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 |

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 |

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 |

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 flow Thinking 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 ... |

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 |

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 |

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 unspoken There 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 |

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 |

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 way No 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 |

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 |

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 |

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 out His 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 |

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 *Repeat |

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 *Repeat |

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 you Ooh 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 |
