The Renaissance (UK /rɨˈneɪsəns/, US /ˈrɛnɨsɑːns/, French pronunciation: [ʁənɛsɑ̃ːs], French: Renaissance, Italian: Rinascimento, from rinascere "to be reborn") was a cultural movement that spanned the period roughly from the 14th to the 17th century, beginning in Italy in the Late Middle Ages and later spreading to the rest of Europe. Though the invention of printing sped the dissemination of ideas from the later 15th century, the changes of the Renaissance were not uniformly experienced across Europe. As a cultural movement, it encompassed innovative flowering of Latin and vernacular literatures, beginning with the 14th-century resurgence of learning based on classical sources, which contemporaries credited to Petrarch, the development of linear perspective and other techniques of rendering a more natural reality in painting, and gradual but widespread educational reform. In politics the Renaissance contributed the development of the conventions of diplomacy, and in science an increased reliance on observation that would flower later in the Scientific Revolution beginning in the 17th century. Traditionally, this intellectual transformation has resulted in the Renaissance being viewed as a bridge between the Middle Ages and the Modern era. Although the Renaissance saw revolutions in many intellectual pursuits, as well as social and political upheaval, it is perhaps best known for its artistic developments and the contributions of such polymaths as Leonardo da Vinci and Michelangelo, who inspired the term "Renaissance man".
If I could be here with you today
I would change all my ways
Show you how I really care
Night and day I'd be there
All the moments I wasted then
Calling you on the phone
All the things I should have said
Like how much I need you
In my dreams I think of you
Of all the things I didn't do
Can I show you now
In the morning and the night
There's nothing that I wouldn't do
To have you in my life
I'd be there when you need a friend
When you're sad I'd be strong
Holding you to keep you warm
Be there when you need me
I would turn back the clock today
I'd be faithful and true
We could be in love again
What I wouldn't do for you
In my dreams I think of you
Of all the things we didn't do
Can I show you now
In the morning and at night
There's nothing that I wouldn't do
To have you in my life
In my dreams I think of you
Of all the things we didn't do
Can I show you now
In the morning and at night
There's nothing that I wouldn't do
Hearing the wind blowing over the hill
over the mountains so tall and so still
down through the forests they're
walkng alone
walking alone
out on the corners and out in the streets
this is their home now there's nothing to eat
these are the children longing to play
maybe today will be the day
Chorus:
Children being brave
a symbol of the age
touching people far away
children kneel and pray
children long to play
some will find a way
to escape this living hell
now only time will tell
Down from the village and into the town
leaving their brothers and sisters behind
innocent voices that cry in the night
cry in the night
what did they do to deserve all this pain
most of them won't see their mothers again
taken from childhood they'll never return
crying inside a silent painChorus
So small so weak
they rarely speak
the days go by
they wonder why
will someone help
take them away
their hearts just break
on each new day
Up in the morning they never do sleep
looking so helpless with nothing to keep
people walk past them not facing the truth
facing the truth
dirt on their faces and dust in their eyes
life passes them - not even a smile
holding their hands out is all that they know
holding each other in the cold
Chorus
First we take one step forward then we move back back two
In this time of selfless giving just think what we can do
Every day they wait for something not knowing what will be
Every night they lay back dreamin' of things we can not see--and
So the story goes
So the story goes
Take the time to give this Christmas, show them all you care
Here we stand hands joined together, we have this gift to share
We'll sing a song for all the people livin' in the streets
We'll give them hope to carry on now and dreams they'll always keep--oh
So the story goes
So the story goes
Think about your Christimas tidings, think of those with less
Give them all you've got to give to make this year the best
Now everybody make a circle and dance 'til you fall down
Bring them joy and love and laughter, the spirit has been found--yeah
So the story goes ... make them smile like Christmas time
So the story goes ... make them smile like Christmas time, Christmas time
So the story goes ... make them smile like Christmas time
So the story goes ... make them smile like Christmas time, Christmas time
So the story goes ...
When you get to the top in the small town
Then you find you got friends you never knew about
It's five AM but I keep on walkin'
I can't go home for success has locked me out
You see my luck went to his head
He could have kept quiet but instead
Now everyone knows
Chorus:
I'm running away from you
I'm running away from you
I'm running away from you
And your heart
It started off just a small time scandal
The people talk and they smile to win your confidence
Mistaken trust that you took as friendship
Has let you down when you needed to be up
Well all the money in the world
Can't buy the silence of this girl
So now everyone knows
Chorus
And you know that we will always stay
Lovers in a small town kind of way
But the high life called you
I should have known but instead
Chorus
Thinking back to when I first met you
So shy and young as an innocent
You were number one
No real desires I just want to be near you
You took my love, my emotion, then off you ran
My reputation as your flag
You held it high I bet you're glad
That everyone knows
Repeat chorus to end
A different smile upon her face
He's proud to be a part of it all
A welcome from the human race
A world so big and one that's so small
You see they've come so very far
But can't believe that's
The way it was planned
Just can't understand
That only angels have wings
With all the love they could give
Is this a fit place to live
Where only angels have wings
Through school days growing very fast
Today a boy, tomorrow a man
His roots set deeply in the past
It's hard but keep your head if you can
You see he's come so very far
But can't believe that's
The way it was planned
Just can't understand
That only angels have wings
Ambition so low with nowhere to go
As only angels have wings
Then suddenly an element of chance
Night falls on his town
The colours blend and dance
He's breaking in, no time to go back
There must be some way out
Making life easy - hear him shout it outHis father can't believe his ears
His mother stands with tears in her eyes
No child of theirs could be so wrong
Deep down inside a part of them dies
You see they tried so very hard
But just can't see that's
The way it was planned
Just can't understand
That only angels have wings
A part of our age, an action in rage
And only angels have wings
So far away, a time for second thought
Things seem much clearer now
The price for being caught
He longs for home and wants to go back
To how it was before
An ordinary person, happy to be born
Some people knocking at the door your tell them come on in
Still they hesitate and they don't se the way to go
Some people don't see what they're worth you tell them everything
Still they stand and wait don't seem to know the things they know
They're on the outside looking in
You tell them come on in
You give them everything
Lock in on love locked in on loving you
It's so simple and so true
Lock in on love you'll find out what to do
And your love will see you through
Some people sitting on the fence you tell them come right down
Still they seem to wait they seem afraid to let it be
Some people don't know what to do they haven't looked around
So they hold on tight they miss the things there are to see
They're on the fence they're looking down
You show them where they're bound
You tell them come around
Lock in on love your love will make you free
You'll be all that you can be
Lock in on love 'cause love is good for you
You will see what you can do
They're on the outside looking in
You tell them come on in
You give them everything
Lock in on love lock in on looking out
And you'll see what loves' about
Lock in on love you'll find your love can heal
And you'll know how much you feel
Lock in on love locked in on loving you
It's so simple and so true
Lock in on love you'll find out what to do
And your love will see you through
Watching the mist rolling over the sea
Watching the tide as it rolls into me
The ebb and flow just like my life
Contiual ups and downs
It's all part of the cycle
And the cycle must be round
Where's the affection in words when we say
I'm leaving tomorrow, I'm going away
Do the tears in your eyes
Make the future look blind
As you wait in your room
Spinning thoughts you may lose
When I think of all the times we've had
The times we've sat and thought
They were moments deep inside me
For all of my days - every way - every way Leaving your heart is the hard thing to do
Being so close has clouded my view
Holding you near is a thing of the past
But my memories exist and I hope they will last
When I think of all times I'm sad
The feel of all we've lost
They were moments I remember
For all of my days - every way
For all of my days - every way
Tonight when all the world's asleep
I'll bring
A love more tender
Than a robin's wing
Stars running free
Smiling at me
Knowing that up till now
I never believed in love
The north star knows
You may agree with him
But I was out the day
That love walked in
Most of my days
How I threw them away
Knowing that up till now
I never believed in love
Chorus:
When curtains close
The truth turns over
The dreams beyond
I find in more than a song
You came along
And now you've changed my viewSo pure and bright
The raindrop voices ring
To help the moon play
On his golden strings
Lighting the stage
Turning the page
How can it be up till now
I never believed in love
Chorus
So as we stand
Beneath the evergreen
The stars are not so silent
As they seem
They sparkle for you
You're gazing at me
Knowing that up till now
I never believed in love
Songs in the air
Everywhere
Telling me up till now
I never believed in love
Where we threw the stone
The stream ran warm inside the sun
Along the bank we walked
So clear that day
Worn by time, dust and weeds
Light and dark fell through the leaves
Where we sometimes laughed
So full of light and morning mist
We walked beneath the trees
So clear that day
Stark in winter, shadows black
Still in my mind, no turning back
(We sometimes laughed the day we threw the stone)
Chorus:
Forever changing
Light and dark horizons
Always turning, moving on
Forever changing
Near and far horizons
And changes take the day
Forever gone
Where we sometimes were
Our words still swirl all around
Whispers come and go
So clear that day
Some tomorrow other words
Blend with ours, their voices heard
And sometimes we heard our words that swirl and dance around
Chorus
In troubled times
I am surrounded by conflict
The world I see
Bound with the chains of limitation
And in this I'm confined
Filled with all that I am
I find all of my frailties
I can see no end
In troubled thoughts
I am aware of hesitation
My mind I see
Bound with the chains of reservation
And in this I'm restrained
Filled with less than I am
I find all of my frailties
I can see no end
(As you are, what you know
As you live, you will grow
Now that you have the key
You will come to be free
All the questions you ask
And the keys from the past
Say the answer is you
And you hold all the answers)I'd grow if I knew
(All this you will find)
The way
(With peace in time
You will find haromony weaving
A tapestry woven with threads of expectation
So grow with your love
Fill with all you can be
Your heart will encompass
All you may need to be free)
Dollars down the penny drain
Frozen in the clouds
Dream away the last of pain
In waterfalls of sounds
Float across the icy pools
Leaves with curl and sway
Now your mind is floating cool
And you can find the way
Can you understand you can really understand
When the darkness comes you still shine
Open up your eyes and make the day shine sunshine now
Open up your dreams and and make the way shine sunshine now
Can you understand you understand
Can you understand you understand
Open up your life and make your lifetime sunshine now
Open up your soul and make your lifeline sunshine now
Can you understand you understand
Can you understand you understand
Dancing without moving now
Growing with your soul
One with all around you now
Related to the all
Purple mist around your hair
Eyes are fading blue
Smiling into everywhere
Love is coming through
Six o'clock in the morning--I'm yawning
Get out of this bed
My heart started racing--now pacing
What was that you said?
Waiting so long for this day
And tomorrow we laugh
Hope the neighbours will open their papers
To my photograph
Chorus:
Of course I love you!
And I'll be careful, oh so careful
But I must win
There's no use waiting--watching, waiting
Got to keep my five-star rating, too
Now I run like the devil, draw level
You're crowding my day
Your concentration gives me stimulation
Get out of my way!
Feel the air rush past my face in first place, without thought to me
Mass attention becomes an extension of winning to me
Chorus
In control, speed kills, speed thrills
We are the power--come closer
Black and white soon in my time
The winning course--it's over
The winning course--take over
The winning course--it's up to me
[Instrumental bridge]
Now I run like the devil, draw level
You're crowding my day
Your concentration gives me stimulation
Get out of my way!
Chorus
Open up your magazine and see what's inside
I'm sure that you will find me--this is where I hide
Treat me as your fantasy, escape from the day
Into my model existance
I will take you far away
Chorus:
Camera camera, take a picture of me
Look through your lens
Tell me what do you find within your view?
Speak to me while I'm looking at you!
Am I pleasant and kind
All in all just one perfect smile
Or the face of regret
For someone that you've never met?
A schizophrenic, photogenic model of time
A picture of health a real gold mine
Lovely to look at and lovely to hold
A spirit that's broken and a heart that's ice cold
Trying hard to be so pretty since I don't know when?
All my time at work and play spent in this eight by ten
An epitaph of dedication, that's what they said
You know she nearly made it, but she had a child instead
Chorus:
(Instrumental to end)
Love goes on, love goes on, love goes on
As the days pass out of sight
Fading memories in the night
You have moved it once again
It's always there behind the main
Love goes on, love goes on, love goes on
One more day
I feel you near me
Breathe on me
In the morning
You're by my side
One more word
I hear yo whisper
In the night
When you touch me
I come alive
Chorus:And all the stars shining down
Speak to me when you're crying
Don't be afraid
I will take you home
Lost in a love machine
Lovers we've always been
Lost in love
One more night
There burns a fire
In my heart
When you kiss me
I fantasize
Repeat chorus two times
You caught my eye
In a room in New York
I wasn't sure
That your smile
Was for me, I was shy
Then you looked in my eyes
And I knew
Love was beginning
I love you
Down by the lake
Far away from New York
I saw you there
And my heart
Fell apart, I was hurt
I thought you were alone
I was wrong
You're with another
You're in love
Six days and seven nights
Since I last saw you
I should have called you
Longing and lonely nights
Is there a simple way
To make you love me
I'll be your lover now
Somewhere in those seven nights
My heart pined
And yours took flight
With another
I don't know whyChorus:
Six days and seven nights
Since I last saw you
I should have called you
Longing and lonely nights
Now there is no way
To make you love me
Lost in anothers love
Repeat chorus
That look in your eye
The touch of your hand
Oooh you know I like it
Hot summer nights
Oooh the warmth of your kiss
And you know I like it
Ooo-oooh you do something to me
Take me hold me la-la-la-love me
Touch me ooo-oooh every little thing I want you
Love me tonight
Hold me tight
Oooh you know I like it
The things that you do
I've got to have you
And you know I like it
Ooo-oooh you do something to me
Take me hold me la-la-la-love me
Touch me ooo-ooh every little thing I want youOoo-ooh you do something to me
Ooo-ooh you do something to me
Ooo-ooh you do something to me
Take me hold me la-la-la-love me
Touch me ooo-ooh every little thing I want you
Touch me ooo-ooh every little thing I want you
Let's say the words
I want to hear
And you know I like it
Hot summer nights
Ooo-ooo-ooo-ooh you know I like it
The warmth of your kiss
Ooo-ooo-ooo-ooh you know I like it
Ooo-ooo-ooo-ooh oh you know I like it
Lifetime you know I like it
It's too bad, we just made it past the start
It's too bad, you stole away my heart
I won't sleep right till I've got you by my side
I'll live and breathe you, the hunger won't subside
Chorus:
Oh, you don't know a good thing till it's gone
Oh no, you don't know a good thing
I can't stand not knowing how you feel
I can't stand not knowing if it's real
I don't believe it, is love ever fair
I just can't leave it hanging in the air Repeat chorus twice
You fill an empty space, you're under my skin
I just can't walk away from this state I'm in
When darkeness comes to me, I'll see your face
I'll feel you next to me and no one can take your place
I won't sleep right till I've got you by my side
(she wants) I want, (she needs) I need
The hunger won't subside
Repeat chorus twice
Did you see him there by the willows bending?
The moon's white shots fell like rain from on high
The love from his eyes floated, rivers unending
Into the sands where the spring of our hearts had run dry
Did you see him there and hear his soft calling?
The love sweet song rising from bottomless pain
The lord of our woes, on his wide shoulders falling
He bears in his mercy to break hatred's reign
Did you see him there in the ages of song?
His truth too simple for man to endure
I long to die for him there and I could not
And the dawns treat the sky with rose and azure
Did you see him there?
Did you see him there?
Did you see him there?
Did you see him there? ... there
In my wildest dreams
You always play the hero
In my darkest hour of night
You rescue me you save my life
In my wildest dreams
You're my Valentino
Like those silent picture days
You steal my heart and carry me away
Baby hold on ... Leave the world behind
Just close your eyes ... You'll find love this time
Follow your heart ... When you cross that line
Meet me here tonight in my wildest dreams
I always dream in colour
Somewhere between the black and white
You'll find our love can shine so bright
In my wildest dreams
We're stranded on an island
In our tropic paradise
You make love and wave the boats goodbyeBaby hold on ... Leave the world behind
Just close your eyes ... You'll find love this time
Follow your heart ... When you cross that line
Meet me here tonight in my wildest dreams
Drift away
Let's fly away ... Run with me
Leave the world behind
Just close your eyes ... You'll find love this time
Follow your heart ... When you cross that line
Meet me here tonight in my wildest dreams
We'll spread our wings like angels
Above the clouds we fly
We dance upon the stars and touch the sky
In my wildest dreams this night will last forever
Come dream with me
When a heart finds another
And the rain has no mercy
When a heart
I know someone
He's from out of town
Talks to no one
With his eyes looking down
I know someone
Makes me wonder why
When I see him
There's a rainbow in the sky
Make your move don't wait
Don't you wait too long
Or it's too late
For this foolish heart of mine
Chorus:
When a heart finds another
What's a cloud more or less in the sky
Our love's growing wings and learns to fly
And the rain has no mercy
Doesn't want to leave us a place to hide
What's a little rain if you're walking by my side
Streets are empty
There's no hope no light
Come on over
Won't you stay the night
In my fortress
I've got room for two
You can let go now
I will fight for you
Make your move don't wait
Don't you wait too long
Or it's too late
For this foolish heart of mine
Chorus
When a heart finds another
What's a cloud more or less in the sky
Our love's growing wings and learns to fly
And the rain has no mercy
Doesn't want to leave us a place to hide
All that rain and you're walking by my side
Chorus
When one heart finds another
I took a trip down to look at the fair
When I arrived I found nobody there
It seemed I was all alone
Must be that they've all gone home
Chorus:
A trip to the fair but nobody was there
A trip to the fair but nobody was there
Voices of yesterday make not a sound
Even the roundabout stopped going round
I wonder just what it means
Is everything how it seems?
Chorus
A creak as the dodgems came onto the scene
Wheels began turning I started to scream
A carousel swung around
My head spun and hit the ground
Chorus
I close my eyes to disguise the fear from inside
Trembling within my own mind I find no place to hide
Stars of tomorrow shine through the grey mist that has gone
I wish that this trip to the fair had never begun
Suddenly thousands of faces I see
Everyone seemed to be staring at me
Clowns laughed in the penny arcade
What was this game my mind played?
I took a trip down to look at the fair
When I arrived I found nobody there
It seemed I was all alone
Must be that they've all gone home
A trip to the fair but nobody was there, but nobody was there
A trip to the fair but nobody was there, but nobody was there
It is nothing to live as we do
Day to day we roam
Heart without a home of our own
Dust and passion lay in our throats
Revenge in each word that spoke
Childrens eyes fill our minds as we smoke
Chorus:
But somewhere out in the desert a figure moves at speed
And in his heart he carries the message that they need
We move against the tyrant
Words fall from his lips
The fire inside their eyes is lit
At daybreak freedom calls
We answer as one
From hiding in the hills we enter the burning sun
Danger fills the air and the dawn
Holds a sweet but stale perfume
Women know that soon they may lose
What good are men that love but our slaves
In a country they once called their own?
As they kissed goodbye they have flown
Chorus II
To be there out in the desert as horses move at speed
And in each heart is carried the message that they need
We move against the tyrant
Words fall from his lips
The fire inside their eyes is lit
At daybreak freedom called
We answered as one
From hiding in the hills we entered the gripping sun
Instrumental
Repeat second part of chorus I
And you would cause the sun to see your light
And then be shamed
You cover darkness with a thousand secret flames
With your love, oh my love, oh my love, my love
And I would cause the winds to blow a hundred different days
And bring the perfumes of the gardens of the ways
Of your love, oh my love, oh my love, my love
Crystal and the clay, nights and the days
All on the prince's seal
Eagle of the sky, lion of the earth
This is what the seal is worth, what the seal is worth
Holds all of the dreams of a man
Tapestries, wishes of man, pictures and visions of man
The spirit of the soul of the man
And he would vow to love her for the rest of all his days
The sea
Holds its many hands to me
And takes me
To places where I want to be
My dreams
Many fathoms far below
Like this
The pattern of my life will flow
Distant horizon
Melts in the sun
Turn and turn away
Feel the end of day
Hear the saddest call
The stars appear
I wonder how I'll be next year
The tide will bring anew
I hope there'll still be you
The moon in its sadness
Loose in the night
Glowing from above
Welcome joy and love
How can it be
That sun don't see
A simple truth
It seems to me
Clouds obscure the view
Sea awaits the view
Now
Watching winter pools take me to the sea
Carried by the wind sighing feeling free
On the beach alone seabirds circle there above me
Lonely winter day makes me want to stay
There where I belong
Where I am real, where I can feel sounds of the sea
Rivers flowing down streaming in the sand
Shells are tangled in seaweed drifting strands
Pools of silence stem peace is sounding all around me
Lonely winter day makes me want to stay
There where I belong
Where I am real, where I can feel sounds of the seaSun sets slowly and night returns once more
Standing by the surf coasting on the shore
Shadows in the night echoes of the sea inside me
Lonely winter day makes me want to stay
There where I belong
Where I am real, where I can feel sounds of the sea
The sisters worked for the people round them
Their Spanish lace wove some bread for the poor
And they cared and tried but were worn with
Their fears and the years of heartbreak
Dust and wine stained the men who knew them
The sweat of days in the angry sun
And the men were weak, and they cried
And they asked, ";Sisters, make us holy.";
The sisters prayed, ";Give us hope for something.";
The men asked, ";Where is your God today?";
And the empty eyes as the sisters prayed held
Their thoughts unspokenThere was nothing they could do
Earth was dust for miles around
Nothing new survived
Everything was barren on the land
And the truth they tried to understand just died
Everything was barren on the land
And the truth they tried to understand just died
We will be a melody so free
a fragrance on the cooling breeze
you to me such gentle poetry
and who would not love days like these
Hold for us the crystal and the stream
the velvet night our claim for this
we will see with every waking dream
love smiles and brings the sweetest kiss
And it's true reflections casting shadow to the light
so still, it seems that we are etched in smoke tonight
we will remember this
the sweetest kiss
Should our dreams drift by as time unfolds
between the sea and sky above
we will stay together we will hold
the peace and purity of love I see life and light it shines from you
a fragrance on the cooling breeze
we will see infinity come through
and who would not love days like these
And it's true, the music's flowing echoes in the light
quietly now we are sketched in the mist tonight
we will remember this, we will remember this
the sweetest kiss
We will be a melody so free
a fragrance on the cooling breeze
you to me such gentle poetry
and who would not love days like these
Came the day you strayed into my life
And everything was turned around
Since the day you came into my life
My world is full of sweeter sounds
And the day's you've loved me in my life
Have changed my every point of view
Since the day you came into my life
My time I love to share with you
And I know that all my friends said you're deceiving me
I know that you were capable of leaving me
And you could stray away
Some lonely day
These the days, the best of all my life
Will live inside my heart and mind
Should you stray, the rest of all my life
I'll keep the love you left behindThese the days, the love of all my life
I live with all the love you give
Should you stay, the rest of all my life
I'll love you for each day we live
And I know that all my friends said you're decieving me
And I know that you were capable of leaving me
And you may stray away
And you could stray away some lonely day
These the days the rest of all my life
I know I'll spend them loving you
If you stray, the best of all my life
Will leave me and will go with you
Sheherazade this day is yours
The bearers of your gifts now all around you stand
The finest silk made in the land
Is waiting for your choice
It shimmers at your hand
Sheherazade your life is one
You have today the sultan's love
The people watch you step into the sun
Stalls and bars of every kind
Food piled high on woven leaves for all to eat
Drums and flutes at every turn
The music winding, twisting through the crowded streets
Caravans from far away bring people laughing
People come to see the sultan in Baghdad today
Scheherazade her name is known
Her tale is told
The sultan let her life be spared
The festival begins this day
To celebrate her fame
The people sing her praise
Stories sung, the crowds are dancing
To the music and the entertainment all the voices sing
The people call to see the king
The sultan smiles
His story just begun
The sultan and Sheherazade are one
Scheherazade, Scheherazade
She told him tales of sultans and talismans and rings
A thousand and one nights she sang to entertain her king
She sings, Scheherazade, Sheherazade, Scheherazade, etc.
You lie in peaceful slumbers
But yet so proud
So safe the second city
Houses reach the skyline and
Far below the narrow streets that sing
With the movement of the crowd
No break from daily changes
As life goes on
Secure as French men can be
Fill your time with love and wine
And in your heart you'll know as long as you
There will always be a song
Then on a winter's day
With your face against the cold and rain
In the wind there's changes
The rivers rise
The water grips the town - tears fill her eyes
Chorus:I'm standing here which way to go
The crossroads call, but they don't know
Midnight, caught inside
I'm standing here, could all be lost
The crossroads call
You've stood so long
It weaves the strangest picture
Of silky thread
The shadows cast reflection
Lyons as the water's bed
Trees that stand look straight ahead
And search for a sight of distant land
This was a winter's day
In your heart you felt the cold and rain
Change the wind to silence
There's not a sound
Silver patterns run and dance
Upon the ground
Chorus
[Instrumental]
Through her eyes
See the sky
Bathed in colour
She's the light
There bound to lazy days
Here they would dream
Cast all their doubts away
Leaves upon a stream
So they would make a place
Love flowing free
Held in a summer smile
Strangers wild and sweet
Chorus:
Though she's flown, wild and free
Still behind his eyes she stays
There beneath his mind she lays
She is loveSmiles just a winter smile
Tries to hang on
Why even she can't say
What it is that's gone
Chorus
Still behind his eyes she stays
There beneath his mind she lays
She is love
Is it right that it should be this good
I'm feeling changes all the time
A special kind of beat I feel
Makes my pulse race, makes me reel
It spins me round and upside down, I feel the power
The turning of my life is measured by the hour
You make my day
Lucky is as lucky does
And thanks to you I fell in love
I tumble down not knowing what I came here for
It seemed my plans were always kept behind closed doors
You hold the key and unlocked me
Chorus 1:
Is it that it should be this good
I'm feeling changes all the time
Early morning calls me back
I wake in another world that others seem so hard to find
Make the most of what you have
Dancing time in rhythm pulls
You keep supplying energy
You're the body machine
They wish they could be like you
A perfect balance rarely seen
It's a dream
You've waited for so very long
I took the chance I made you strong
I grow with you, you saw in me potential fire
And when I thought the peak was reached, you took me higher
You held the key that unlocks me
Chorus 2:
Is it right it should be this good
I'm feeling changes all the time
Early morning calls me back
I wake in another world that others seem so hard to find
Make the most of what you have
Dancing time in rhythm pulls
You keep supplying energy
You're the body machine
They wish they could be like you
A perfect balance rarely seen
It's a dream
Chorus 3:
Is it fine it should be this good
I'm feeling changes all the time
Early morning calls me back
I wake in another world that others seem so hard to find
Make the most of what you have
Dancing time in rhythm pulls
You keep supplying energy
You're the body machine
They wish they could be like you
A perfect balance rarely seen
Repeat Chorus 2
Make the most of what you have
Dancing timel in rhythm pulls
You keep supplying energy
You're the body machine
They wish they could be like you
A perfect balance rarely seen
Is it right it should be this good
I'm feeling changes all the time ...
[Instrumental]
Shadows darkness, follows quiet shadows
You walk beside a shadow
Strangers, people passing constant strangers
You walk beside a stranger
Spare some love
Why won't you spare some love?
Share your love
Why don't you share your love?
Sadness finds the lonely silent sadness
Finds them hard with sadness
Seeking growing you will find with seeking
Knowing you are seeking
Spare some love
Why won't you spare some love?
Share your love
Why don't you share your love?Spare some love
Why won't you spare some love?
Share your love
Why don't you share your love?
Seasons, nature's pattern of the seasons
Changing with the seasons
Loving peace will come to all with loving
Living lives with loving
Spare some love
Why won't you spare some love?
Share your love
Why don't you share your love?
I made my dreams then lost them
They left and I went away
There's no romance in the memory
That's part of yesterday
But feelings linger stronger sometimes
So hard to disappear
When what holds you is a treasure
You've stored throughout the years
Finding out the hard way
The captive heart has lost and won a thousand lovers
That place each moment close to living in each other
Reaching out for treasures
Scattered in their dreams
Trying takes a life of loving so it seems
So carry on don't stop your feelings
Try and make them flow
Somewhere there's a vision waiting
You'll find it when you know
Taking the final curtain
That's coming down on you
Leaving the play of fools
Move onto life you knew
Fiding out the hard wayNo easy path to conquer
Trying to compromise
Climbing through my anguish
I see your fading eyes
The captive heart has lost and won a thousand lovers
That place each moment close to living in each other
Reaching out for treasures
Scattered in their dreams
Loving takes a life of trying so it seems
Adam lay ybounden, bound like a bond
Four thousand winters, thought he not too long
Adam lay ybounden, bound like a bond
Four thousand winters, thought he not too long
Adam lay ybounden, bound like a bond
Four thousand winters, thought he not too long

