Dawn is a feeling
A beautiful ceiling The smell of grass Just makes you pass Into a dream You're here today No future fears This day will last A thousand years If you want it to You look around you Things they astound you So breathe in deep You're not asleep Open your mind You're here today No future fears This day will last A thousand years If you want it to Do you understand That all over this land There's a feeling In minds far and near Things are becoming clear With a meaning Now that you're knowing Pleasure starts flowing It's true life flies Faster than eyes Could ever see You're here today No future fears This day will last A thousand years If you want it to |

(Evening: Time to Get Away)
Evening has come to pass, The time of day doesn't last. Evening, has earned its place today, I'm tired of working away. Working, living it brings, Only way to have those things. Toiling has bought too many tears, Turn 'round all those past years. Evening time to get away. Evening time to get away. Evening time to get away. 'Til next day. Live all you people, You can't see where you're at, It doesn't really hurt you, So that can't be bad. (repeat) Evening time to get away. Evening time to get away. ----- (Evening: The Sun Set) When the sun goes down, and the clouds all frown, Night has begun for the sunset. See it with your eyes, Earth's re-energized By the sun's rays everyday. Take a look out there, planets everywhere. When the sun goes down, and the clouds all frown, Night has begun for the sunset. Shadows on the ground, never make a sound, Fading away in the sunset. Night has now become day for everyone. I can see it all, from this great height, I can feel the sun, slipping out of sight. And the world still goes on through the night. ----- (Evening: Twilight Time) Twilight time to dream awhile, In veils of deepening blue. As fantasy strides, over colourful skies, Of form disappearing from view. In twilight time, dream with me awhile. A nightingale plays a dark mellow phrase, Of notes that are rich and so true. An aerial display by the firefly brigade, Dancing to tunes no one knew. In twilight time, dream with me awhile. In twilight time, dream with me awhile. Building castles in the air, Whistling to the wind. As nature bows down her head, See what tomorrow brings. In twilight time, dream with me awhile. Bats take to wing like puppets on string, Prancing through cool evening air. In a sightless glide, no reason to hide Away from the sun's blinding stare. In twilight time, dream with me awhile. In twilight time, dream with me awhile. |

I see it all through my window it seems
Never failing like millions of bees Our life is run No time will be won All they need to do-o-o-o What can be done? Peak hour, peak hour, peak hour Minds are subject to what should be done Problem solved, time cannot be won One hour a day One hour at night Sees crowds of people Home in full flight Peak hour, peak hour, peak hour It makes me want to run out and tell them They've got time Take a step back out and look in I found out I've got time Minds are subject to what should be done Problem solved, time cannot be won One hour a day One hour at night Sees crowds of people Home in full flight Peak hour, peak hour, peak hour |

Nights in white satin never reaching the end
Letters I've written never meaning to send Beauty I'd always missed with these eyes before Just what the truth is I can't say any more Cause I love you Yes I love you Oh how I love you Gazing at people some hand in hand Just what I'm going through they can't understand Some try to tell me thoughts they cannot defend Just what you want to be you'll be in the end And I love you Yes I love you Oh how I love you, oh I love you |

Tuesday afternoon
I'm just beginning to see Now I'm on my way It doesn't matter to me Chasing the clouds away Something calls to me The trees are drawing me near I've got to find out why Those gentle voices I hear Explain it all with a sigh I'm looking at myself, reflections of my mind It's just the kind of day to leave myself behind So gently swaying through the fairy-land of love If you'll just come with me and see the beauty of Tuesday afternoon Tuesday afternoon Tuesday afternoon I'm just beginning to see Now I'm on my way It doesn't matter to me Chasing the clouds away Something calls to me The trees are drawing me near I've got to find out why Those gentle voices I hear Explain it all with a sigh |

Cold-hearted orb that rules the night,
Removes the colors from our sight, Red is gray and yellow white, But we decide which is right, And which is an illusion. Pinprick holes in a colorless sky, Let insipid figures of light pass by, The mighty light of ten thousand suns, Challenges infinity and is soon gone. Nighttime, to some a brief interlude, To others the fear of solitude. Brave Helios, wake up your steeds, Bring the warmth the countryside needs. |

