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? 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 ... |

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. |

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. The seven wonders of the world he'll lay before your feet, In far-off lands, on distant shores, so many friends to meet. Are you sitting comfortably? Let Merlin cast his spell. |

I'm the one in love, she isn't There's no girl standing there And there's no one who cares And the trees are so bare On the Boulevard de la Madeleine It's a sad day in Paris With no girl by my side Got to feeling so badly Like a part of me died It would have been So good to see her I never thought She wouldn't be there There's no girl standing there And there's no one who cares And the trees are so bare On the Boulevard de la Madeleine Oh, I wish I knew her better It's not easy to forget her There's no girl standing there And there's no one who cares And the trees are so bare On the Boulevard de la Madeleine It's a sad day in Paris With no girl by my side Got to feeling so badly Like a part of me died It would have been So good to see her I never thought She wouldn't be there There's no girl standing there And there's no one who cares And the trees are so bare On the Boulevard de la Madeleine |

You can go to church and sing a hymn Judge me by the colour of my skin You can live a lie until you die One thing you can't hide is when you're crippled inside. |

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. |

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...... |

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. |

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. Captain Scott, you were so bold, Now you're looking rather cold Out there in the snow. What did you find there? Did you stand awhile and stare? Did you meet anyone? "I've seen polar bears and seals, I've seen giant Antarctic eels, I've still not found what I'm looking for." We're all looking for someone. We're all looking for someone.

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> |

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?

(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. |

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. |

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 |

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 |

Mystery spead it's cloak
Across the sky We'd lost our way Shadows fell from trees They knew why Then thru the leaves a light broke thru A path lost for years lead us thru House of four doors I could live there forever House of four doors Would it be there forever? Lonliness, the face of pilgrims eyes was known As the door opened wide Beauty they had found before my eyes to see To the next door we came Love of music showed in everything we heard Thru the third door where are we? Enter in all ye who seek to find within As the plaque said on the last door |

So Sgt. Pepper took you by surprise,
You better see right through that mother's eyes. Those freaks was right when they said you was dead. The one mistake you made was in your head. Tell me, how do you sleep? Tell me, how do you sleep at night? You live with straights who tell you you was king. Jump when your momma tell you any thing. The only thing you done was Yesterday, And since your gone you're just another day. Tell me, how do you sleep at night? Tell me, how do you sleep at night? Ah, how do you sleep at night? A pretty face may last a year or two, But pretty soon they'll see what you can do. The sound you make is Muzak to my ears. You must have learned something in all those years. Ah, how do you sleep, brother? Ah, tell me how do you sleep at night? |

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 |

First Man: I think, I think I am, therefore I am, I think.
Establishment: Of course you are my bright little star, I've miles And miles Of files Pretty files of your forefather's fruit and now to suit our great computer, You're magnetic ink. First Man: I'm more than that, I know I am, at least, I think I must be. Inner Man: There you go man, keep as cool as you can. Face piles And piles Of trials With smiles. It riles them to believe that you perceive the web they weave And keep on thinking free. |

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 |

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. |

Lazy day, Sunday afternoon,
Like to get your feet up, watch TV. Sunday roast is something good to eat, Must be lamb today 'cause beef was last week. So full up, bursting at the seams, Soon you'll start to nod off, happy dreams. 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. Lazy day, Sunday afternoon, Like to get your feet up, watch TV. Sunday roast is something good to eat, (That's how your life goes by) Now it's almost over till next week.(Until the day you die.) |

When I telephone you
Don't make out you're not at home; It wouldn't hurt at all to answer the call. When I hold you near, When I call you ‘dear', You never seem to want to know me at all. Oh baby, Let me go. If I stay around Then you're gonna see my heart break. I can't stand all this heartache 'Cause I love you so, I find it hard to go, Well, I can see a change in your ways 'Cause when I'm turning to How much I think of you You always look away in a gaze. Oh baby, Let me go. If I stay around Then you're gonna see my heart break. I can't stand all this heartache Like we lost Every little of love you had for me, baby, I'm doing, let me go (not sure of this line) Let me go, let me go, this way, When I telephone you Don't make out you're not at home; It wouldn't hurt at all to answer the call. And when I hold you near, When I call you ‘dear', You never seem to want to know me at all. Oh baby, Let me go. If I stay around Then you're gonna see my heart break.

(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?

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.