I always knew we were meant to be lovers
I always knew we were made for each other
I always knew there was no one else could make me feel this way
But when you go away
Chorus:
The angels cry
Each time we say goodbye
The angels cry
Each time we say goodbye
The summer sun always shines when you're with me
I feel its warmth in the love that you give me
I feel your touch and I know that's where I always want to stay
But when you go away
Chorus
When we're apart
The rain it falls
The wind it calls
For you my love
Right from the start
When our love was young
The rising sun
The only one was you my love
I always knew we were meant to be lovers
I always knew we were made for each other
I always knew there was no one else could make me feel this way
But when you go away
Repeat chorus three times
We were enchanged love would last for always
Taken for granted, them came the changes, unforseen
I'm so in love with you who seem so blas¨¦
The problem now is, do you still want to stay with me?
You so blas¨¦, unconcerned, you're indifferent
You turn, inattentive in company
Should I ask you, don't leave me?
We were enchanted wrapped up in our one dream
Taken for granted, in crept the silence unforseenYou seem OK though I burn stony silence
You turn, disinclined impassively
Can I keep you near to me?
Surely he can't really be so blas¨¦
Surely we will laugh another day
Surely we can hold it all together
Surely we will find another way
You seem OK though I burn stony silence
You turn, disinclined impassively
Can I keep you near to me?
Surely he can't really be so blas¨¦
Surely we will find another way
Surely we can hold it all together
Surely we will find another way
Surely he can't use my love forever
Surely he can love me like before
Surely we can hold it all together
Was it just illusion that we saw
Surely he can't really be so blas¨¦
Surely we will find another way
Surely we can hold it all together
Surely we will find another way
Skaila - playing stardust - in the moonlight
Turning into music - colouring the daybreak
Following the morning - Skaila she plays on ...
Skaila she takes the shadow - into the distance
On reflecting rainbows, silhouettes of sunshine
Skaila she plays on
Skaila plays on spirals - circles turning
Falling into rivers - melodies are streaming
Playing all around us - Skaila she plays on
Skaila she takes the sunshine - into the darkness
Where she finds the music - scattered in the right time
Skaila she plays on
Skaila plays on mirrors - stretching over
Tumbles into voices - echoing the music
Everyone is dreaming - Skaila she plays on
We were enchanged love would last for always
Taken for granted, them came the changes, unforseen
I'm so in love with you who seem so blasé
The problem now is, do you still want to stay with me?
You so blasé, unconcerned, you're indifferent
You turn, inattentive in company
Should I ask you, don't leave me?
We were enchanted wrapped up in our one dream
Taken for granted, in crept the silence unforseen
You seem OK though I burn stony silence
You turn, disinclined impassively
Can I keep you near to me?
Surely he can't really be so blasé
Surely we will laugh another day
Surely we can hold it all together