Children sighing,
What a day to go kite flying. Breeze is cool, Away from school Cowboys fighting out a duel. Time seems to stand quite still, In a child's world it always will. Fish is biting, So exciting! Lunchtime sounds so inviting. At the bill He gets a thrill Sitting, watching bobbing quill. Time seems to stand quite still, In a child's world it always will. Yesterday's dreams Are tomorrow's sighs. Watch children playing, They seem so wise. Mary Green Today's a queen One thousand dollies are her dream. In cotton frocks And golden locks, Her palace is an orange box Time seems to stand quite still, In a child's world it always will. |

Be it sight, sound, smell, or touch,
There's something inside, that we need so much. The sight of a touch, or the scent of a sound, Or the strength of an oak, with roots deep in the ground. The wonder of flowers, to be covered, and then to burst up, Through tarmac, to the sun again, or to fly to the sun Without burning a wing; to lie in a meadow And hear the grass sing; to have all these things In our memory's hoard, and to use them, To help us, to find...... |

Stepping out of the jungle gloom Into the midday sun. What did you find there? Did you stand awhile and stare? Did you meet anyone? "I've seen butterflies galore, I've seen people big and small, I've still not found what I'm looking for." We're all looking for someone. We're all looking for someone. We're all looking for someone.

With someone shouting to be free The play unfolds before my eyes There stands the actor who is me The sleeping hours takes us far From traffic, telephones and fear Put out your problems with the cat Escape until a bell you hear Our reasons are the same But there's no-one we can blame For there's nowhere we need go And the only truth we know comes so easily The sound I have heard in your hello Oh, oh, darling, you're almost part of me Oh, oh, darling, you're all I'll ever see Ah, ah, ah It's such a rainy afternoon No point in going anywhere The sounds just drift across my room I wish this feeling I could share It's such a rainy afternoon She sits and gazes from her window Her mind tries to recall his face The feeling deep inside her grows Our reasons are the same But there's no-one we can blame For there's nowhere we need go And the only truth we know comes so easily The sound I have heard in your hello Oh, oh, darling, you're almost part of me Oh, oh, darling, you're all I'll ever see The sound I have heard in your hello Oh, oh, darling, you're all I'll ever see Oh, oh, darling, you're almost part of me Ah, ah, ah |

Some, we get a sound so sweet. Vibrations reach on up to become light, And then through gamma, out of sight. Between the eyes and ears there lie The sounds of color and the light of a sigh. And to hear the sun, what a thing to believe, But it's all around if we could but perceive. To know ultra-violet, infra-red, and x-rays, Beauty to find in so may ways. Two notes of the chord, that's our full scope, But to reach the chord is our life's hope. And to name the chord is important to some, So they give it a word, and the word is OM. |

If you could talk to me, what news would you bring? Of voices in the sky. Nightingale hovering high, harmonize the wind. Darkness your symphony, I can hear you sing, Of voices in the sky. Just what is happening to me? I lie awake with the sound of the sea, Calling to me. Old man passing by, tell me what you sing. Though your voice be faint, I am listening. Voices in the sky. Children with a skipping rope, tell me what you sing. Playtime is nearly gone, bell's about to ring. Voices in the sky. |

Take another sip my love and see what you will see,
A fleet of golden galleons, on a crystal sea. Are you sitting comfortably? Let Merlin cast his spell. Ride along the winds of time and see where we have been, The glorious age of Camelot, when Guinevere was Queen. It all unfolds before your eyes As Merlin casts his spell.

Wake up, for tea and buttered scones (It's such a crying shame) Such a lot of work for you Sunday moms.(Week after week the same.) Today's heaven-sent and you're feeling content, You worked all week long. Still, it's quite sad, tomorrow's so bad And I don't feel too strong.

