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
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
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

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 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
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 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
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 through
Man 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
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 stand
[Chorus]
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
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 on
When 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
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 Clear your mind maybe you will find That the past is still turning Circles sway echo yesterday Ashes burning ashes burning Colours 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 Clear your mind maybe you will find That the past is still turning Circles sway echo yesterday Ashes burning ashes burning
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
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 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
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
*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 giving
Come 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 (2x)
See the carpet of the sun See the carpet of the sun See the carpet of the sun See the carpet of the sun
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 reality
La 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
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 brain
Run 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
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
*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 sight
Softly 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
*Repeat
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
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 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?
*Repeat
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
*Repeat
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
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
*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
The vultures fly high They circle over us all The lonely sigh I'll take your hand if you fall