Surely we can hold it all together
Was it just illusion that we saw
Surely he can't really be so blasé
Surely we will find another way
Surely we can hold it all together
Surely we will find another way
Pictures in the fire
Reflections of myself
Take a look in the mirror
What do I see
A portrait of me
Chorus:
And the smoke curls up the chimney
Sending messages of love
But you're so far away
So far away
This cold wintry evening
I curl up by the fire
I wonder what you're doing
I know we agreed
To part for a while
ChorusSo here I am alone again
Pretending that you're with me
I can't so no/she can't say no
And I can't let go/and she can't let go
I thought he'd never leave me
Turning round I see you
I know it's tonight
It's just my heart deceiving
A trick of the light
And the smoke curls up the chimney
Sending messages of love
If only you were with me
Oooh oooh oooh oooh
Oooh oooh oooh oooh / oooh oooh oooh
Oooh oooh with me
And I can't say no ... she can't say no
And I can't let go ... and she can't let go
Pretending that you're with me
So here I am alone again
Thought you'd never leave me
All at once we turned our heads
To find each other looking in a different way
Laughter rang and people sang
But up above as night time fell
You ran away
So what do I do now
Secret mission seemed so strange somehow
It happened once it happened twice
I understood and took your love in anyway
Leaving in a new direction
Casual glances, take in every word you say
So special can't be told
Secret missions have you in their hold
Chorus:Leaving for Rio, ships that pass in the night
Spent a long day together once
Your career at its height
It's so hard to miss you
When I don't even know your name
Never the same
Changes every day
I've heard them say that you're the best
You're never caught and can't be found
And that's the test
I understand just what they mean
I've turned around to see you vanish
Like a dream
Stood on a tightrope for so long
Secret meetings must go wrong
Chorus
If I were made of music
This is what I'd be
I'd be a symphony for life
You'd never finish me
Opening each day with a new song
A note would never be wrong
Chorus:
It's a perfect scale
You've reached for all the time
Has become my meaning
Since you became mine
Held by your chord
Now I have found
My freedom through your voice
Realising no boundsWrite me with your fingers
Caress me with your sound
Life inside your rhythm
Has made my love a round
Closer to the harmony that lies within
Waiting for the season
Chorus
'Cause it's a perfect scale
You've reached for all the time
It's become my meaning
Since you became mine
Sounds around me, thoughts before me call to you
Sky above me, water near me reflect you
Dreams of our oneness altered by time
Seasons will change for us all
For us all
Chorus I:
Springtime, summer, winter, fall
Springtime, summer, winter, fall with you
Magic grace bestows the place I long to be
Deep inside my heart is high, so come to me
Thinking and rethinking in moments of despair
Worries not needed will fade - with you
Always
Chorus I
Chorus II:
Springtime, summer, winter, fall ... seasons will change for us all
Springtime, summer, winter, fall ... seasons will change for us all
With you
Repeat Chorus II two times
Once I saw you leather and lace
Andy Warhol fixing some face
Your rock 'n' roll dreams
Were slowly going nowhere it seemed
Chasing rainbows, vagabond kings
Always want impossible things
You make up some time
I find out constantly on my mind
Chorus:
Quicksilver streams of light, shine in the darkest night
You leave my doubt in shadows, you cast a spell I can't help believing
Standing beside me, I feel you breathing near
But now you're far ahead, are you leaving
Will you still find me here?
You're still constant, future and past
Quick as silver every move fast
You're everything still
You move amongh moments at will
You hold such love, fragments of time
Lonely dreams so share them with mine
You're making me spin
I turn and find quicksilver within
Chorus
Reach out, touch me, let it be me
In your heart and your mind
And in all space and time
Reach out, touch me
And I'll set you free
Chorus
Repeat last four lines of chorus two times
I have her letters
Perfume lingers on every page
Tied with ribbons
Kept with lavender and her lace
The letters are faded
Kept by her side for all her days
And the ribbons
Once held her hair on a younger day
He wrote of the warm spring days
And how tall the grass grew
He wrote of the poppy fields
He said, ";tell the children I love them--remember"; There was a poppy
Kept in a frame
By his photograph
The years were so long
They were strong and we must be too
He wrote of the open air
And how brave his friends were
He wrote of the poppy fields
He said, ";tell the children of Flanders--remember";
Remember
Sung to sleep
by a distant lullaby
filtered through raindrops and leaves.
Suddenly he's aware, this is no dream
is this real
what's happening
for some nights now
I thought he lived in my dreams
but I hear him somewhere outside
Chorus:
Tempted and bewildered
standing spellbound
all the crazy questions
circling around
from my secret place
somewhere in these magic trees
I can see his spirit clearlyIn the midst
of a thrash of rainy boughs
still the song rides on the wind
such a luminous sound.
He tried to trace
but it seems to come from all directions
hidden miracles
dancing just beyond our grasp
will they ever be revealed
Tempted and bewildered
standing spellbound
all the crazy questions
circling around
Chorus
Laying down beside a pool
staring down inside
I was taken to a place
somewhere new to hide
at first the scene was strange and blue
then
ghostly voices that I knew
a bed, a voice, a woman cried
a child a boy, a light inside
this my dream for all those years
turned into my deepest fears
despite the love I longed for
I fell into a pool of tears
Chorus:
Water swirling round my head
falling through my eyes
I see the woman on the bed
calling deep inside
calling out what might have been
all those moments never seen
all the grief flowed down the years
to a pool of tearsAll those people didn't see
nothing else to do
empty space around me
no one ever knew
the ground beneath my feet fell through
then
music echoed thoughts of you
the chance you took to steal my pride
the pain, the joy the love that died
this my dream for all those years
turned into my deepest fears
despited the love I longed for
I fell into a pool of tears
Repeat chorus two times
We're lost and and alone and we're drifting forever
Don't know where we are and we'll never no, never
Go home to our earth, far away just a dot on the screen
Never seen, but she's never forgotten
Forgotten ... forgotten
Born to be born on the wings of creation
We were the first now we're tenth generation
Our guidance control lies aloof and dismembered
Our ship has forgotten but we have remembered
Remembered ... remembered
Mountains and forests bright, shining streams
A place where man was always meant to be
Oh how we miss you, we're reaching out
We're reaching out, we're reaching out
We're reaching out ... reaching out
For you ... for you
(Vocalise)
(Vocalise)
Sitting here alone my thoughts of you
I hold your photograph
It's simple black and white
You wear that smile that won my heart
The time we had was short
You had somewhere else to go
The drafty waiting room
The train pulls in, you go
Chorus:
You ask me if it hurts when I think of you
It's only when I laugh
Time heals now I am cried out
A brief encounter deep in France
A table set for two
Hands held, I melt into you
I wrote some letters to old friends
The good old days
I didn't know you then
To mention you to them would be absurd
But then you mean so muchIce that's on my window panes
Slowly starts to thaw
The image of my tears reflects on you
That's all
Chorus
My days will pass as years
Till you return to me
The reason that it hurts when I think of you
It's only when I laugh
Time heals and now I am cried out
A brief encounter deep in France
A table set for two
Hands held, I melt into you
Repeat chorus twice
All of the wind
Floating in time
Dust into life,
Sun stream flowing wide
Adrift in the void
Splintering still,
Great cosmic star
In the cell of dark
Chasing bits of joy
Ghost in through the void
Clouds go whirling by
Hear the cosmic sign
Under glowing moons
Solar afternoons
Fate and love go by
Shooting stars of timeSkeleton soul
Stretching in space
Echoes of night
and shadows of light
Those brittle stars
In orbits of dust
Fragments of sun
From having been one
Fading mist you swirl and dance before my eyes
To realise
The feelings that have lain within my heart
Life in dreams is so much kinder
Just a moment's memory
To fade away, in distance lies your home
Broken city, take you with me
Soon to be harmonised
There before your eyes
Only to exist
Time has held tomorrow yearning while apart
Now the longing has begun for youSuns will never set
And shall not forget
Promises we made
Somewhere there's a harbour
Though we pass her by
Where our ship can be and safely lie
In the warmth of her arms
Inside a perfect day
And with each passing moment
We wait to sail away
I thought love so gentle so pure
I knew love so sweet and so secure
Turning with an open heart
With a touch we would never be apart
Flames of love now ash just drifts away
Here I am I'm lost and love's astray
I can never love again
For love lied and it died in the end
If I knew then what I know now
If I had known it all somehow
Always believing
Love deceiving
I could have held my shattered dream
Seen all the things I should have seen
Now I know love lies
Now I know love is bound to die
So much love now gone just slipped away
So much pain to see that love betrays
I will never love again
For love lies and it will die in the endI thought I saw love in his eyes
But now I know that love just lies
Leaving me hollow
Nothing to follow
So I will never give me heart
And I will always stand apart
Now I know love lies
Now I know love is bound to die
And love was nothing but a need
Devoured by an empty greed
The ashes fill my empty heart
I will always stand apart
This from love's beguiling mask
The kiss the questions never asked
And now I know that love just lies
I know love is bound to die
Love lies love dies
Love lies love dies
Love lies love dies
Love lies love dies
Love lies love dies
Love lies love dies
Love lies love dies
Love lies love dies
Love lies love dies
We all are standing unafraid on the frontier
We all are shadows in the shade on the frontier
When the dawn is come we will stand strong
Where we belong
The day belongs to each of us our time is getting near
The way is wrong for each of us our time is getting near
The seeds of yesterday are breaking through
To you
We're on the frontier now
We're on the frontier now
We're on the frontier now
We're on the frontier now
We're on the frontier now
So come on leave the dark behind and join the day now
It's peaceful revolution time to join the day now
Morning breaks the light will shine and find the blind
We all are standing unafraid on the frontier
We all are shadows in the shade on the frontier
Break the ice you can help me understand
Take the night into your own hands
Burn the flame ignite the love we used to know
Learn to change we've got to let the past go
Start to heal cause we don't have to fall
Hearts that feel can have it all
Chorus:
Take one step closer let love start over
Shoot one more arrow through my heart
We'll come back stronger and hold on longer
Shoot one more arrow through my heart
Unashamed it can't be wrong to try again
No one's to blame but just a quiet end
Smile for me cause heaven's not so far away
I'll believe that this is where you should stay
Start to heal cause we don't have to part
Hearts that feel can have it allChorus
Start to heal cause we don't have to part
Hearts that feel can have it all
Repeat chorus two times
I saw you on the screen
You stole my heart
The moment spellbound me
You played your part
I was breathless as you spoke to me
I rehearse my lines tonight
For you're my
Chorus:
One love you are my one love
Gone love over my head goes my heart
One love you are my one love
Gone love over my head goes my heart
Falling for you
You take me in your arms
Your eyes meet mine
I live each tender kiss
A million times
You're no ordinary fantasy
All my hopes will come alive
For you're myChorus
Falling for you
You swept in and touched my soul
Will you ever know
Unreal though it seems
I love you so
Repeat chorus two times
One love
[Instrumental]
Oh, Mr. Pine doesn't wait till after nine
There's not a friend he's had to buy
Keeps his head above the sky
Ain't got much, and he don't ask why
Oh, Mr. Pine spends his summers drinking wine
Has a friend called Gypsy Joe
Wears an earring through his nose
Takes it everywhere he goesMaybe I don't want to know
Maybe I don't want to go
Where the sun shines up the mountain
Drinking wine
I won't wait till after nine
Oh, Mr. Pine doesn't wait till after nine
Doesn't pass the time the day
In the graveyard with his yesterday
Looks at it once, and he didn't stay
My love is the ocean, seas of seeing
My love is living and being
My love is the wind all cast through
My love is real and you
Love is all, love is one, love is one
My love is the sky and the air
My love is around everywhere
My love is the earth and eternity
My love is forever and freeLove is all, love is one, love is one
My love is the way and the song
My love is all and is one
My love is below and above
And everywhere love is love
Love is all, love is one, love is one
There was a boy
A very strange enchanted boy
They say he wandered very far
Very far
Over land and sea
A little shy
And sad of eye
But very wise
Very wise was he
Chorus:
Then one day
A magic day he passed my way
And while he spoke of many things
Fools and kings
This he said to me
The greatest thing
You'll ever learn
Is to love
And be loved in return
(Scat)
Chorus
(Scat)
Destination outward bound
I turn to see the northern lights behind the wing
Horizons seem to beckon me
Learned how to cry too young, so now I live to sing
The northern lights are in my mind
They guide me back to you
Horizons seem to beckon me
Learned how to cry too young, so now I live to sing
You know it's hard away from you
Travelling roads and passing through
It's not for money and it's not for fame
I just can't explain, sometimes it's lonely
Marking the space between the days
Early hours pass away
I sing to you of northern lights
I sing for you of northern nights
Past or future, here or there
Shelter comes in words from you, so talk to me
I hear your voice, it comforts me
In morning dreams I take your hand, you walk with me
The northern lights are in my mind
They guide me back to you
Peace enfolds the still night air
Home again I look for you and find you there Desintation homeward now
Take the easy way, bring me down
Making the hard way now I see
Hard to be really free, I'm missing you near me
Marking the space between the days
Early hours pass away
I sing to you of northern lights
I sing for you of northern nights
Chorus:
The northern lights are in my mind
They guide me back to you
The northern nights are in my eyes
They guide me back to you
Repeat chorus twice
The northern lights are in my mind
They guide me back to you
Love - may you be blessed
Live in the warmth of your caress
And, as you go on
May you be, never less than you can be
Love - may you hold strong
Stay, all the way where you belong
Then, as time goes by
May you be, the sweet song, you sing today
Love - may you be blessed
Every day
Every way ...

I'll take from the blind and I'll get up ahead
I'll sneak up behind and I'll steal
I'll take all that you have

I'll break you and I'll make you sweat

Chorus

Somewhere I had seen you
Just a face within a crowd
Softly touch my shoulder
Maybe you can tell me why
I hear your voice
In the wind while I'm sleeping
In my dreams I can see you
You're smiling at me
You, (I love you Luminai) you colour all my darkest nights
And keep my spirits dancing (I love your Luminai)
Until the morning
When, (I love you Luminai) I hold your face inside my hands
My fingers start to tremble (I love you Luminai)
As I try to kiss you
You have such a strange name
From some far off distant place
Can you stay forever
Always be inside my space
I feel you move
In the wind while I'm sleeping
In my dreams I can feel you
Your're laughing with me
You, (I love you Luminai) you colour all my darkest nights
And keep my spirits dancing (I love you Luminai)
Until the morning
You, (I love you Luminai) you take me to a higher plane
And open up my senses (I love you Luminai)
To love never ending
I feel your hand
On my heart while I'm sleeping
In my dreams I can touch you
You're holding me tight
You, (I love you Luminai) you colour all my darkest nights
And keep my spirits dancing (I love you Luminai)
Until the morning
Now, (I love you Luminai) we'll never be alone again
You'll stay with me forever
My love, Luminai
He stood with bow in hand as the curtain rose
Thunderous applause
It was a day that she would remember
Eyes staring straight ahead as the music flowed
From his fine thin hands
Lady from Tuscany captivated
Satisfied all his needs
Fed him with desire, held him like a child
Closer than anyone
Legend surrounds him
Fire, obsession
He had a taste for life like no other man
Overwhelming man Leader in time with public approval
Then as his gift took over his torture grew
Lady slipped away
Waits in his shadow watching changes
He doesn't notice her
Flirting with another, wishing for him
She travels far away
Legend surrounds him
Lady, his passion
Beauty followed her to a friendly field
She floats there with no cares
Mistress of the night in her precious room
She longs for her loved one
Satisfied all his needs
Fed him with desire held him like a child
Closer than anyone
Legend surrounds her
Water no fire
Lady like no other
Mad man adored her
Legend surrounds her
Water no fire
Lady like no other
Mad man adored her