My heart is heavy, it's weighed down by the night. And now I'm lonely, I want to see the light So deep within you. Cool wind is blowing through your crazy hair. Warm colours flowing, this feeling we have shared. And now I'm lonely, I want to feel the love So deep within you. Your love's a never-ending dream A castle by a stream of sweet understanding I know you're thinking of me too, The messages from you are my inspiration. Love's incense lingers, it never fades away. Like you I'm waiting for our special day. And now I'm lonely I want to feel the love So deep within you My love is burning, like a forest fire My heart is yearning, I feel a warm desire. And now I'm lonely, I want to touch the fire So deep within you. |

When the white eagle of the North is flying overhead
The browns, reds and golds of autumn lie in the gutter, dead. Remember then, that summer birds with wings of fire flaying Come to witness spring's new hope, born of leaves decaying. As new life will come from death, love will come at leisure. Love of love, love of life and giving without measure Gives in return a wondrous yearn of a promise almost seen. Live hand-in-hand and together we'll stand on the threshold of a dream. |

Hark listen here he comes
Hark listen here he comes Turning, spinning, catherine wheeling For ever changing There's no beginning Speeding through a charcoal sky Observe the truth we cannot lie Travelling eternity road What will you find there? Carrying your heavy load Searching to find a peace of mind. You'll see us all around You'll see us all around Turning, spinning, catherine wheeling For ever changing There's no beginning You're so very far from home And so very much alone Travelling eternity road What will you find there? Carrying your heavy load Searching to find a peace of mind. Travelling eternity road What will you find there? Carrying your heavy load Searching to find a peace of mind. |

Floating free as a bird
Sixty foot leaps it's so absurd From up here you should see the view Such a lot of space for me and you Oh you'd like it Gliding around, get your feet off the ground Oh you'd like it Do as you please with so much ease Now I know how it feels To have wings on my heels To take a stroll among the stars Get a close look at planet Mars Oh you'd like it Gliding around, get your feet off the ground Oh you'd like it Do as you please with so much ease Bouncing about on the moon Guess you'll all be up here soon The candy stores they'll be brand new And you'll buy a rock with the moon right through Oh you'd like it Gliding around, get your feet off the ground Oh you'd like it Do as you please with so much ease Come fly... Come fly... Come fly... |

Scatter good seed in the fields. Life's ours for the making, Eternity's waiting, waiting, For you and me.

Blasting, billowing, bursting forth
With the power of ten billion butterfly sneezes Man with his flaming pyre Has conquered the wayward breezes Climbing to tranquility Far above the cloud Conceiving the heavens Clear of misty shroud Higher and higher Now we've learned to play with fire Go higher and higher and higher Vast vision must improve our sight Perhaps at last we'll see and end To our homes endless blight And the beginning of the free Climb to tranquility Finding its real worth Conceiving the heavens Florishing on earth Higher and higher Now we've learned to play with fire Go higher and higher and higher |

Watching and waiting for a friend to play with
Why have I been alone so long Monet is borrowing his way to the sunlight He knows there's someone there so strong 'Cause here there's lots of room to do in The things you've always been denied Look and gather all you want to There's no one here to stop you if you try Soon you will see me 'cause I'll be all around you But where I come from I can't tell But don't be alarmed by my fields and my forests They're here for only you to share 'Cause here there's lots of room to do in The things you've always been denied So look and gather all you want to There's no one here to stop you if you try Watching and waiting for someone to understand me I hope it won't be very long |

I've been searching for my dream
A hunderd times today I build them up, you knock them down, Like they were made of clay, Then the tide rushes in And washes my castles away. Then I'm really not so sure When side of the bed I should lay, I should lay... You keep looking for someone To tell your troubles to, I'll sit down and lend an ear Yet I hear nothing new. Then the tide rushes in And washes my castles away. Then I'm really not so sure When side of the bed I should lay, I should lay... Blackbird sitting in a tree Observing what's below Acorns falling to the ground, He'll stay and watch them grow. |

Rise, let us see you,
Dawning is the day, Miss, misty meadow, You will find your way, Wake up in the morning to yourself and leave this crazy life behind you. Listen, we're trying to find you. Flow to the sea, You know where to go, Still we are free, No one tells the wind which way to blow. Wake up in the morning to yourself, Open your eyes and start to be you. Listen, we think we can see you. Baby there's no price upon your head, Sing it, shout it. Now the angry words have all been said. Do it, don't doubt it. So rise, let us see you, Dawning is the day, Miss, misty meadow, You will find your way, Wake up in the morning to yourself, open your head and look around you. Listen, we think we have found you. |

