So leave me believing we'll meet here again Promise me some kind of sign As each day turns into night I blow out the candle and turn down the sheet And now that you've risen so high I know that you watch over me as i sleep Always believing we'll meet up again Waiting for some kind of sign So now I remember the day When we said goodbye for the very last time But no one can take you away 'Cause here in my memories There's never a very last time Never a very last time. |