Taking love the only way
It's got to just flow
Making love and taking time to let it grow
Finding ways to find the real you
Spending days just holding hands and feeling free
Play around, watch the sunshine coming through
Come around, stay around, watch the loving grow with you
Chorus
Loving you the love you give me
Living loving with the things we have to share
Poetry, hear the words you say to me
Stay with me, here with me, keep our loving flowing free
Thunder
As walls fall down around them now
They cry alone because inside they know
If the full moon comes around
Again -
It will be
A gift from God, they're still alive
Haunting echoes of a baby's sigh
Gone in a heartbeat
Searching for a hiding place
Each one has a telling face
Lily's in the field
On the wings of a dove
Hush now
In their quiet dark blue night
They dream
They run
Like the wind on a wild bird's wing
So innocent and free
Lily's in the field
On the wings of a dove
Faith
Love
Lily's in the field
Dancing in the sunshine with the breeze
One life
One hope
One love
Lily's in the field
Faith
Love
Lily's in the field
One life
One hope
One love
Across the rainbow bridgeLily's in the field
Faith
Love
Lily's in the field
Faith
Love
Lily's in the field
Faith
Love
Hush now
They dream
Of the wind on a wild bird's wing
They smile
When they hear the angels sing
You've been alone for too long baby
You're so afraid to let emotions show
Oh but baby I'm in no kind of hurry
So we can take it real slow
Honey don't let that lover who hurt you
Spoil the chance of starting anew
Chorus:
Someone's gotta love you baby
Let it be me oh let it be me
Someone's gotta sooner or later
Let it be me
You say you're happy this way baby
Do you cry a little when the crowd has gone
You think promises were made to be broken
I want to prove that you're wrong
Honey for once bring down your defences
Let me be the one to break through
Chorus
Honey don't let that lover who hurt you
Spoil the chance of starting anew
Repeat chorus two timesBaby let me love you
Baby let me love you
Chorus
Baby let me love you
Baby let me love you
Chorus
Baby let me love you
Baby let me love you
Someone's gotta sooner or later
There is an island
Where it should never be
Surrounded by suburban sea
And through the tired and hopeless waves
To where it's free
I want to be there
For the rest of my time
There on the island
The sun is always bright
The moon sends the darkness away in the night
I know that it's waiting
I know there's a place ready for meI want to be there
For the rest of my time
Warm sounds of windsongs
Come down through the trees
But far away tears are borne on the breeze
I'll follow the raindrops
Cause sunshine and smiles are waiting for me
I want to be there
For the rest of my time
The lonely street eclipsed the sun
Until the sculptor had begun
To etch and mold a dream
Which soon became a passing game
A sad forgotten scene
A face of yesterday
The builder laid his base of sand
And stretched his willing gentle hand
To seek the help, to shape the life
He had depended on
Which fell like rain and snow
A face of yesterdayThe man of music wrote a score
For several instruments or more
When they played together
Then they found disharmony
A cluttered symphony
A face of yesterday
When I knew nothing most things seemed very clear
There was a way to take to get too far or near
But now the road is rougher
And life is getting tough
I've had enough, enough of
Chorus:
Jigsaws, all that I ever see
Unsure where I want to be
See-saw, you standing next to me
The edges of my days are all astray
Friend can I take a few of your decisions now
I can not stay this way so I'll make a change somehow
And now the time is later
I don't think I should wait
I must escape, escape fromChorus
Jigsaw
The way is shattered at your feet it touches you
See-saw
You're upside down, it clutches you, it touches you
Jigsaw
Jigsaw
Jigsaw
Here in the center of an endless hazy maze
I know I lost the way and I don't know nights from days
And now there's no solution
I know that I can't use all the confusion, all the
Chorus
Each day brings me closer home to you
The place I long to see
Horizons lost regained
Always stay the same
In my mind never change for me - Kalynda
I need to feel the warmth of open skies
To lay beneath the sun
And watch the love birds fly
Clouds can fill my eyes
But still I see you reach for me - Kalynda
Chorus:I have held you close to all the times
You've stayed inside my soul
When I am half I think of you
And life becomes a whole
Lazy shores are more to me
Than shifting sand and sea
You're my all, my refuge, where I must be
To rest in peace awhile - I hold Kalynda
Gentle wind that plays upon my face
Caress the evening dream
And watch the twilight fade
Into waking scenes
This I'll always share with you - Kalynda
Chorus
I love you like a stream
flows restless to the sea
see you like the mist
touches clouds, touches me
See you in the stars
whereever you may be
I think of you
think of you
If ever you're near
and have some time to spend
I love you every way
love you like a friend
And then when you leave
a whisper in my mind
I think of you
think of you
When I see a bird
fly over to the sea
and the sun in the sky
is shining warm and free
And when I feel the wind
blow cool over me
I think of you
think of you
Ich liebe dich wie einen Strom
der rastlos ins Meer fließt
sehe dich wie den Nebel
der die Wolken und mich berührt
Seh dich in den Sternen
woimmer du sein magst
ich denk an dich
denk an dich
Wann immer du nah bist
und Zeit hast für mich
ich lieb dich auf jegliche Art
liebe dich wie einen Freund
Und dann, wenn du gehst
und in meinen Gedanken flüsterst
denk ich an dich
denk ich an dich
Wann immer ich einen Vogel seh
der hinüber fliegt zum Meer
und die Sonnne am Himmel
scheint warm und frei
Und wann immer ich den Wind spür
der kühl über mir bläst
denk ich an dich
denk ich an dich
If you want the reasons
For the changing of the seasons
And you want to know why
Blue is the colour of the sky
Then you've missed the point completely
And a little child smiles sweetly
Cause he hasn't had the time
To learn to ask the question why
If I could show you the sky...
If I could show you why...
If I could show you...
If I could show you...The years pass by unnoticed
And I have no need to protest
And I know you feel the same way
Even though you never have to speak
The pain of joy is equal
To the joy of pain the sequel
Is as sure as the minutes
The hours and the days of every week
But sometimes when the clouds obscure the sun
I wonder why my day
Is as narrow as the road
That winds upon its way
In the bleak midwinter
Frosty wind made moan
Earth stood hard as iron
Water like a stone
Snow had fallen snow on snow
Snow on snow
In the bleak midwinter
So long ago
What I give him
Poor as I am
If I were a shepherd
I would bring a lamb
If I were a wise man
I would do my part
Yet what can I give him
Give my heartIn the bleak midwinter
Frosty wind made moan
Earth stood hard as iron
Water like a stone
Snow had fallen snow snow
Snow on snow
In the bleak midwinter
So long ago
If my loving you
could change the river's flow
I would not let you drift away from me
I'd never let go
I want to be by your side
but the water's too deep and wide
Chorus:
In another life
In another place
I have held you close
I have known your grace
in another world
in another time
you'll be mine
you'll be mineIf I touched you now
I'd only lose my mind
in a cruel world we live in
one life at a time
I don't know where or when
but we'll pass this way again
Repeat chorus two times
If I loved you, time and again
I would try to say all I'd want you to know
If I loved you, words wouldn't come
In an easy way, round in circles I'd go
Chorus:
Longing to tell you but afraid and shy
I'd let my golden chances pass me by
Soon you'd leave me
Off you would go in the mist of day
Never, never to know
How I love you, if I loved you
Repeat chorus
I light this candle
with a wish
that I may travel on
to a higher place
I light this candle
at the time
of passing through a stage
let go and I move on
into the golden age
Chorus:
All my love
will melt the stone
held in a friendly hand
across the mountains
to the sea
the wind will kiss the sandI light this candle
for my love
who hardly says a word
he looks with telling eyes
on the wings of snow white birds
I light this candle
with a thought
of how my life has grown
friends who gave hope and love
when I was far from home
Chorus
Dawn light brings a tropic day above the trees
Old man gazing to the hills awaits
Proud boy, lion hearted, comes a hundred miles
Follow the sun, soon you'll be welcomed home
Chorus:
Hunioco
They sing througout the land
The boy becomes a man
Now he may take his fathers hand
Repeat chorus
Drums call, village voices ring around the shore
Rain falls as they cast their nets to sea
Young girls singing songs to bring the boy's return
Look for the sun soon to be welcomed home
Repeat chorus two times(African)
Night falls as the people gather round the fire
Young men in their festive roles will dance
Echoes from the hills repeat their loud rejoice
Follow the sun now he is welcome home
Chorus
(African Chorus)
Chorus
(African)
Going home, going home
I'm just going home
Quiet light, some still day
I'm just going home
It's not far, just close by
Through an open door
Work all done, care laid by
Going to fear no more
Mother's there expecting me
Father's waiting, too
Lots of folk gathered there
All the friends I knew
All the friends I knew
I'm going homeNothing's lost, all's gain
No more fret nor pain
No more stumbling on the way
No more longing for the day
Going to roam no more
Morning star lights the way
Restless dream all done
Shadows gone, break of day
Real life begun
There's no break, there's no end
Just a living on
Wide awake with a smile
Going on and on
Going home, going home
I'm just going home
It's not far, just close by
Through an open door
I am going home
I'm just going home
Going home, going home
(Repeat)
It's awfully bad luck on Diana
Her ponies have swallowed their bits
She fished down their throats with a spanner
And frightened them all into fits
So now she's attempting to borrow
Do lend her some bits Mummy do
I'll lend her my own for tomorrow
But today I'll be wanting them too
Just look at Prunella on Guzzle
The wizardest pony on earth
Why doesn't she slacken his muzzle
And tighten the breech in his girth
I say Mummy there's Mrs. Geyser
And doesn't she look pretty sick
I bet it's because Mona Lisa
Was hit on the hock with a brickMiss Blewitt says Monica threw it
But Monica says it was Joan
And Joan's very thick with Miss Blewitt
So Monica's sulking alone
And Margaret failed in her paces
Her withers got tied in a noose
So her coronets caught in the traces
And now all her fetlocks are loose
Oh it's me now I'm terribly nervous
I wonder if Smudges will shy
She's practically certain to swerve us
Her Pelham is over one eye
Oh wasn't it naughty of Smudges
Oh Mummy I'm sick with disgust
She threw me in front of the judges
And my silly old collarbone's bust

What lies beneath the Rowan tree
Magic dust that I may breathe
Starlit night, the mist entwines my fear
A faerie ring untouched by time
Secrets of the inner mind
Come to life before my very eyes
Once like a child I knew fear
";Don't turn the light out, I'm afraid of the dark!";
Chorus:
Faeries living at the bottom of the garden
Faeries living at the bottom of the garden
Someone's calling, I am falling--falling, falling ...
Just before the dawn I wake
My heart is cold but it's too late
There is someone out there calling me
So I leave my bed, climb down the stairs
Out the door, the still night air
See beneath the tree--it is me
Once like a child I knew fear
";Don't turn the light out, I'm afraid of the dark!Chorus
";Don't turn the light out, I'm afraid of the dark!
Repeat chorus three times
Someone's calling, can't stop falling ...
Imagine a new world
Unseen and without form
And this our day, a new dawn
Some people are lonely
Some people are so sad
Reach out and give what you have
Chorus:
Friends are always there
In good and bad times
Always taking care, you're in my mind
And I'll try hard to take my share
Call and you know I will be there
From the start right to the end
Time for old friends If ever we're parted
I'll think of you with me
My smile, the one you give me
Imagine this new world
Friends full of sharing
A new world filled with caring
Repeat chorus and second half of chorus
We'll take a few days off in paradise
You and I
We'll fall in love again
Under a perfect sky
Late in the evening watching nightbirds fly
Moonlight dancing in their eyes
We'll swim the ocean 'til it's late at night
You and I
Make love and sing all night
Until the day arrives
Late in the evening under a tropic sky
Stars shine inside loving eyes
Chorus:We're diving for pearls
We're diving so deep
The ocean's calling
And the dolphins speak
We're diving for pearls
Under the blue sea
They rise from the seabed
And follow me
We came a long way to this wonderland
You and I
To love again once more
Under magic skies
Late in the evening when the world's asleep
Remembering how great it could be
Repeat chorus two times
Falling around me lay, parts of my life
I'm leaving them all behind
We leave with the night
Living in strange ways
Has cast me aside
I cry in another world now
I must search for all my days gone by
Chorus:
Dreamer lead me ever closer
Here is where I belong
Inside my own existance
I have been for so long
Voices that call to me, lay silent to hide
Soon I will hold them close
With words from my eyes
Living in hope of you
Loving you now
You are my waking thoughts
I lay with you in my sleeping hoursChorus
I stand and gaze upon your smile
A deep reflection
Held in my soul as a child
To grow within the warmth of love
Long forgotten
Tears flood your eyes in a moment
Dreamer, I become as one within you
To lose you far away
I stay inside your heaven now
No longer lonely
Once more I'm safe in your arms
To feel your touch
Across my mind
Fills me only full of desire for my being
Dreamer, really all that needs a meaning
To feel us sail away
Chorus
As morning leaves the night
Opening my eyes
I feel that you are close to me
And yet your heart is time away
But I can't hold a dream
That sleeps within my yesterdays
And so coming very close now
I see my destiny
Is to make you part of me
And to hope that you might be
Pure and free
Chorus:
Leave memories on the wind
To spend moments in endless flight
Held over by all you mean
I feel you nearer the darkest night
Closer now, than yesterdayHoping for a chance
To find you loving me
In the distance searching there I'll be
In time you may come to me
To fall into the world
That once we left so far behind
To learn with each passing moment
As tomorrow comes for me
In the shadow of my life
For eternity to find
The light I see
Chorus
Why do we love so carelessly
A broken heart can never feel the same
Why do we make everything so hollow, and then borrow
Someone's love, selfishly
Why do we take the easy way
No looking back, you never see the pain
Why do we hurt, people who we care for, and would bear for
If we thought, with understanding and with caring in our hearts
If we could see, if only we could see
All the love we lost - carelessly
Why do we take and not return
No going back, you never meet again
Why do we think, always of our selfish need and go with greed
When if we knew with certainty and caring in our hearts
If we could see, if only we could see, all the love we lost
All the love we lost - carelessly
Morning people take the news
A paper window on a world
They live on undisturbed
Thoughts may fly like the lonely birds
And lost behind the silent words
Voices are unheard
Put it down to city life
Oh if I understood
Passing by so easily
I'd reach you if I could
Can you hear me
Can you hear me
Fly like a song, fly while you're singing
A song without you, is a bird without winging
Some city flights leave in the morning
Some city nights end without warning
Can you hear me call
Evening people see the day
A silhouette on every face
A shadow on their eyes
I take my place within the crowd
We walk the dusty streets around
Encompassing our lives
Put it down to city times
Oh if I understood
Passing by so casually
I'd reach you if I could
Can you hear me
Can you hear me
Fly like a song, fly while you're singing
A song without you, is a bird without winging
Some city flights leave in the morning
Some city nights end without warning
Can you hear me call
Can you hear me call
Can you hear me call
Instrumental Calling to the sky
The thunder drowns my voice within the rain
And I know you're near me
And I call throughout the storm
I know that you don't hear me
I call your name
I call your name
I call your name
Can you hear me call your name
Can you hear me call
Hear me call your name
I call your name
I call your name
Can you hear me call your name
Instrumental
Night time people find it hard
To hear themselves above the noise
The music holds its own
I recognised a place I'd known
I turned to find it carved in stone
A mirrored smile alone
Put it down to city nights
Oh if I understood
Passing by so far from me
I'd reach you if I could
Can you hear me
Can you hear me
Fly like a song, fly while you're singing
A song without you, is a bird without winging
Some city flights leave in the morning
Some city nights end without warning
Can you hear me call
Can you hear me call
Can you hear me call
Why must I wait for the morning sun to rise
that maybe then I can rest my eyes
so I won't think of you and our used-to-be's
cause I can't turn the night
no I can't turn the night
oh, I can't turn the night off
I watch the ceiling dance thru my midnight eyes
a screen on which I fantasize
all of our yesterdays and our used-to-be's
oh, I can't turn the night
no I can't turn the night
oh, I can't turn the night off If only you and I were together now
we'd make it somehow
we were so young before; we didn't realize
you can't take back the goodbyes
And so I wait for the morning sun to rise
that maybe then I can close my eyes
so I won't look at you and our used-to-be's
and I can't turn the night
no, I can't turn the night
oh, I can't turn the night off
Come along with me
Down into the world of seeing
Come and you'll be free
Take the time to find the feeling
See everything on it's own
And you'll find you know the way
And you'll know the things you're shown
Owe everything to the day
Chorus:
See the carpet of the sun
The green grass soft and sweet
Sands upon the shores of time
Of oceans mountains deep
Part of the world that you live in
You are the part that you're givingCome into the day
Feel the sunshine warmth around you
Sounds from far away
Music of the love that found you
The seed that you plant today
Tomorrow will be a tree
And living goes on this way
It's all part of you and me
Repeat chorus two times
See the carpet of the sun
See the carpet of the sun
See the carpet of the sun
See the carpet of the sun
Oh Celestine you keep the candle burning
Oh Celestine so tiny dressed in blue
It's there to see
It's meant to be
You said to me
Oh Celestine
When I came to you
My mind was going nowhere
Within my dreams until you
Breathed life back into me
Oh Celestine the brightest star is your star
Oh Celestine you're shining down upon me
I must have faith
I must believe
You said to meYou gave me the key
New beginnings call to me
And take me where I'm meant
To sing my way across the sea
Oh Celestine you keep my fire burning
Oh Celestine my guiding light forever
It's there to see
It's meant to be
You said to me
Oh Celestine the brightest star is your star
Oh Celestine you're shining down upon me
I must have faith
I must believe
You said to me
Celestine
Ave, ave verum Corpus De Maria Virgine
Vere passum, immolatum in cruce pro homine
Cuius latus perforatum
Fluxit aqua et sanguine
Esto nobis praegustatum
Mortis in examine
Hey Lady Sodom Ramanah
Black mamba bamboo business
on a red sun night
All over cry forgiveness
for the last gunfight
So cool in your compensation
that you keep next to your skin
Cold sudden shock reminder
that you can't come in
Changing from pain to pleasure
is an easy ride
Sweating under the sunfire
till you cried and died
Till you cried and died
Warm sun shining through seagulls wings
Makes mottled patterns upon the sea
Transparent veins in feathered flight
Bound for infinity
I am near you your freedom flight
Your ruffled waters they gleam
Solid coast of grayness
A salty glistening sheen
Ba da da
Ba da da ...
And you will follow the wind forever
And glide the breezes bright stream
One dream bringing the sun splashed
A crystal waters dream
Every drop of water
descending like a pearl
lays upon the silken skin
of this perfect girl
The breeze around her body
moved upwards to her face
it held on like a baby
that found its resting place
Voices from the night before
cannot be denied
suddenly revealing
all the pain inside
Entering a well of thoughts
all her fears subside
all the bad things turning to
a blessing in disguise She was the faintest flower
washed in by the tide
sending silent messages
to the world outside
Her face began to soften
her lips took on a smile
the people who had loved her
came rushing to her side
Voices from the night before
cannot be disguised
suddenly revealing
all the pain inside
Entering a well of thoughts
all her fears subside
all the bad things turning to
a blessing in disguise
Come along with me
The day can breathe once more
To hear the sound of closing doors
The night has opened up its eyes to see day
A thousand moving just as one
A feeling that's so certain
That when this day is done
The paper lads will -
Come with the dawn, casting light on the play
Acting it out in our own special way
Making our entrance and reading the lines
The story of people who live by the TyneBack home once again
The streets that seemed so long
They're waking now
The job is done
See people run to catch the wheels of their lives
The cities reading every line
But while it sleeps you're working
In a world that's just your own
For paper lads alone -
In the dawn going round every day
Seeing your home town in different ways
Carry the news, solving problems you find
Though young who knows what goes on in your mind
Breaking away
I want to stay
Lay in your arms awhile
And watch break of day
Safe in your smile
Mile after mile
I have a photograph
Containing my view
Image of you
Hear the drums
Caress the sound
The music is all around
Each beat could be the start
The end for a lonely heart
Chorus:
Come to me go with me Africa
Here in your mystique Africa
Dark and serene
Just like a dream
Gaze at the deepest eyes
That I've ever seenLive for today
Watch child at play
He speaks of innocence
So far from away
Stay understood
All of life before you stands
Beginning the ancient man
Each beat be the one
A shot from a loaded gun
Chorus
I have a photograph Africa
Lay in your arms awhile Africa
Repeat chorus two times
We spend our nights in shared dreams
wrapped in a jade green mist
our hearts running wild, as the spirit is free
nothing compares to this
can you picture this a beauty unexplained
all the stories every told revealing
Chorus I:
After the ocean is gone
where do we go what do we do
can we carry on in a world without love
can I carry on in a world without you
Oooh
A message came to us all
across a moonlit sky
a love flowing endlessly
soft as a virgin sigh
can you picture this, a beauty unexplained
all the stories ever told revealing
Chorus I
Chorus II:After the oceans are gone
what will we do where will we be
will we carry on in a world without blue
will you carry on in a world without me
Oooh, Oooh
Bring your out-thereness in here
in here, in here.
Don't be afraid to be yourself
love and light will wash away your tears
in here
We are all stars in the night
fish in the mountain stream
no reason to cry
nothing is as it seems
can you picture this, a beauty unexplained
all the stories ever told revealing
Chorus I
Repeat chrous II two times
A touch upon my forehead
a kiss so soft and warm
a smile that faded in the night
that never meant me harm
he lives inside a special place
that's deep inside of me
sheltered by my feelings
that no one else will see
Chorus:
A whisper from Marseilles
a whisper from a friend
that drifts along an empty shore
his love he tries to send
Imagining an ocean
riding on the waves
things we used to talk about
the things we used to crave
no footsteps left behind him
or voice that can be heard
no questions left to ask now
love was the final wordChorus
All things living, moving, breathing
all we want to see
all things living, moving breathing
all we'll ever be
Chorus
Out at daybreak to the sun
Seas are drifting glass
The tides were turning to the storm
Winds were moving fast
Women waiting at the harbour
Silent stand around
Weather storms another day
For men the sea had found
Fisherman were laying nets
The barrels spread the bait
The seagulls warning echoed round
Winds that wouldn't wait
People gathered at the harbour
Waiting for the tide
Eyes half closed against the spray
And tears they cannot hide
Chorus:
Shadows falling at the harbour
Women stand around
Weather storms another way
For men the sea had drownedHulls were creaking crashing sails
Rains were slating down
The oilskins flapping, decks awash
Slanting turning round
Thunder roaring at the harbour
Women drawn in fear
Huddle up to wait the time
And pray the sky will clear
Howling winds and the raging waves
Cracked upon the boats
And torn from safety torn from life
Men with little hope
Ghostly echoes at the harbour
Whispering of death
Women weeping holding hands
Of those they still have left
Chorus
Travel the days of freedom
Roads leading everywhere
Come with me now and show how you care
Follow the dying embers
Cross on the paths that they lay
Breath of the past the earths yesterday
Chorus:
Clear your mind maybe you will find
That the past is still turning
Circles sway echo yesterday
Ashes burning ashes burningColours are fading starlight
Silver the way to find
Walking the shadows, there in our mind
Changing the order slowly
Leaving the mist of time
Fingers are holding fragments of mine
Chorus
Imagine the burning embers
They glow below and above
Your sins you won't remember
And all you'll find there is love
Ashes are burning brightly
The smoke can be seen from afar
So now you're seeing how far
Ashes are burning the way
Ashes are burning the way
Turn of the golden key
Company machine
Sell his identity
Spin their golden dream
Sell him out as the boy next door
Take him under their wing
Gilded cage, but he has it made
Golden bird he sings
Sold out commodity
Everything they need
Image is fancy free
How they'd like to be
So they follow his every move
Hang on in to his style
Made the grade and he has it made
Loved it for a while
Chorus:Another turn of the golden key
The biggest star in the sky
See him fly, he's flown away
Another turn of the key
The music won't die
He still sings
But a new melody
He's singing for free
Took on another name
For publicity
Didn't plan all this fame
Call the company
I'm not sure this is fair exchange
More to lose than I knew
I am lost and they own me now
Golden bird he flew
Chorus
Maybe he'll touch me, maybe he won't
Maybe he's just turning over
Feeling the words drying up in my throat
Maybe he's sleeping, maybe he's not
Maybe I whisper I love you
Maybe the whisper is all that I've got
Could this be heaven, could this be hell
Lying asleep with a stranger
The stranger's the man that I once knew so well
Lying in darkness, lying so still
Why do we lie to each other?
Pretending the things will work out until ...
Chorus:
Communication lets us down
It just went over and out
Communication gets us down
It just went over and over and over and ...
Once there was loving, then there was love
Two people wrapped in each other
Now separate shadows on the ceiling - no more
Then there was screaming, yelling and fights - over and over and over
Now the silence in this silent night .... aaawh
Chorus
Now won't you listen please
Oh, don't pretend that you're asleep
It seems like such an empty bed
It's over, it's over, it's over, it's over ...
Communication lets us down
It just went over and out
Communication gets us down
It just went over and out
Repeat Chorus twice
Communication
I'm wishing on a star
To follow where you are
I'm wishing on a dream
To follow what it means
I'm wishing on a star
To follow where you are
I'm wishing on a dream
To follow what it means
And I wish on all the rainbows that I see
I wish on all the people who really dream
And I'm wishing on tomorrow praying never comes
And I'm wishing on all the loving we've never done
I never thought I'd see
A time when you would be
So far away from home
So far away from me
Just think of all the moments that we'd spent
I just can't let you go from me you were meant
And I didn't mean to hurt you but I know
That in the game of love you reap what you sowI feel it's time we should make up baby
I feel it's time for us to get back together
And make the best of things oh baby
When we're together whether or never
I feel it's time we should make up baby
I feel it's time for us to get back together
And make the best of things oh baby
When we're together whether or never
I'm wishing on a star
To follow where you are
I'm wishing on a dream
To follow what it means
And I wish on all the rainbows that I see
And I wish on all the people we've ever been
And I'm hoping on all the days to come and days to go
And I'm hoping on days of loving you so
I'm wishing on a star
I'm wishing on all the rainbows that I see
I'm wishing on a star