Ask the mirror on the wall
Who's the biggest fool of all, Bet you feel small, It happens to us all. See the world Ask what's it for, Understanding, nothing more, Don't you feel small, It happens to us all. Time is now to spread your voice, Time's to come there'll be no choice, Why do you feel small, It happens to us all. Look at progress, Then count the cost, We'll spoil the seas With the rivers we've lost. See the writing on the wall, Hear the mirror's warning call. That's why you feel small, It happens to us all. Ask the mirror on the wall Who's the biggest fool of all, Bet you feel small, It happens to us all. |

How is it we are here, on this path we walk,
In this world of pointless fear, filled with empty talk, Descending from the apes as scientist-priests all think, Will they save us in the end, we're trembling on the brink. Men's mighty mine-machines digging in the ground, Stealing rare minerals where they can be found. Concrete caves with iron doors, bury it again, While a starving frightened world fills the sea with grain. Her love is like a fire burning inside, Her love is so much higher it can't be denied, She sends us her glory, it's always been there, Her love's all around us, it's there for you and me to share. Men's mighty mine-machines digging in the ground, Stealing rare minerals where they can be found. Concrete caves with iron doors, bury it again, While a starving frightened world fills the sea with grain. How is it we are here How is it we are here How is it we are here |

When the breeze between us calls, love comes and lingers into our
lives, And the leaves begin to fall, you point your finger at me. I love you- I love you- In the sadness of your smile love is an island way out to sea, But it seems so long ago we have been ready trying to be free. And it's up to you, Why won't you say? Make our lives turn out this way. If they knew, that we have got nothing to lose, No reason to hide from what's true. In the world of me and you All is forgotten when we're inside And the words that pass us by, I am not listening, all of it's lies. And it's up to you, Why won't you say? Make our lives turn out this way. If they knew, that we have got nothing to lose, No reason to hide from what's true, That we have got nothing to lose. |

Words a simple song
A minstrel sings A way of life in his eyes Hear the morning call of waking birds When they are singing, bringing Love - love. Everywhere love is all around, Everywhere love is all around. Now the winter's gone Cold wind has blown The endless stream in our lives Where the minstrel sings This simple song He's always bringing, singing, Love - love. Everywhere love is all around, Everywhere love is all around. Listen to the one Who sings of love. Follow our friend, Our wandering friend, Listen to the one, Who sings of love. Everywhere love is around, Around, around. Here the nations sing Our minstrel's song, As he walks by in their lives Soon the spring will come, And everyone will all be singing, bringing Love - love Everywhere love is all around, Everywhere love is all around. Listen to the one Who sings of love. Follow our friend, Our wandering friend, Listen to the one, Who sings of love. Everywhere love is around, Around, around. |

Why do we never get an answer
When we're knocking at the door With a thousand million questions About hate and death and war? 'Cause when we stop and look around us There is nothing that we need In a world of persecution that is burning in its greed Why do we never get an answer When we're knocking at the door Because the truth is hard to swallow That's what the war of love is for It's not the way that you say it When you do those things to me It's more the way that you mean it When you tell me what will be And when you stop and think about it You won't believe it's true That all the love you've been giving Has all been meant for you I'm looking for someone to change my life I'm looking for a miracle in my life And if you could see what it's done to me To lose the love I knew Could safely lead me through Between the silence of the mountains And the crashing of the sea There lies a land I once lived in And she's waiting there for me But in the grey of the morning My mind becomes confused Between the dead and the sleeping And the road that I must choose I'm looking for someone to change my life I'm looking for a miracle in my life And if you could see what it's done to me To lose the love I knew Could safely lead me to The land that I once knew To learn as we grow old The secrets of our soul It's not the way that you say it when you do those things to me It's more the way you really mean it when you tell me what will be Why do we never get an answer When we're knocking at the door With a thousand million questions About hate and death and war 'Cause when we stop and look around us There is nothing that we need In a world of persecution that is burning in its greed .....