The last that ever she saw him
Carried away by a moonlight shadow
He passed on worried and warning
Carried away by a moonlight shadow
Lost in a riddle that Saturday night
Far away on the other side
He was caught in the middle of a desperate fight
And she couldn't find how to push through
The trees that whisper in the evening
Carried away by a moonlight shadow
Sing a song of sorrow and grieving
Carried away by a moonlight shadow
All she saw was the silhouette of a gun
Far away on the other side
He was shot six times by a man on the run
And she couldn't find how to push through
I say, I pray
See you in heaven far away
I say, I pray
See you in heaven one day
Four AM in the morning
Carried away by a moonlight shadow
I watched your vision forming
Carried away by a moonlight shadowStardust glowing in a silvery night
Far away on the other side
Will you come to talk to me this night
And she couldn't find how to push through
I say, I pray
See you in heaven far away
I say, I pray
See you in heaven one day
Caught in the middle of a hundred and five
Ooh, ooh, ooh
The night was heavy and the air was alive
But she couldn't find how to push through
Carried away by a moonlight shadow
Carried away by a moonlight shadow
Lost in a riddle that Saturday night
Far away on the other side
He was caught in the middle of a desperate fight
And she couldn't find how to push through
Carried away by a moonlight shadow
Carried away by a moonlight shadow
Past lovers whisper
Temptations from before
But I've learned illusion
I don't listen anymore
Some memories thicker still
On my silver screen
But I turn and walk away
From what might have been
I'm breaking ground
Into something that's real
Forgotten tenderness
You show me how to feel
Further from fantasy
I'm closer to you
More I remember
The more I'm pulling through
Further from fantasy
I'm closer to you
From pieces of my dream
You're by my side
Confusion washed away
By the rising tide
The rhythm of my heart
Is like the rhythm of the sea
Can't tell a breath apart
Is it you or me
My passions turned
From dull gray to gold
Fly again now
I've got someone true to holdChorus:
Further from fantasy
I'm closer to you
More I remember
The more I'm pulling through
Further from fantasy
I'm closer to you
I'm breaking ground
Into something that's real
Forgotten tenderness you show me
You show me how to feel
Repeat chorus four times
Further from fantasy
I'm closer to you
From the start through all time
Here upon the wind
Disorder reigned hand in hand with Spring
Earth and the fire
Air and the water
Moulded the sea and landscape
Moving, flowing with no seeming purpose
Endlessly changing
Survival
Spring into Summer
Time for reflection
Time to grow
World full of meaing
Place rearranging
Face ever changing
For all our lives
These are our roots and it's our way
We grow, we reap and sow
We reap and sow the seasons of our day
Within the heart of all things born that day
The Autumn scene brings the Winters way
Colours are shading
Misting and fading
Turning toward
Changes, living
Each time the past and the future
Holding together
Tomorrow
Winter to Springtime, a season for planning
Time to learn
World full of stillness
World ever waiting
Anticipating
For all of our lives
These are our roots, and it's our way
We grow, we reap, and sow
We reap and sow the seasons of our day
We fall, while aiming so high
We crawl, flying
Man has North, South, East and West
Man has, trying
A song for all seasons throughMan has North, South, East and West
Man has music
Man has North, South, East and West
Man makes music
A song for all seasons through
Song for all seasons
A song for all our time
We'll have a song for all the seasons through
Once I was lonely, living in dreams (Shine shine shine shine)
Found my heart open now shine on me
Into my open heart like the sun shines
Into my open soul like the sun shines
A shaft of light through a now open door ....
You so beguiling, smiling at me (Shine shine shine shine)
Smiling and tender soft the breeze
Into my open heart like the sun shines
Into my open soul like the sun shines
A shaft of light through a now open door (Shine shine shine shine)
I hear you whisper, gentle and free (Shine shine shine shine)
Laughing and loving, shining from me (Shine)
If we could feel the thunder
And we could touch the hunger
Our tears inside the storm
Are lost and without form
We reach out to enfold
To save our souls
We think we hear the heart beat
In places where our worlds meet
One world that holds for us all
Enough, that no-one need fall
The stranger we would console
May save our soulsWe believe - still ...
We still believe
That we can see
To save us all ...
Save us all ...
If we could feel the thunder ...
And we could touch the hunger ... (hunger)
Island of Avalon fools, heroes equal share
Truth, legend, fantasy open every mystery
Feudal kings that bore no child
Witches fires burning wild
Chorus:
Island of Avalon, truth or lie
All is well, sound the bell
Merlin would please his king, potions, antiquities
Silas, god of the trees, men of fabled imagery
Descendents of your mystic crown
Walk your land where ghosts abound
Chorus
Island of Avalon as real as we pretend
Superstition without end, these countless names you lend
Stories with no boundaries
Overflow our histories
Chorus
Wanderer, oh wanderer
Chasing up every star
Run for one and then catch none
Then you will know what you are
Then you will know what you are
Wanderer, oh wanderer
Be not afraid of unknowns
Live them through and then will you
Know the truth deep in your bones ?
Know the truth deep in your bones ?
Wanderer, oh wanderer
You are unique as the rest
See your goal and cleanse your soul
Settle and find success
Sultan king cruel majesty
Ordered that his women die
A single night this for all his wives
Takes his pleasure then their lives
And so for many days with the dawn
The sultan had his way
Wives were put to death
His name on their dying breath
Then one day as the evening came
Sultan sends for him a wife
Choose her well charms I wish to see
Bring her, send her in to meThen came Scheherazade to his side
And her beauty shone
Like a flower grown
Gentle as he'd ever known
Scheherazade bewitched him
With songs of jewelled keys
Princes and of heroes
And eastern fantasies
Told him tales of sultans
And talismans and rings
A thousand and one nights she sang
To entertain her king
She sings, Scheherazade, Scheherazade, etc
Champagne cocktails after three
Cafe Royale's the place for me
Penguin waiters chandeliers
All that glitters
Here inside my head my inside
Only once in a lifetime
It only happens once in a lifetime
Make the most of it
Don't play around with it
Only once in a lifetime
Take my hand you silver spoon
We can dance around the room
Angelo bring more wine
My friend and I
We wish to dine
Inside my head my inside
Chorus:
Only once in a lifetime
It only happens once in a lifetime
Make the most of it
Don't play around with it
Only once in a lifetimeOnly once in a lifetime
It only happens only once
Only once in a lifetime
There's many a place I haven't been
Declined an offer from the Queen
Refused admission (you can't come in here mate)
On the door
It's still that Cafe Royale
That scores inside my head my inside
Chorus
Only once in a lifetime
Only once in a lifetime
Only once in a lifetime
Only once in a lifetime
Only once in a lifetime
Only once in a lifetime
Kings and Queens are running wild, lonely for each other
Princes gallant are no more staying under cover
Jesters' jokes aren't even funny, poking fun at sorrow
Lords and Ladies hoard their riches fearful for tomorrow
Fantasies turning into truth
Fantasies turning into truth
Knight in chromium plated armour looking for a reason
Kingdoms crops so fresh and pure are going out of season
Maidens locked in some far tower stay inside forever
Minstrels rhyming songs of reason changing with the weather
Faces the fanfare only the fool
Faces the fanfare only the fool
He was a man just a simple man
His thoughts and pleasures were few
His bread he shared with his father
That was the life that he knew
And how the snow fell in Kiev today
And how the wind drove the mourners away
Now there is only one man at the grave of Davorian
And this man's heart is to heavy to pray
Nah Nah ...
Nah nah ...
He was a man just a simple man
Died at the place of his birth
His tombstone shared by the family
A silent place on the earth
An old man stands by the side of the grave
And this man's heart is too heavy to pray
For he is numb with the pain
Of the love that he couldn't share
Until he died there in Kiev todayDah dah dah ...
Nah nah nah ...
He was a man just a simple man
Died at the place of his birth
His tombstone shared by the family
A silent place on the earth
An old man stands by the side of the grave
And this man's heart is to heavy to pray
For he is numb with the pain
Of the love that he couldn't share
And two men died there in Kiev today
Lah lah lah ...
Nah nah nah ...
Dah dah dah ...
Dah dah nah ... naaaah
Leaving all their thoughts behind
Passing over timeless wastes of ecstasy
Freedom strangled at the source
Takes the only charted course
That leads them home
Their bodies move towards the dawn
The light in which a nation born
Can only hope, and only weep
Their passion may be growing weak
How was alone, recall me if you can
I feel I am lost within you
Many times within the sound of emptiness
A light has shown deep in each others soul
Keeps them apart, a love now makes them whole
Fractured memories tearing at all their dreams
Made life and living a faded scene
To give a name locked in despair
Makes chances of a lifetime course across your eyes
To give and get, and yet return
Emotion smoulders, starts to burn in harmony
They lay within a ruined shell
Searching for the time to tell
That he who followed endlessly
Does not exist, can never be
How was alone, recall me if you can
I feel I have lost within you
A part of what is held inside a deep regret
Taking over all that a hearts request
Answered by cries from a wilderness
Found forgotten lying in deeper sleep
Touching once is so hard to keep
In emptiness, a light has shown deep in each others soul
Keeps them apart, a love now makes them whole
Fractured memories tearing at all their dreams
Made life and living a faded scene
Taking over all that a hearts request
Answered by cries from a wilderness
Found forgotten lying in deeper sleep
Touching once is so hard to keep
The thread is tugging hard
The refugee from Love's not his own
The rainy window tears
The seeds of grass confusion sown
The bait is laid at hand
The deal is much too good to miss
Lucifer sees a stray
And waits to mark him with his kiss
We walk the golden thread
And keep out footing firm and away
If you trip, I'll fall
You'll do the same for me one day
I can hear Brazilian love songs, more every day
They seem stronger on the wind--you don't seem so far away
Someday I'm going to be there, someday I'll be
Standing on your highest mountain looking out across the sea
No longer here so cold and tired
I'm getting out today from Ukraine ways
From my childhood I've seen pictures, don't say a word
Decadent scenes of smiling people half the way across the world
When you live each day in colours of stone and gray
Feelings start to rise within you--steal the chance and get away
Much stronger now, I feel so inspired
I'm getting out today from Ukraine ways
I can feel your rhythm deep within me
I can see your people dance
Here I stand in the ice and snow
Warm where the cold winds blow
Colours that flash through my mind when I'm dreaming
Soon will be seen with these eyes of my own
Tropical days are the things that I live for
No more Ukraine ways
Instrumental
I can feel your rhythm deep within me
I can see your people dance
Here I stand in the ice and snow
Warm where the cold winds blow
Colours that flash through my mind when I'm dreaming
Soon will be seen with these eyes of my own
Tropical days are the things that I live for
No more Ukraine ways
So cold is being lonely
Behold the feeling lonely
The living part is done
The dying has begun
The world is spinning slow
So tired slow
So cold is being sadness
Behold the feeling sadness
Oh how can we believe
We earn what we receive
The pain it overflows
Overflows Lord won't you help us realise
See through your eyes
Within our lives
The earth grows old
The earth grows cold
So cold is being tired
Behold the feeling tired
Stand quietly at the side
Watch darkness open wide
The light is growing dim
So dim within
I watched you to fly away today
You held me close and turned away
And you were gone
I said I couldn't understand
Why you need a foreign land
What's wrong with home?
I need to breathe
Need to see what this life's got in store for me
Take a chance while I can
Not one also ran
Chorus:
I'm on a flight and its taking me closer
Home to a heart that's been left for so long
Time is all that holds me now
And the days have come and gone while I have flown
I'm coming homeI've read your letters, heard of your success
Does that mean happiness? Yes or no?
Temptation that lay across your path
Is it to much to ask to think of me?
I had to fight to be right
There was never a champion for me
Knights in armour don't exist
It's been such a risk
Repeat chorus two times
I'm on a flight and its taking me closer
Home to a heart that's been left for so long
I'm coming home
I'm coming home
I'm on a flight
Around the world he traveled
To start the games that he dreamed of, dreamed of
His biggest triumph lingers
Will only slip through his fingers
He wants to feel the crowd
And be a winner
Each time he takes the step
His reason now for living
Praying silently
He's running there
Running faster
To hear the sheers
The crowd moves closer
He's getting near
A smile displays his victory
It's only for a moment, a moment
Towards the sky in wonder
His mind begins to wander
The cheers are getting near
His name he hears
But he will never fall
This is really living
Praying silently
He's getting near
His time is here
The crowd gets closer
The end is near
From childhood to manhood
He didn't seem to care
He had no time for people
He had no time to share
The biggest race of all
He wants to feel the crowd
And be a winner
Each time he takes a step
His reason is now for living
Praying silently
He's running here
Running faster
To hear the cheers
The crowd moves closer
He's getting near
He's almost here
Getting faster
His time is here
The crowds move closer
The end is hereAnnie Haslam-lead and backing vocals

Brought up and lived by the modern age
Brought a new spot to my life
I love the power you have over me
Amaze my friends and set me free
Here we are walking in step
We've got ideas that we haven't used yet
There's so much left that I want to do
Automatically I think of you
Chorus:
You beginning and you to end
You were the first you never bend
You walk beside me everywhere I go
Our secret's safe they'll never know
But here we are walking on down Electric avenue
Part of today in every way Electric avenueI'm insecure and I'm not so sure
Cause you mean this much to me
Your heart is cold and you won't grow old
I'm full of tricks so watch and see
I can disappear without a trace
Just say the word I'll be gone from this place
There's so much left that I want to do
I'm automatic that I think of you
Chorus
Repeat first four lines of chorus four times
Still life
Frozen like a tear cried in your dreams
Still -
Your life is better for the tears
Your life is richer for the dreams
Still you live and you may weep and you may love
For there are so many ways
Still life
Water colour days there in your eyes
Still -
Your life is better for the past
Your love is richer for the pain
Still you live and you may weep and you may love
For there are so many ways
Still love
Love is never lost and love you find
Still - (Love will see another way)
Your love is sleeping in your mind (Live and love another day)
And you are waking in your dreams
Still you live and you may weep and you may love
For there are so many ways
Still life
Sometimes with you there's no need to speak
Old friends whose paths will more than often meet
Sometimes I smile and you ask me why
Memories of ours are always bitter sweet
Sometimes in dreams you are near to me
Closer than you and I could ever be
Sometimes you smile and I wonder why
Memories of you are always bitter sweet
A lonely cello fades with the sun
And then I wake and my dreams are done
And bitter sweet glimpses haunt me
Dreaming of love that may never ...
... Be sure that you're never lonely
Know that I'm here, should your heart be free
Then we may smile at our memories, together now
Our dreams are more, than bitter sweet
Quiet lapping waves
On this gentle day
Sweet divine you came
So faintly I heard you
My hopes and dreams you carry
Inside the hearts of all the trees
Like a ship at sea
Coming for me
When the thunder came
We sheltered and prayed
In my life again
The greatest emotion
A lightness in my body
I spread my wings to fly with you
Most amazing view
Touching heaven
Through the air I see a garden
Down it's path we all must go
The pearls of wisdom
Run down my face
Caught in love
Oh as the love flows
Oh caught in this glow
Oh as the love flows
Oh so we all grow
Oh as the love flows
Oh as the love flows

I love to watch you move swaying like a child
I have always wanted to know you
Then you gave to me, the greatest gift of all your stories
Sunrise in the sky, rivers come alive
The trees will carry messages for me
Born in different lands across the highest seas
I would tremble thinking about you
Then the winter came, your tales of love remain
ice, snow, the wind and rain
As a boy he'd always heard
The meaning of life hidden in a single word
Serenading through his years
A talented man surrounded my mystery
Gather all the missing days
All the ones that slipped away
He will bring them back and not speak
Lay them at my golden feet
He gave me one thousand roses
Even before he had known my name
Knowing from when they were flying
No more the sadness that was my flame
In a time when we all dream
A weaver of words who everyone wants to meet
Will he always wish to be
A teller of tales a sower of magic seeds
We were actors in a play
Celebrate the ancient way
Listen to the songs of old
In the saddest key of all
He gave me one thousand roses
Even before he had known my name
Knowing from then we were flying
No more the sadness that was my flame
Then he gave to me, the greatest gift of all

Voices and music cry to be heard
See the white horses ride out on the surf
Chicken will gather they live for the day
Lifting our spirits in their Latin way
Rivers and mountains the mist on the sea
All come together a patchwork of dreams
Brothers in stone always standing in line
Old southern cross luminous in the sky
Rhythm of the night in the dark lagoon
Lovers on the sand
Dancing never ends Life in Brazil
Just before midnight the streets come alive
Hearts beating faster as darkness arrives
See through silk dresses the temperatures rise
Weaving a pattern enriching their lives
Rhythm of the night in the dark lagoon
Lovers on the sand
Dancing never ends
Life in Brazil
Moonlight is waning and night starts to end
Kissing a lover embracing a friend
Ages of laughter and love in their eyes
Finger of god reaching up to the heavenly sky
Life in Brazil

I am words, I am speaking
I never heard my conclusion
Lost the way in my confusion, in illusion
Lost inside the picture frame
I'm not to blame, I didn't see the black flame
I'm not ashamed, its poetry, the black flame
I'm rearranged, it's changing me, the black flame
Burns my blackened brain
I am strong, I am leaving
I never knew I'd feel the need so
Where to go, I'll turn the flow, I could not know
Screams inside the burning pain
It's spinning head, it's under hand--the black flame
It lies instead, I turned and I ran--the black flame
On me, it fed,I understand--the black flame
Burns my blackened brainRun from me, don't you see
That we are one and I'm a part of you
Get away, any way
I'm still a secret in the heart of you
And I'm the burning in your soul
Now I'm weak, I am losing
I never thought I'd stop trying
I'm a lie, I'm just a sigh, just a crying
Just a symbol of the game
Suspended pain, I can not face the black flame
Intended fear, I can not trace the black flame
Extended reaching into space--the black flame
Burns my blackened brain
Love of my life
Where are you now on this earth
Safe and secure as the deep ocean floor
You were always there
You're on my mind
Longing for you in my life
On a white horse we would ride like the wind
All the loving times
All of my love all my emotion
Always there calling me
Anytime reach out and I'll be there
And though we're far apart
We'll always have our love
We'll always be the same
So look in the sky
We share the moon and stars
For all eternity
The road is long and I am with you never-ending
We're walking along in the sunshine
Here in my heart
Floating in a gondola of dreams
You will appear as the mist disappears
I will hear our song
When you are gone
To a place in the sun
Silence is heard all the wondrous words
You're the only one
All my love and emotion
Always there calling to me
Anytime reach out and I'll be there
And though we're far apart
We'll always have our love
We'll always be the same
So look into the sky
We share the moon and stars
For all eternity
The road is long and I am with you
never-ending
We're walking along in the sunshine

While in the streets of all our fears
They reign supreme as orders go
They are the last to have their say
And last to know it doesn't matter how you try
It doesn't matter what you say
They always watch with hollow eyes
To put you down they always find a way to criticise
Chorus I:
The vultures fly high
They circle over us all
The vultures fly high
I'll take your hand if you fall
All those who sheltered in their smile
Are scattered here from yesterday
And if the weak are left behind
They have to pay and though you haven't much to give
You know they take it, yours and mine
Sometimes it looks as though we lose
But then in time the finger points at them
The next in line
Repeat Chorus I[Instrumental break]
Chorus II:
The vultures fly high
They circle over us all
The lonely sigh
I'll take your hand if you fall
Repeat Chorus II twice
When I meet you, rainy day
You were so wild, I was afraid
Then you said take my hand
We'll go to Eva's Pond
Sail away
Early morning, In Phoenicia
We had arrived
Only to find many questions there
Guard us, sleepless
In this place where love is endless and so pure, is so pure
High above here, on a mountain
Watching the world, making no sound,
We became lovers then
As night turned to into day
Blue to gold
When I meet you, rainy day
How could I know
Our love would grow with a grace so rare
Guard us, keep us
Guide us, sleepless
In this love where time is endless, evermore, evermore

As it was

Dear Landseer
We have been asked by the queen
She has heard you are the best
To capture her beloved animals for all to see
Dear Landseer
So highly thought of we agree
We know that your work is done
With love and care the Lions of Trafalgar Square
Highland Scene
Full of moody skies
A mountain stream
Heather in the breeze
You paint the land with a grace and speed
You paint a dog, a stag, a hawk, a deer
Dear Landseer
If you will honor our request
You'll be far away from weekend parties
Sketching people having fun and dancing
Dear Landseer
A view of haunting delight
Show upon a hill a place where time stand still
Her special ones will run among leaves
Highland Scene
Full of moody skies
A mountain stream
Heather in the breeze
You paint the land with grace and speed
You paint a dog, a stag, and hawk, a deer
This beautiful painting
Is now on her wall
Standing tall
Immortalized
now in oil
Dear Landseer
The veil of sadness that descended
Has been removed with this view
Dear Landseer
We thank you so much
There's no doubt you're the best loved artist in the land
There's no doubt you're the best loved in the land
There's no doubt you're the best loved in the land