After he had journeyed,
And his feet were sore, And he was tired, He came upon an orange grove And he rested And he lay in the cool, And while he rested, he took to himself an orange and tasted it, And it was good. And he felt the earth to his spine, And he asked, and he saw the tree above him, and the stars, And the veins in the leaf, And the light, and the balance. And he saw magnificent perfection, Whereon he thought of himself in balance, And he knew he was. Just open your eyes, And realize, the way it's always been. Just open your mind And you will find The way it's always been. Just open your heart And that's a start. And he thought of those he angered, For he was not a violent man, And he thought of those he hurt For he was not a cruel man And he thought of those he frightened For he was not an evil man, And he understood. He understood himself. Upon this he saw that when he was of anger or knew hurt or felt fear, It was because he was not understanding, And he learned, compassion. And with his eye of compassion. He saw his enemies like unto himself, And he learned love. Then, he was answered. Just open your eyes, And realize, the way it's always been. Just open your mind And you will find The way it's always been. Just open your heart And that's a start. |

Be he's still going slow, He's ahead in the race, And there is not far to go, And your load is so heavy And your legs want to rest. It's all right, it's all right, it's all right.

Since it began I've got one dream and really It's my only blessing
If I can come through then so can you And you will find there's no regretting Things that you want from your life's font Will never let your spirit grow Come back to earth for what it's worth For you've been dreaming of the ceiling not a home I've been doing my best What else can I do? Is there something I've missed That will help you through I've reached the top of my wall I've found another way to fall For some short time For a while you and I were joined to eternity Then we're split in two back to me and you Like the rain rising from the sea Rising from the sea We all can see what we shall be But knowing's really not controlling With time perhaps I'll pass the traps and find some peace and understanding After you've come and while you're gone You leave me guessing - It's depressing Never to know the way to go to find some time along a little less pressing So you just have to laugh When it hurts so much You're so far away and so hard to touch I've reached the top of my wall I've found another way to fall Since it began I've got one dream and really It's my only blessing If I can come through then so can you And you will find there's no regretting Things that you want from your life's font Will never let your spirit grow Come back to earth for what it's worth For you've been dreaming of the ceiling not a home I've been doing my best What else can I do?

Lovely to know the warmth
Your smile can bring to me I want to tell you but the words you do not know Sing me a lullaby Of songs you cannot write And I will listen for where there's beauty there's love And in the morning of my life And in the evening of my life I will try to understand in what you say? Rivers of endless tides Have passed beneath my feet And all too soon they had me standing on my own Then when my eyes were closed You opened them for me And now we journey thro' our lives to what will be And in the morning of my life And in the evening of my life I will try to understand in what you say? Through all that life can give to you Only true love will see you through And we'll stand beside you in what you say? Repeat 6th verse Take me into your world Alone I cannot go For I've been here so long You're leaving me behind Walk with me now Into your land of fairy tales And open up that book of pages in my mind And open up that book of ages in my mind And open up that book of pages in my mind And open up that book of ages in my mind? ------------- Lyrics Powered by LyricFind Written By JOHN LODGE <i>Lyrics © Universal Music Publishing Group</i> |

I'm going to sing my song
And sing it all day long A song that never ends How can I tell you, all the things inside my head. The change in these past years Has made me see our world In many different ways How can I tell you, love can change our destiny. Love can change the world Love can change your life Do what makes you happy Do what you know is right And love with all your might Before it's too late Where did I find all these words Something inside of me is burning There's life in other worlds Maybe they'll come to earth Helping man to find a way One day I hope we'll be in perfect harmony A planet with one mind Then I could tell you All the things inside my head I'm going to sing my song And sing it all day long A song that never ends How can I tell you, all the things inside my head. I'm going to sing my song A song that never ends |