Changing moods and stranger feelings
In my dealings with the world
Faces that I've seen before am I sure
Or has my brain turned
Thinking about things I don't understand
Thinking about things I don't understand
Dreams and omens of my future
Like a sculpture finely molded
Stars that guide my destiny
Tell me what I will be
A chart unfolded
Thinking about things I don't understand
Thinking about things I don't understand
Da da ... la la ... oh oh oh ...
Seems there's plans for everyone
The day will come and we will know
We all are tied in with each other
Everyone brothers
One great flowThinking about things I don't understand
Thinking about things I don't understand
La la la ...
And in the morning of my time
I'll try to understand
I learn by what I find
And love you if I can
We don't need to know the answers
To hope and pray for peace
And each by what he can
To make us all complete
Oh oh oh ...
Here in the spotlight cold air tonight, I'm giving all for you
Days pass quickly, hope that you'll miss me when the show is through
The entertainer's no stranger, she only lives to play
The distance between us is only a note or two away
Travel to places, fill all the spaces in everybody's lives
Don't show the pressure, try not to measure how you feel inside
The entertainer's no stranger, she only lives to play
The distance between us is only a note or two away
We sing with one voice
There's no choice so join us
We're singing for you
Time and again in the circus of sound
Leaving the stage and the people behind us
Music calls--come and see, come and see, come and see
We sing with one voice
There's no choice so join us
We're singing for you
Time and again in the circus of sound
You've found something that's new
Travel to places, fill all the spaces in everyone's life
Don't show the pressure, try not to measure ...
Leaving the stage and the people behind us
Music calls--come and see, come and see, come and see, come and see
Deep in the past there lived a man whose story must be told
Of royal descent but not of the royal line, oh oh
No history book relates this night of indiscretion
Into the world he's brought, never to be presented at court
In his mind a king though his mother wasn't wearing a ring
She keeps on saying:
Chorus I:
";What they gonna do with Richard, Richard The Ninth?
You know he's my son, and the thought of it cuts like a knife
To think he'll ever sit upon the throne
A prince without a home
What we gonna do with Richard, Richard The Ninth
The least that we could do is to provide for his life
No job could have a stranger pedigree
He means so much to me!";
As Richard grew, he won the hearts of all the people
His father reigned, and while the servants poured, wo-oh
The lady waits and watches with anticipation
Ways of the world he's taught
The eyes of the queen he has caught
Midnight matinees soon become the order of play
She keeps on saying:
Chorus II:
";What we gonna do with Richard, Richard The Ninth?
You know he's my son and the daughter, the queen, is his wife
Becomes the answer to my fantasy
He means the world to me";
";What we gonna do with Richard, Richard The Ninth?
It seems a night of love, in the end turned out right
One day I know he'll sit upon the throne
A prince no more alone";
This classic tale of woe
Should tell you all you want to know
A page from our history
It's meant so much to me, to me
Chorus I
Chorus II
Repeat to fade
Hour by hour I feel the tension mounting
Pretty soon now I'll be on my way
People meeting, greeting, leaving, meaning
Everything they say
Start to move, feel closer now
I walk along the corridors of power
Orient Express, life to excess
There's so much to see, and it's waiting for me
Out threre, I care, I dare
Through a country that you've only heard of
Through the valleys, feel the pressure drop
Onwards moving 'til you see the mountains
Feel your heart may stopDay and night feel closer now
I walk along these corridors of power
Orient Express, built to impress
There's so much to see, and you set me free
Out here, feel near, to fear
It's tragic--keeps on happening all the time
It's the kind of thing that I fear
I feel I'm making no headway
Walls I know are starting to disappear
It's like they'd never existed, strange but true
As sure as I'm talking to you
Now you see it, now I don't want to frighten you
But I'm simply here standing alone
Chorus I:
Trapped in these shadows that belong to missing persons
Names faded from memory join the list and then mark time
Once I would have been glad to have made your acquaintance
Now I feel a danger brought about by circumstance
Obsessed, the quality of life escapes me now
It's one of the things I lack
From the east and to the west
I feel it's time that I was heading back
I can't control these feelings that I have
I've never been one to hide
Become a pillar of society
But don't let your morals slide
Chorus II:
Or you can find that you've become a missing person
A here today gone tomorrow breeze and lost in the night
Once I would have been glad to have made your acquaintance
Now I feel a danger brought about by circumstance
But I know in the end, I'll be safe, we'll be happy
After finding myself we'll be fine
Any problems we have will be gone in a moment
I'll become just a state of the mind
I want you close
I need you near
You have to be here
I turned around
You've gone again
Chorus I
Chorus II
Day by day I'm feeling the need
To search to find
Hear the voices speaking to me
They're in my mind
It's Majik, it's tragic
What is happening to me?
Another no name tragedy
Majik (can't you understand)
Majik (the children are close at hand)
Once so long ago I'd explain
Each feeling clear
Now the thoughts they dance and they weave
To disappear
It's Majik, it's tragic
What is happening to me?
Another lost game lost to me
Majik (have the rights to resist)
Majik (before it takes to the wrist)Surround yourself in a cloak of stars
This must be heaven
You've held to answer the early hours
They have been given to you
What is happening to me?
Another lost game lost to me
What is happening to me?
Lost in twilight memories
Majik (now your life's in a test)
Majik (feel your voice in a fist)
What is happening to me?
Another lost game lost to me
What is happening to me?
Another no name tragedy
What is happening to me?
Hear the voice I speak to me
What is happening to me?
Lost in twilight memories
What is happening to me?
The Majik surrounds all I see
What is happening to me?
Another no name tragedy
What is happening to me?
Another lost game lost to me ...
I thought it was over
I thought I was free of you
Then came deja vu
I thought there's no problem
I saw you had feet of clay
That was yesterday
I find I'm running going nowhere
I find I'm searching every crowd I pass through
Looking for you
Chorus:
Deja vu can really haunt you
Follow and confuse you
Secrets coming back to taunt you
Find you and then lose you
Memories are all you walk through
Yester- deja vu
I thought I was OK
I thought I was in control
I was not involved
I thought there's no hassle
Then I heard our special song
Everything went wrongI see you standing in the doorway
I walk towards you and I find just shadow
Where did you go?
Chorus
I remember all the things we used to do together
In the past
Nothing ever seems to last
I wonder if there was some ... something neglected ...
Something left unsaid, hasty words instead
Anything that could go wrong
It seems nothing was ever right
I'm haunted by lost chances past
I call to you in dreams at night
I'm fettered by our yesterday
Tomorrow is a bird in flight
I run to turn another page
And there you are within but out of sight
Our love, a bird in flight
Repeat chorus two times
Distant horizons you're surprising me
See how you've changed in your fight to be free
Political intervention
Is something we shouldn't mention
But I've seen your face on every screen
And it's looking at me
You used to be so close
I could have touched your hand
I see your picture now
And you've become a no-man's land
I long to visit you
But now it seems too late
Don't let these modern times
Make you one more mistake
Take my heart, take my soul
You've captured all of me
If you can't let me go
Then live in peace and set me free
Distant horizons you're surprising me
Political intervention
Is something we shouldn't mention
But I've seen your face on every screen
And it's looking at me
You're reaching out to me
I hide inside your smile
It's time for us to love
But we must wait a while
I long to visit you
And there live out my fate
Don't let these lying eyes
Lead you to hesitate
Take my heart, take my soul
You've captured all of me
If you can't let me go
Then live in peace and set me free
Distant horizons you're surprising me
See how you've changed in your fight to be free
Distant horizons you're surprising me
If you can't let me go, in peace let me be
Political intervention
Is something we shouldn't mention
But I've seen your face on every screen
And it's looking at me
Capturing me, looking at me, capturing me
Nothing to say
I see your face
Memories haunt me again
They'll always remain
Time spent, time that was lost
In love we all count the cost
I remember days that we spent together
Seem so far away
Chorus:
In time I may forget you
Or you may remember me
Till then I'll be living but lonely
Each face a stranger to me
For no other locked in another Chagrin Boulevard day
Watching the rain
My friend, once again
I stand in this room where we lay
Was it just yesterday?Looking down to the street
At people embrace as they meet
I remember love that we shared together
Now you're far away
Chorus
There's room for no other
I'll not spend another Chagrin Boulevard day
I miss you so much
Since you went away
Repeat first four lines of chorus three times
The other woman
The other woman
I turn away, know you're lying
Hear you call her name, find myself crying
It's so absurd, I tell myself
He hasn't changed
Always wants somebody else, another game
Always thinking of himself
Another day andother year another name
Chorus:
I'll be how the other woman is
I'll be just who I am
I'm composing, my goodbye love
Find myself, and losing no more time
Be how I know I can
I'm supposing, you know why love
They flatter you, you send flowers
Say you'll be right home, they you're gone, hours
It's so absurd, the same old song
Why should he change?
So secure, cause he has me to fall back on
Who's to blame the other woman
No he'll stay the same until he finds me gone
ChorusWill you send roses?
I have to say it feels so strange
So out of place
Insecure I see the flowers rearranged
How I changed, the other woman
And I'll stay the same, continue to be strong
Chorus
So absurd I have to say
Your roses came today
(You) sing the same old song
You only want me now because I've gone
Yes I've gone
I've gone
I've gone
I've gone
I've gone
I know it's hard to get it out
Pick up the phone and put it down
You drink some wine and think about it
It's even hard to call a friend
You write a note that you won't send
With every thought you seem to doubt it
Feel all your hope is blown to dust and sorrow
You have no way to follow
Chorus:
Throw it all away
Take another day
Everything is okay
Now it's out of sight
Hold on in the night
Everything is alright
Somewhere west of here
I wish you trusted me sometimes
Thoughts are going round and round
There is a way and you will find it
If I can help just call my name
I'll try to be there ease your pain
If there's a mountain we can climb it
Feel all your words are sounding hollow
You cannot find tomorrowChorus
You'll find peace somewhere west of here
When your hopes are grey like dust
You feel so helpless
When your dreams drift by like cloud
You see to feel less
This wilderness will lead you west
I was secure in my mind
Nothing would sway my way
I closed my eyes your designs
Left me unmoved to doubt you
Don't talk to me of love songs
Melodies stray colour my day
Don't talk about ways - that we once loved, and once lived
Don't talk about days we were together
Don't think, I'll break down - your fingers soft on my skin
Don't talk about love - 'cause I won't let you in
I was so sure on my own
No-one could change my day
I could be happy alone
That's where I lived without you
You talk to me of love songs
Melodies weave making believe
Don't talk about ways we once laughed and made love
Don't talk about us, I've no defenses
You know I'll break down, your fingers soft on my skin
Don't talk about love - 'cause I just might let you in
Talk don't talk - talk
Talk don't talk - talk
Talk don't talk - talk
Talk don't talk - talk
Don't talk about ways - that we once loved, and once lived
Don't talk about days we were together
Don't think I'll break down - your fingers soft on my skin
Don't talk about love - 'cause I won't let you in
Don't talk about ways we once laughed and made love
Don't talk about us, I've no defenses
You know I'll break down - your fingers soft on my skin
Don't talk about love - 'cause I just might let you in
Don't talk about ways we that once loved and made thin ... together
Don't think I'll break down - your fingers soft on my skin
Don't talk about love - 'cause I just might let you in
Don't talk about ways we once laughed and made love
Don't talk about us, I've no defenses
You know I'll break down - your fingers soft on my skin
Don't talk about love - 'cause I just might let you in
And you would cause the sun to see your light
And then be shamed
You cover darkness with a thousand secret flames
With your love, oh my love, oh my love, my love
And I would cause the winds to blow a hundred different days
And bring the perfumes of the gardens of the ways
Of your love, oh my love, oh my love, my love
Crystal and the clay, nights and the days
All on the prince's seal
Eagle of the sky, lion of the earth
This is what the seal is worth, what the seal is worth
Holds all of the dreams of a man
Tapestries, wishes of man, pictures and visions of man
The spirit of the soul of the man
And he would vow to love her for the rest of all his days
One day we took a walk beside the river
You, you threw a stone into the water
That day, we saw the sunrise in the dawn sky
You, you smiled and there was warmth around us
We moved slowly as the wind blew softly there
One day
We walked along a lonely seascape
There, we left our footprints far behind us
Sea-birds, they circled - weaving, above us
They, they watched us dreaming thereOne day, moved grey to blue
Then back from blue to grey
One day - when I am missing you
Then I'll walk along the beach there
And watch the sea-birds fly - so high
And change the day from grey to blue
Reached out, and touched the cool night air, we felt
The warmth of love around us
One day, we saw the sunrise in the dawn sky
One day, we took a walk beside the river
One day ....
Once she would dance on centre stage
While he was blinded by the light
She sang and danced, danced her glitter dreams for them
While he, he waited out of sight
But he won't wait there forever more
He told her so, she did not believe his words
So she would dance in those glitter dreams
She did not know he would leave
So she would dance his life away
'Cause she was blinded by the lights
And when he left, left her glitter dreams behind
She danced, she danced into the night
But without love waiting in the wings
She would dance for him, she could not believe he'd gone
So now she dances her dusty dreams
The glitter's gone
Now the glitter's turned into dust, she dances on ...
Now without love waiting in the wings
She will dance for him, she does not believe he's gone
And now she dances her dusty dream
The glitter's gone
Now the glitter's turned into dust
On, on and on she dances all alone
She dances just for him
She sings come back, sings to him from centre stage
But now the light is growing dim
Turned to dust .....
Dust .....
Forever earthbound - found in illusion
Spinning in circles deep, in my confusion
Memories fading - slip into fantasy
I may be leaving - then stay
Following endlessly
Tangled in silence (Tangled in silence)
Echoes I'm chasing (Echoes I'm chasing)
Falling in out of time, I see I'm wasting
Drifting and helpless, hold on to emptiness
We may be losing and lost
And see nothing more
Tangled in fragments - holding together
Taking my place with you, finding forever
Tomorrow's calling - bringing eternity
Now I can see we are bound
Into infinity
Closer I hear you, (tomorrow's calling), feel I am near you
It's been a lonely road, treading the same ground
So tired of waiting
(And you know it doesn't always have to be that way)
Forever earthbound
(And you know it sometimes only seems to be that way)
We walk a lonely road
(Reach out and - we'll be there)
Treading the same ground
(Reach out and - we're with you)
(We're with you)
(We're with you)
(Accept and believe, you have no cause to grieve)
(And however small, you're a part of it all)
(And all you conceal, you may reveal)
(Forever found, you'll be ever earthbound)
Forever earthbound, forever earthbound
Forever earthbound, forever bound
Part 1
You, winter and spring
Deepest emotion everything
You fill my empty life
Take my hand, hold me close
The storm is long, you
You, dreaming of me
One voice together
Eyes that see
You, crying in the night
Took my love, kept me warm
Till daybreak came, you
How my heart needs you
You, you
Part 2
I walk in twilight
A tightrope stretches out in front of me
A skyline, a strange distortion of everything I see
You took my hand and left me reeling
If I talk to myself, I'm talking to you
You hold me in the balance of your love that's true
It's you
It's you
I need only you
You should have kept me
Words cannot express the way I feel
The void around me
An empty space that only you can fill
You took my mind and gave me healing
If I talk to myself I'm thinking of you
From the corners of their eyes, they're watching me too
It's you
It's you
I need only youI feel it won't be long
Until you realise you were wrong
You will feel the need for me
I wake to find us gone
From where we used to be together, loving
I wake to find us gone
From where we used to be together, laughing
A part of me I left with you
Reflects in all I do, I'm crying
A part of me I left with you
Reflects in all I do, I'm crying
Crying, over you
(Instrumental)
I searched to find some truth within this world
That lay before these shadows
I searched to find some truth within this world
That lay before these shadows
A part of me I left with you
Reflects in all I do, I'm crying
A part of me I left with you
Reflects in all I do, I'm crying
Crying, over you
This time, you said it all, it's there in black and white
The years of struggle fade in the end, the words felt right
All worries are gone, you've been for so long, another writer wronged
Fame suits you well, you hardly can tell, you're another writer wronged
You hid from shadows in the attics of the world
Sheltered the truth, it grew and at last your voice was heard
The pen was your sword, you've even been called, another writer wronged
Fame suits you well, you hardly can tell, you're another writer wronged
Chorus I:
Here I sit as we dine at the country club
I am wondering what to do now
I can write but it doesn't seem logical
Money has a strange effect somehow
Critics look, loved the book
The plot had such a clever hook
Life is blas¨¦, this is how I pass my day
With friends as yet, some of which I've never met
Chorus II:
I've been spending more time on the yacht
While I wonder what to do now
I'm too young to write philosophical
Money's had a strange effect somehow
Critics looked, loved the book
The plot had such a clever hook
Repeat Chorus I
Repeat Chorus II
Worries are gone, you've been for so long, another writer wronged
There must have been a time when you weren't on my mind
The days before I knew your face
There must have been a night when I would miss your light
Beside me in that lonely space
There's no beginning and no end
The colours and the faces blend
Rain and the sunshine send, no beginning and no end
People and places blend, no beginning and no end
There must have been a day before you came my way
I saw the space you were to fill
I just can't find the change, the things love rearranged
I love you now, I always will
There's no beginning and no end
The music and the pictures blend
Echoes and voices said, no beginning and no end
Good and the sad times led, no beginning and no end
And as the sun will rise
And so the sun will set again
So we will turn and then
There's no beginning and no end
There's no beginning and no end
The colours and the faces blend
Rain and the sunshine send, no beginning and no end
People and places blend, no beginning and no end
Echoes and voices said, no beginning and no end
Good and the sad times led, no beginning and no end
No beginning, no end ...
Five below, watch the headlights rush by
Monday morning, tired voices, cloudy sky
Dreams of sun lit hazy days
Silver screen won't you please take me away
Has the style, that's what everyone says
Created image, she's an idol of the age
Acting like a little child
Could you love her if only for a while
Chorus:
She only wants to be a star
Longs to be just where you are
You're the dreamaker
Please don't forsake her
She's only living for today
Don't you take her breath away
You're the dreamaker
You know you should take her
Where you goTeenage days in her room, of fantasy
Evening falls, buy a ticket to your dream
Watching lovers play their part
Could she be just another lonely heart
Chorus
Hid from shadows of the light
How she cries for you at night
Fame and fortune calls her name
She'll let you steal her heart away
Trade her soul for tenderness
A gentle touch, the warm caress
Be the star of every show
Dreamaker take her
Where you go
";Let us be lovers, we'll marry our fortunes together";
";I've got some real estate here in my bag";
So we bought a pack of cigarettes and Mrs. Wagner's pie
And walked off to look for America
";Kathy,"; I said as we boarded a Greyhound in Pittsburgh
";Michigan seems like a dream to me now";
It took me four days to hitchhike from Saginaw
I've come to look for America
I've come to look for America
Laughing on the bus
Playing games with the faces
She said the man in the gabardine suit was a spy
I said ";Be careful his bowtie is really a camera";
";Toss me a cigarette I think there's one in my raincoat";
";We smoked the last one an hour ago";
So I looked at the scenery, she read her magazine
And the moon rose over an open field
";Kathy, I'm lost,"; I said, though I knew she was sleeping
";I'm empty and aching and I don't know why";
Counting the cars on the New Jersey Turnpike
They've all come to look for America
All come to look for America
All come look for America
";The Sultan";
Sultan king cruel majesty
Ordered that his women die
A single night this for all his wives
Takes his pleasure then their lives
And so for many days with the dawn
The sultan had his way
Wives were put to death
His name on their dying breath
Then one day as the evening came
Sultan sends for him a wife
Choose her well charms I wish to see
Bring her, send her in to me
Then came Scheherazade to his side
And her beauty shone
Like a flower grown
Gentle as he'd ever known
Scheherazade bewitched him
With songs of jewelled keys
Princes and of heroes
And eastern fantasies
Told him tales of sultans
And talismans and rings
A thousand and one nights she sang
To entertain her king
She sings, Scheherazade, Scheherazade, etc
";The Young Prince And The Young Princess As Told By Scheherazade";
And you would cause the sun to see your light
And then be shamed
You cover darkness with a thousand secret flames
With your love, oh my love, oh my love, my love
And I would cause the winds to blow a hundred different days
And bring the perfumes of the gardens of the ways
Of your love, oh my love, oh my love, my love
Crystal and the clay, nights and the days
All on the prince's seal
Eagle of the sky, lion of the earth
This is what the seal is worth, what the seal is worth
Holds all of the dreams of a man
Tapestries, wishes of man, pictures and visions of man
The spirit of the soul of the man
And he would vow to love her for the rest of all his days
";The Festival";
Sheherazade this day is yours
The bearers of your gifts now all around you stand
The finest silk made in the land
Is waiting for your choice
It shimmers at your hand
Sheherazade your life is one
You have today the sultan's love
The people watch you step into the sun
Stalls and bars of every kind
Food piled high on woven leaves for all to eat
Drums and flutes at every turn
The music winding, twisting through the crowded streets
Caravans from far away bring people laughing
People come to see the sultan in Baghdad today
Scheherazade her name is known
Her tale is told
The sultan let her life be spared
The festival begins this day
To celebrate her fame
The people sing her praise
Stories sung, the crowds are dancing
To the music and the entertainment all the voices sing
The people call to see the king
The sultan smiles
His story just begun
The sultan and Sheherazade are one
Scheherazade, Scheherazade
She told him tales of sultans and talismans and rings
A thousand and one nights she sang to entertain her king
She sings, Scheherazade, Sheherazade, Scheherazade, etc.
Running hard towards what used to be
Losing ground in changes sliding endlessly
Reaching out for mirrors hidden in the web
Painting lines upon your face inside instead
Sounds so bad the music's flat on every line
Songs of blackened lace know you're dying all the time
Sounds so bad you let the music take your soul
Slipping through the day
Lose the only way you know
Running hard towards what used to be
Losing ground in changes sliding endlessly
Reaching out for things you want to see
Find reflections of insane realityLa la ...
Running hard towards what used to be
Losing ground in changes sliding endlessly
Reaching out for shadows passing through
See the dark around is coming down on you
Tried to take it all away
Learn her freedom just inside a day
And find her soul
To find their fears allayed
Tried to make her love their own
They took her love they left her there
They gave her nothing back
That she would want to own
Gold and silver rings and stones
Dances slowly of the moon
No-one else can know
She stands alone
Sleeping dreams will reach for her
She cannot say the words they need
She knows she's alone
And she is free
Chorus:
Ocean gypsy of the moon
The sun has made a thousand nights
For you to hold
Ocean gypsy where are you
The shadows followed by the stars
Have turned to gold, turned to gold
Then she met a hollow soul
Filled him with her light
And was consoled she was the moon
And he, the sun was gold
Eyes were blinded with his light
The sun she gave
Reflected back the night
The moon was waning almost out of sightSoftly ocean gypsy calls
Silence holds the stars awhile
They smile sadly
For her where she falls
Just the time before the dawn
The sea is hushed
The ocean calls her
Day has taken her and now she's gone
Chorus
No-one noticed when she died
Ocean gypsy shackled to the tide
The ebbing waves were turning
Spreading wide
Something gone within her eyes
Her fingers lifeless stroke the sand
Her battered soul was lost
She was abandoned
Silken threads like wings still shine
Winds take pleasure still make patterns
In her lovely hair
So dark and fine
Stands on high beneath the seas
Cries no more
Her tears have dried
Oceans weep for her the ocean sighs
Chorus
Pays the price, works the seasons through
Frozen days, he thinks of you
Cold as ice but he burns for you
Mother Russia, can't you hear him too?
Mother's son, freedom's overdue
Lonely man, he thinks of you
He isn't done, only lives for you
Mother Russia, can't you hear him too?
Punished for his written thoughts
Starving for his fame
Working blindly, building blocks
Number for a name, his blood flows frozen to the snow
Red blood, white snow
He knows frozen rivers won't flow
So cold, so true
Mother Russia--he cries for youOoh ooh ...
Bah dah dah dah ...
Punished for his written thoughts
Starving for his fame
Working blindly, building blocks
Number for a name his blood flows frozen to the snow
Red blood, white snow
He knows frozen rivers won't flow
So cold, so true
Mother Russia--he cries for you
Sunlight shining Kyoko-san
Shades her face behind her fan
Silk kimono, amber comb
Geisha Kyoko-san's alone
Moving through the willow leaves
Past the tea house trees
Preparing for the evening play
Kyoko-san would please
In Shimoda geisha-san
Tells of lost Okichi-san
Taken from the geisha place
To a foreign cold embrace
Bound in duty to perform
Okichi-san was torn
Unhappy Okichi-san lived a life forlorn
In Shimoda geisha Kyoko-san is resting
Lost Okichi-san geisha Kyoko-san
Different as two can be
SighingIn Shimoda Gefu lanterns glow this evening
Through the paper screen
Painted candle's light
Soft against the perfect night sky
In Shimoda poor Okichi-san is sleeping
Dreams of blossom trees
Heavy on the ground
Scented petals falling so soft
Through the paper screen
Painted candle's light
Soft against the perfume night sky
Couldn't have loved you more but I know
I could have loved you longer
Crying for the moon
Couldn't have loved you less but I know
I could have loved you longer
Over all too soon
Come down to earth, how the time flies
Come down to earth, how the love lies
A broken butterfly
Chorus I:
Trapped in a wheel, a butterfly
I can't conceal the way I feel
Now that you're gone it's been so long
Bonjour swansong
Hiding behind a song and I know
I could have loved you longer
Singing just for you
Couldn't have loved you more but I know
I could have loved you longer
Didn't make it throughCome down to land after so long
Come down to land, bonjour swansong
A broken butterfly
Chorus II:
Caught on the wing, a butterfly
A broken wing, but still I sing
Now that you're gone it's been so long
Bonjour swansong
And I thought we'd touch eternity
But all we have are memories
I thank you for the sweetness
That you gave to me
Repeat Chorus I - Chorus II - Chorus I
Praying for a miracle
daylight had begun
he saw a woman dancing
dancing in the sun
Her silhouetted body
a jewel in the sky
became his only reason
his reason to survive
Chorus:
The colours of the casbah
the laughter in the streets
is this where her flame lives
and what he seeks
even though he feels it
he knows he's never seen
the flame that's eternal
and never dies - never diesHe'd never known this feeling
a perfect work of art
passion and the loving
of a newly opened heart
She became the miracle
as the night drew near
whispering a love song
that only angels hear
Repeat chorus two times
Far off in the future
through a crystal ball
there is someone waiting
someone you have dreamed of
further in the future
he will take your hand
sit down right beside you
promising a lifetime
see this through your eyes
Chorus:
Life so far hasn't been good
but now you see a face
that shatters pieces of the past
and brings a new found peace
Take his ring of fortune
use it while you can
binding you forever
try to understand him
put the past behind your
let the man come in
don't deny your feelings
he is in your lifeline
see this through your eyesChorus
Laying down beside you
on a shooting star
burning deep inside you
like a flame eternal
he has taken over
now he's in your soul
never dying laughter
all you ever dreamed of
see this through your eyes
Chorus
All those years you spent alone
all that wasted time
wondering if this would change
always the same
in your heart you're crying
Then one day someone appears
you don't even know
you don't have to say a word
when you realise
that love's arrived
and this time here to stay
Chorus:
Love comes to you
you've waited such a long time
now you're complete
and you're love
Yesterday was very hard
nowhere else to turn
now the timing's right you know
when you turn around
and there's not a sound
but a silent look of loveChorus
Many days you've wanted to
enter a new life
now your troubles disappear
and the struggle dies
Sometimes when you think out loud
miracles come true
there's the proof in every day
you hear him say a new life
Chorus
Met a man with the answer to everything
Books and words from philsophers come
Analysed and he cut down a winter tree
To find the sun
Fell asleep, had a dream by the winter tree
Heard the snow fall and melt into spring
Saw the ice lose its hold
On the pale frost grass
To which it clings
Chorus:
Have you ever seen a better day
Though we follow many different ways
Though your mind may hold the winter time
Spring is never very far behind
In the summer under open skies
We'll see the sunshine, shine on
Take it easy live today today
We'll see the sunshine, shine onWhen I woke there I was by the winter tree
Nothing changed but a thought in the air
Seasons turn, take their days
And in time, I'll take mine
I'll go back there
Chorus
Shine on
Take it easy live today today
We'll see the sunshine, shine on
Duplicated man, inside, double tied
Prisoner, he's back to back, face to face
Mirrored shadows always changing place
Separated man himself he divides
Opposite needs he can't see where to hide
A single double side - Jekyll and Hyde
This man was good, he was calm
He'd never do any harm
Gentle soul as you may see
As caring as he could be
Chorus:
Deep down inside he hides
A twist that we maybe missed
Confusion and nasty trick of fate
Might be the break
Don't find yourself too late
Now who's outside, inside, Jekyll and Hyde
This man acid raving beast
His eyes, his rage unleash
He tears apart all at hand
Back to the wall is his standChorus
Duplicated man, inside, double tied
Prisoner, he's back to back, face to face
Mirrored shadows always changing place
Separated man himself he divides
Opposite needs he can't see where to hide
A single double side - Jekyll and Hyde
This man unsteady and unsure
Where did he go before
Slightly afraid you may see
Forgetting who you may be
Chorus
Now who's outside, inside, Jekyll and Hyde
Now who's outside, inside, Jekyll and Hyde
... repeat to end
Holding on to yesterday
Meant all the world to me
Finding out that you exist
Has made a clearer day to see
Only this morning
When I realised
Sun shining through
My window open wide
Feelings that held my heart
Close to all your smiles
Living in an empty space
Surrounded by broken lies
How my meaning had been lost
Until I found you in my eyes
How could my spirit
Free itself from doubt
Holding a dream inside
That should be out
Freer than all the streams
That have flowed to the sea
Chorus:If there's a moment
That belongs to me only
It must be now you are here
Inside my life
And if I can be forever
In the closeness of you
Then I'll stay
As a shadow on your mind
Left for your memories to find
Looking into sleepy eyes
Gazing across my view
Knowing that tomorrow brings
A day containing one less fool
Finding the answer
Lying in your love
Carries on living
Now that there's enough
Happiness to be found
Sharing time with our lives
Chorus
[Intro: Hell Razah]
One-two, one-two, girl you could hear me?
one-two, turn me up
[Verse 1: Hell Razah]
I've been a threat since Benetton Gazelles in Valleys
The Icon in graffiti in the Brooklyn Alley
Touch hearts of the Pharaohs in the Egypt Valley
My Engineer can't see me 'cause the booth is cloudy
Still rowdy even though we in BM's and Audis
Lookin like black Saudis in black Denalis
I'ma terrorist attack when I get on the track
If I'm ridin' shotgun, I need one in my lap
I adapt in any habitat, a BK desert rat
It's war, then we sendin' back bodies and gats
Flip the white flag, homey it get worst than Iraq
We know the CIA game was to frame us wit crack
So each bar's more dope, heroin in my pen
Got a ?Marvin? back robbin', head 'noddin again
Who you shit on to get on top could make it pop in the end
Who's the flop and what's hot got you locked in the Gym
Tell Jacob I spit Jewels I could drop 'em a Gem
And if he's lookin' for a Diamond I could hook 'em wit Timbs
[Hook: Timbo King] & (Hell Razah)