Lying in the sun Lovely weather, must climb a tree The show has just begun All the leaves start swaying To the breeze that's playing On a thousand violins And the bees are humming To a frog sat strumming On a guitar with only one string I can see them they can't see me I feel out of sight I can see them they can't see me Much to my delight And it seems worth noting Water rats were boating As a lark began to sing The sounds kept coming With Jack Rabbit loudly drumming On the side of a biscuit tin I can see them they can't see me I feel out of sight I can see them they can't see me Much to my delight Silver minnows were devising Water ballet so surprising A mouse played a daffodil A mole came up blinking Underneath an owl who's thinking How he came to be sat on a hill I can see them they can't see me I feel out of sight I can see them they can't see me Much to my delight I know you won't believe me But I'm certain that I did see A mouse playing daffodil All the band was really jumping With Jack Rabbit in there thumping I found that I couldn't sit still I just had to make it with them Cause they played my kind of rhythm And the bees hummed in harmony And the owl played his oboe Then the frog's guitar solo It was all just too much for me I know you won't believe me But I'm certain that I did see A mouse playing daffodil All the band was really jumping With Jack Rabbit in there thumping I found that I couldn't sit still ... |

Walking in the sand
Thinking of things adventures in my mind Tall ships that sail Across the oceans wide They won't wait for me See how they glide away so gracefully And with tomorrow what will become of me It leaves me so much to explain That's the start of our guessing game. There are times when I think I've found the truth There are times when I know that I'm wrong And the days when I try to hide my fears Bless the days when I'm feeling strong Bless the days when I'm feeling strong Wonder why we try so hard Wonder why we try at all You wonder why the world is turning around When in the end it won't matter at all Standing in the town Looking at people, counting their frowns Unhappy faces, hurrying around So blind they cannot see All of these things The way life ought to be And with tomorrow what will they make of me It leaves me so much to explain That's the start of our guessing game There are times when I think I've found the truth There are times when I know that I'm wrong And the days when I try to hide my fears Bless the days when I'm feeling strong There are times when I think I've found the truth There are times when I know that I'm wrong And the days when I try to hide my fears Bless the days when I'm feeling strong There are times when I think I've found the truth ... |

I don't know what I'm searching for
I never have opened the door, Tomorrow might find me at last, Turning my back on the past, But, time will tell, of stars that fell, A million years ago. Memories can never take you back, home, sweet home. You can never go home anymore. All my life I never really knew me till today, Now I know why, I'm just another step along the way, I lie awake for hours, I'm just waiting for the sun. When the journey we are making has begun, Don't deny the feeling that is stealing through your heart, Every happy ending needs to have a start. All my life I never really knew me till today, Now I know why, I'm just another step along the way, Weep no more for treasures you've been searching for in vain. 'Cos the truth is gently falling with the rain, High above the forest lie the pastures of the sun, Where the two that learned the secret are now one. I don't know what I'm searching for I never have opened the door, Tomorrow might find me at last, Turning my back on the past, But, time will tell, of stars that fell, A million years ago. Memories can never take you back, home, sweet home. You can never go home anymore. |

My boat sails stormy seas
나의 보트는 폭풍속의 바다를 항해합니다. Battles oceans filled with tears 눈물로 채워진 대양들을 헤쳐나가지요 At last my port's in view 드디어 저 앞에 항구가 보이고 Now that I've discovered you 나는 당신을 발견했습니다. Oh I'd give my life so lightly 내 인생을 기꺼이 드리겠어요 For my gentle lady 나의 우아한 여인을 위해 Give it freely and completely 아낌없이 전부 드리겠어요 To my lady 나의 여인에게 As life goes drifting by like a breeze 인생이 미풍처럼 흘러갈 때 She'll gently sigh and slowly bow her head 그녀는 부드럽게 한숨을 내쉬고 고개를 천천히 숙입니다 Then you'll hear her softly cry 그리고 당신은 나지막한 그녀의 울음소리를 들을 수 있어요 Words that you say when we're alone 우리가 외로울 때 당신은 Though actions speak louder than words 말보다는 행동이 효과적이라고 말했습니다만, But all I can say is I love you so To drive away all my hurt 그러나 내가 말할 수 있는 단 하나 당신을 너무 사랑한다는 말입니다. Set sail towards the sun 태양을 향해 항해하며 Feel the warmth that's just begun 따뜻함을 느낍니다 Share each and every dream 꿈을 나누어요 They belong to everyone 그 꿈들은 모두의 것입니다. |