I'm raw like Kane, my lyrics are formed in solid rock
Spit it hotter than '86 on drug infested blocks
Last photo of 'Pac before his Beamer got shot
I'm the Queens, one man Supreme Team
Triple beam dream, microphone cream fiend
Top five dead or alive, I'm so amazin'
2-5 costra nostra, heart of this culture
The game ain't over
I'm the truce troop war reporter, legal life stick you
Against All Odds, not the ordinary shit you use to
I'm C-Murder before the life sentence
Predicate felons, homicide chasin' niggaz, hopin' over benches
[Hook: Timbo King]

[DJ scratches up "Ooh, it's time"]
[Chorus:]
Oh, yeah - Well the bell has rung because the time is here
Oh, yeah - We gotta switch it around and put the thang in gear
Oh, yeah - Not much is for sure, but this here is true
Oh, yeah - I gotta do it for me, but then I'll do it for you
Major attraction, trouble distraction
Scramble up my name and it still come action
Music's our number, dial to sue slumber
Open up your ears to the low tint of thunder
Creative Queens native, mixes are the Native
Want some fresh shit? Then we're correlative
Busta is ferocious, unflawed and precocious
Airin fools out 'cause my willy bodacious
Peoples don't blame me, shorties can't game me
Country Cherokee but the city here made me
Rock like coral, distinctive 'bout my orals
Got lil' grime and got lotta laurels
The rhythm stay bangin, my one-two thangin
Is exemplified by the comp left hangin
Percussion's our weapons, drums are Smith & Wesson's
Lyrics poppin off leaving deep impressions
[DJ scratches up "Ooh, it's time"]
[Chorus]
Yo, I feel what the beat does, people fuck with me 'cause
When the song end, I become what the beat was
Same thing as other, no need for cookie cutter
The bar gets raised, not your average old gutter
For that I hit a chin up, B, ya time been up
Would've came sooner but I overslept my get-up
Now let's get in the middle, girl I'll solve your riddle
'Cause we can be strong and protect against the brittle
If groupies need to see me, go and get the CD
I aerosol you all top to bottom like graffiti
Biz {? } lot and, dudes say I'm pardon
When you hear the music, thus begins the Mardi Gras and
Rhymes ain't the issue, that's how I'm gon' get you
Don't need a Billboard hit for me to +hit+ you
The clairvoyant micist, who ALWAYS come the tightest
Queens everywhere demostratin who the flyest
[Chorus 2:]
Oh, yeah - Well the bell has rung because the time is here
Mmm, mmm - We gotta change it around and put our thang in gear
Oh, yeah - Not much is for sure, but this thang is true
Mmm, mmm - Gotta do it for me and then I'll do it for you
Oh - Ohhh, gotta do it for me and then I'll do it for you
Oh - Yeah, gotta do it for me and then I'll do it for you
Oh...
[Intro: Leviathan]
Ah, West Coast, ah, the renaissance
It's the renaissance, strangers wit candy
Leviathan, Warcloud, Mantra, word
It's the renaissance ya'll
[Hook x4: Leviathan]
Those who were blessed in the garment
Shall be, shall be not reincarnated
[Leviathan:]
Yo it's the dynamo, body blow specialist, here to twist wrists
Kidnap ya life, take a hike and don't forget this
Broke, you bout to learn, hip hop's not always business
Cuz underground authentic linguistics, represent ships
That launch missiles at "Wannabeez" under seas
Victorious, P.A.C., crossbreeds
Who don't have a clue, stop rhymin' like you're brand new
Parallax, we see right through, nobody's fool
Unglue, you're molecules'll send you back together
I'm Leviathan, lickin' shots wit the strangler
We cliffhangers, unit bangers
Echo no Asian honey lemon, will throw drop full of nature
The revolution won't platinumized and televised
We third dimension strangers here for you to analyze
In this wilderness, of America-ca-ca
We carry heads and roll them back to bury the sucka
Cuz he deadly palm, shatter your dome and scatter your bones
You hear the tone dialin' you out, it's combat zone
[Chorus x2: Mantra]
Poison blood from the bay of pigs, catcher in the rye
Walkin' dogs to West Asia, kept them in a bind
Retreat to the sea cliff, strength versus weakness
People of the world, let my particles unite
[Warcloud:]
Aiyo, let the dead bury their dead, the wasteful son
You caught 'em wit a bucket of blood, down in Damascus
Eighty eight back flips, stack chips and write
Though eye is the organ of sight, I cracked it twice
Tripped to oblivious, slaughter you in the rut
While you worship what you know not what, your crew's snuff
I battle til my brain shuts off, the street's left you
A strange man kept you, he crept through a can of beans
Bone dust suffer, rap protein forever
And eat to reality, gun you down in a tragedy
Somethin' from the nightmare realm, abnormality
Snap your rib cage out your back, don't call the Warcloud
Red, white and blue werewolf, wit sleep technique
Bop you on your head hard, wit the last baseball
Autographed by Babe Ruth, devil's better respect God
Perplex odd, quote that was Para' mention you, injure you
Heavy old sword, that warm body will smother you
Jockeys in the rain, we rob you in living luxury
Them poison Adam eaters, come and try to defeat us
The famous old story of the Ace and his three kings
In the Parallax, I'll chop you all up in to stacks
Flap jack back, they froze a fifty two pickup
Crunchy shots burst the slump, wit bloody hick-ups
Battleground sound, Warcloud the dirty planter
Wu-Tang soldiers will buzz saw on you wit records
Password crept it, perplexed it by rap embargo
It's like cotton doll, bird feathers and marbles
Mineral bats, sharp water, save yourself, buckers
You can never buck us, I want you to try and touch us
[Chorus x2]
[Mantra:]
The stigma of a flower, pistol in a hair piece
A static symbol of a mind, that impeach
The legacy on the mound, he was known as Saint Tropez
Struck men out for the effect of oppressive ages
Unstable cages, radicals'll rush us in the classroom
They shoot off in the black boy jungle
Misty serenades, the bogarts'll cook
Pendulum foot, I was in, he didn't look
When Mantra broke out the window, bird became cuckoo
Flew over sea-saw, chiefs who come to greeet you
Villages concealed in the sounds of the vultures
Crashed on the streets, where my kids gotta eat
Lady vinegar, momma let the heart spill
Armor shade bias, catch your high tide crescents
Ran from Allah, free cypher for self banishment
Sun spot, rise of the apricot, catch
Twelve trot, understanding hell of happiness
Somebody told me that the Parallax were here
Left hands are diced, then writin' on Sheik punishment
Catcher in my name is in the straw hoods of Saigon
Nation of water comes down from hot places
Hard for critics to rate this, solid basement
Mechanize a thought when I walk, gather a witness
Recordin' ya'll shit, whether people's faces change
Like a scent on the brain, family portrait was hung
A livin' myth was taken, tunnel to be driven
And subterranean vessels, carry the sleepin' conscience
Took a train to market, get your hands out my pockets
[Bridge x3: Leviathan]
Aiyo, yo, reincarnated M.C.'s
Agree or disagree the style is restin' in peace
[Leviathan:]
Because...
[Hook x2]
[Outro: Leviathan]
I better redefine myself
And learn how to live again
Cause when the storm is gone
I see that this is not the end
The waves were strong
But it has cleansed my men
Someday we'll realize
We came out stronger in the end
Life will lift you up, life will bring you down
Swallow the pain, hang in and stay around
Someday again the sun will shine on you
So raise your head cause we will make it through
We shall all overcome
So wipe away your tears
In misery we were not born
So raise your head and face your fears
Under the surface looking up
Reaching for the lights
Bring back the days from nights