Isn't life strange A turn of the page Can read like before Can we ask for more Each day passes by How hard man will try The sea will not wait You know it makes me want to cry, cry, cry Wish I could be in your heart To be one with your love Wish I could be in your eyes Looking back there your were and here we are Isn't love strange A word we arrange With no thought or care Maker of despair Each breath that we breathe With love we must weave To make us as one You know it makes me want to cry, cry, cry Wish I could be in your heart To be one with your love Wish I could be in your eyes Looking back there you were, and here we are Isn't life starnge A turn of the page A book without light Unless with love we write To throw it away To lose just a day The quicksand of time You know it makes me wqnt to cry cry, cry Wish I could be in your heart To be one with your love Wish I could be in your eyes Looking back there you were and here we are |

Thinking only of themselves They shun the light (Shun the light) They think they're right (Think they're right) Living in their empty shells Oh, can you see their bodies thrashing? (So many people, so many people) Crashing down around their feet Angry people in the street Telling them they've had their fill Of politics, people who kill Grow... the seed of evolution (So many people, so many people) Revolution everyone It's just another form of gun To do again what they have done Let all our brothers come and get some (So many people, so many people) Everywhere you go you see them searching Everywhere you turn you feel the pain Everyone is looking for the answers Well, look again; come on, my friend Love will find us in the end Come on, my friend (On, my friend) We've got to bend (Got to bend) Down on our knees and say a prayer Oh, can you see the world is pining? (So many people, so many people) Pining for someone who really cares enough to share his love With all of us so we can be An ever-loving family Have we forgotten who loves who? (So many people, so many people) Children from a family tree That's longer than a centipede Started long ago when you and I Where only love...

Well I've had dreams enough for one
And I've got love enough for three I have my hopes to comfort me I got my new horizons out to sea But I'm never gonna lose your precious gift It will always be that way 'Cos I know I'm gonna find my own peace of mind Someday Where is this place that we have found? Nobody knows where we are bound I long to hear, I need to see 'Cos I've shed tears too many for me, me But I'm never gonna lose your precious gift It will always be that way 'Cos I know I'm gonna find my own peace of mind Someday On the wind soaring free Spread your wings, I'm beginning to see Out of mind far from view Beyond the reach of a nightmare come true Well I've had dreams enough for one And I got love enough for three I have my hopes to comfort me I got my new horizons out to sea But I'm never gonna lose your precious gift It will always be that way 'Cos I know I'm gonna find my own peace of mind Someday, someway |

There's a leafless tree in Asia.
Under the sun there's a homeless man. There's a forest fire in the valley Where the story all began. What will be our last thought? Do you think it's coming soon? Will it be of comfort Or the pain of a burning wound? All we are trying to say Is we are all we've got. You and me just cannot fail If we never, never, stop. You're an ocean full of faces, And you know that we believe. We're just a wave that drifts around you, Singing all our hopes and dreams. We look around, in wonder, At the work that has been done. By the visions of our father, Touched by his loving son. All we are trying to say Is we are all we've got. You and me just cannot fail If we never, never, stop. All we are trying to say Is we are all we've got. You and me just cannot fail If we never, never, stop. You and me just cannot fail If we never, ever, never, ever, stop... |

Just like the driftwood of a dream
Left of the seashore of sleep Just like the words that wouldn't rhyme Lost in the desert of time Time waits for no one at all No, not even you You thought you'd seen it all before You really thought you knew I don't remember what was said In the confusion that night I only know what's on my mind What's in the future we will decide Time waits for no one at all No, not even you You thought you'd seen it all before You really thought you knew I've shattered the illusion Of fortune and of fame But darling now I know you Life could never be the same Oh no... don't leave me driftwood On the shore Time waits for no one my love No, not even you You thought you'd seen it all before You really thought you knew I've shattered the illusion Of forture and of fame I'm waking up I'm reaching up I'm getting up from this game Oh no... don't leave me driftwood On the shore Oh no... don't, don't leave me driftwood On the shore... |

What mattered to me was the right to be free
Like I'll be someday I'm waiting for my heart to lead the way The places I've seen and the roads in between Make me wonder why I'm searching for my dreams up in the sky I heard the call In the mirror I saw the writing on the wall And I had to fall in love with you The face that I've known seems so lost and alone When you're far away I'm comin' for you baby right away The places I've seen and the roads in between Make me wonder why I'm searching for me dreams up in the sky I heard the call In the mirror I saw the writing on the wall And I had to fall in love with you What mattered to me was the right to be free Like I'll be someday I'm waiting for my heart to lead the way |

One step into the light
One step away from night It's the hardest step you're gonna take The ship to take you there Is waiting at the head Of the stairs that lead up through your opening mind Above the dark despair Shines a light that we can share Close your eyes and look up in between your brows Then slowly breathing in Feel the life force streaming in Hold it there, then send it back to him All the old things are returning Cosmic circles ever turning All the truth we've been yearning for Life is our saviour, saviour, saviour, save your soul The river of living breath Is flowing through the sun He was there before the earth began The world will drag on you Use his love to pull you through Find the mission of your life and start to be All the old things are returning Cosmic circles ever turning All the truth we've been yearning for Life is our saviour, saviour, saviour, save your soul There's one thing I can do Play my mellotron for you Try to blow away your city blues Your dreams are not unfound Get your feet back on the ground The truth will set us free, we cannot lose We cannot love, we just have to choose |

I took a ride in a limousine, I took a road I'd never been. I met a stranger by the way, His coat was torn but his eyes were clear. Standing in a slide zone, Steppin' in a slide zone. He told me where a river flows, He showed me how the apple grows. He told me of a magic stream, His face was worn but his eyes were clear. Standing in a slide zone, I could be steppin' in a slide zone. Standing in a slide zone, I could be steppin' through a time zone. He went to find a shooting star, Around the bend, that's where they are. I went along just for the ride, Suddenly I began to slide. Standing in a slide zone, I could be steppin' through a time zone. The air raced by there was no sound, We drifted high above the ground. And then he said you know this place, And then a smile lit up his face. Standing in a slide zone, I could be steppin' in a slide zone. Standing in a slide zone, I could be steppin' through a time zone. I turned my head and I looked below, Slide zone... And there was something there I know. Suddenly I began to fall, I looked around and tried to call. Standing in a slide zone, He had me steppin' in a time zone. Standing in a slide zone, Falling through a time zone. Help me please, I thought I said, Then something happened in my head. Music came from all around, And I knew what I had found. Standing in a slide zone, Falling through a time zone. Steppin' in a slide zone, He had me falling through a time zone. Slide zone, slide zone, Slide zone, time zone |

I'll be waiting there I'll be waiting there for you Cos the years have been so lonely Like a dog without a home It's dangerous when you find out You've been drinking on your own The day we meet again We will walk in peace Thru the garden down the road Where the mist of time is lifting See it rising in the air Like the shadow I was chasing When I looked it wasn't there Oh no But just in case you're wondering What was really on my mind It wasn't what you took my love It's what you left behind And just in case you're wondering Will it really be the same You know we're only living for The day me meet again So hold on - and don't let go Time heals - you know - I know The day we meet again I'll be waiting there I'll be waiting there for you Cos the years have been so lonely Like a dog without a home It's dangerous when you find out You've been drinking on your own The day we meet again We will walk in peace Thru the garden down the road Where the mist of time is lifting See it rising in the air Like the shadow I was chasing When I looked it wasn't there Hold on baby don't let go |

And stole my dream Now I'll never know Just what it means Or what could have been Yet still I try to lie But I'm seen Under moonshine that's where I've been Under moonshine I'm clearly seen Under moonshine that's where I've been Under moonshine I'm clearly seen Creator of dreams that melt with the sun I'll send you the things this man has done He was a saint and a sinner rolled in one But I miss now that he's gone I sure miss him now that he's gone Sure I feel the pain Deep inside I pour like rain Remember when you smile Love's in your eyes The world keeps turning The grass still grows green The fruit on my tree Is the biggest you've ever seen Which way up you know when you're down They've gotta stand tall With your feet on the ground You must stand tall With your feet on the ground Or maybe I'm crazy Also they say I'm lazy But I'll have my days When I do as I please For you won't see the woods While you're a tree No you'll never see the woods While you're a tree Yes I'm crazy Also they say I'm lazy But I'll have my days When I do as I please You won't see the woods While you're a tree No you'll never see the woods While you're a tree |
