"English Sunset"

"English Sunset"



I want to ride the range
Across those skies of black
I want to see for myself
And see me coming back
And when I've gone the distance
I'll be making tracks
For an English sunset.

We're on a runaway train
Rolling down the track
And where it's taking us to
Who knows where it's at
But if we hold together
We can make it back
For an English sunset
We want an English sunset.

I feel the rhythm of the earth
In my soul tonight
May it never fade away
And I've decided I can live
With humility
And the sad decay
'Cos that's the English way.

We keep the faith alive
In everything we do
And at the end of the road
We still keep coming through
And though it's sad and sorry
What else can we do
It's an English sunset
An English sunset.

I feel the rhythm of the earth
In my soul tonight
May it never fade away
And I've decided they can wait
For the requiem
We take it day by day
'Cos that's the English way
I saw the English sunset.

"Eternity Road"

"Eternity Road"



Hark listen here he comes
Hark listen here he comes
Turning, spinning, catherine wheeling
For ever changing
There's no beginning
Speeding through a charcoal sky
Observe the truth we cannot hide

Travelling eternity road
What will you find there?
Carrying your heavy load
Searching to find a piece of mind.

You'll see us all around
You'll see us all around
Turning, spinning, catherine wheeling
For ever changing
There's no beginning
You're so very far from home
And so very much alone

Travelling eternity road
What will you find there?
Carrying your heavy load
Searching to find a piece of mind.

Travelling eternity road
What will you find there?
Carrying your heavy load
Searching to find a piece of mind.

"Evening: The Sunset"

"Evening: The Sunset"



When the sun goes down,
And the clouds all frown,
Night has begun for the sunset.

See it with your eyes;
Earth re-energized
By the sun's rays every day.
Take a look out there,
Planets everywhere.

When the sun goes down,
And the clouds all frown,
Night has begun for the sunset.

Shadows on the ground;
Never make a sound,
Fading away in the sunset.
Night has now become
Day for everyone.

I can see it all
From this great height.
I can feel the sun
Slipping out of sight;
And the world still goes on
Through the night.

"Evening: Twilight Time"

"Evening: Twilight Time"



Twilight Time, to dream awhile
In veils of deepening blue
As fantasy strides over colorful skies
Of form disappearing from view

In twilight time, dream with me awhile

A nightingale plays a dark mellow phrase
Of notes that are rich and so true
An aerial display by the firefly brigade
Dancing to tunes no one knew

In twilight time, dream with me awhile
In twilight time, dream with me awhile

Building castles in the air
Whistling to the wind
As nature bows down her head
See what tomorrow brings

Twilight time, dream with me awhile

Bats take to wing, like puppets on string
Prancing through cool evening air
In a sightless glide, no reason to hide
Away from the sun's blinding stare

In twilight time, dream with me awhile
In twilight time, dream with me awhile

"Everyday"

"Everyday"



Everyday someone finds a love, they say
And I know it will be okay

Yeah, love will come as it does to everyone
'Though I know it won't be too easy
Yeah, love means together then they throw it away
Throw it away is what they do everyday

But when love comes, we'll have fun
It's run, run, run, run, run

Everyday someone finds a love, they say
And I know it will be okay

Yeah, love will come as it does to everyone
Though I know it won't be too easy
Yes, when love comes, love comes and goes within a day
So, when it comes to me, I'm gonna make sure it stays

Everyday

"Eyes Of A Child (part 1)"

"Eyes Of A Child (part 1)"



Listen, hear the sound
The child awakes
Wonder all around
The child awakes
Now in his life
He never must be lost
No thoughts must deceive him
In life he must trust

With the eyes of a child
You must come out and see
That your world's spinning 'round
And through life you will be
A small part
Of a hope
Of a love
That exists
In the eyes of a child you will see

Earth falls far away
New life awaits
Time it has no day
New life awaits
Here is your dream
And now how does it feel?
No words will go with you
And now what is real?

With the eyes of a child
You must come out and see
That your world's spinning 'round
And through life you will be
A small part
Of a hope
Of a love
That exists
In the eyes of a child you will see

"Eyes Of A Child (part 2)"

"Eyes Of A Child (part 2)"



I'm gonna sit and watch the web
That you will build this day
Will it be a thread of love you weave
Is yours too short away
Then everything will be as you will see in the light

In the eyes of the child
You must come out and see
That your world's spinning 'round
And through life you will be
A small part
Of a hope
Of a love
That exists
In the eyes of a child you will see

In the eyes of the child
You must come out and see...

"Floating"

"Floating"



Floating free as a bird
Sixty foot leaps it's so absurd
From up here you should see the view
Such a lot of space for me and you

Oh you'd like it
Gliding around get your feet off the ground
Oh you'd like it
Do as you please with so much ease

Now I know how it feels
To have wings on my heels
To take a stroll among the stars
Get a close look at planet Mars

Oh you'd like it
Gliding around get your feet off the ground
Oh you'd like it
Do as you please with so much ease

Bouncing about on the moon
Guess you'll all be up here soon
The candy stores they'll be brand new
And you'll buy a rock with the moon right through

Oh you'd like it
Gliding around get your feet off the ground
Oh you'd like it
Do as you please with so much ease

Come fly...
Come fly...
Come fly...

"Fly Me High"

"Fly Me High"



I'm up to the eyes n' I love everyone
Today I could cry I could reach for the sun
I'm walking on air 'n' I'm here 'n' I'm there
I travel the sky but for what I don't care

Fly me straight and fly me high
Fly me straight and fly me high

I'm up 'n' I'm down 'n' I'm gone, I'm around
I'm driving along with no wheels on the ground
Hang on to me tight 'cause it doesn't last long
A few hours more and it'll be gone

Fly me straight and fly me high
Fly me straight and fly me high

I leave you behind on the streets in the gloom
I'm up here alone and there's plenty of room
You won't see me, I'll see you, I'm too fast
Whoops! Here I come, Now I'm gone. Now I'm past

Fly me straight and fly me high
Fly me straight and fly me high

I'm up to the eyes and I love ev'ryone
Today I could cry I could reach for the sun
I'm walking on air 'n' I'm here 'n' I'm there
I travel the sky but for what I don't care

Fly me straight and fly me high
Fly me straight and fly me high

"Foolish Love"

"Foolish Love"



We ran through the summer fields
Between the earth and sky
Little did we realise
We were flying you and I.

We sang to the stars above
We praised the earth below
You fell into my arms that night
And I've never let you go.

It was beautiful, glorious
We were riding on a wave
With foolish hearts, and foolish love
We would give ourselves away.

Remember how we cried out loud
Heard angry voices shout
I love you as I loved you then
No danger and no doubt.

It was beautiful, glorious
We were riding on a wave
With foolish hearts, and foolish love
We would give ourselves away.

And now as we look behind
To see the road of life
Turning to the ones we love
Salvation is in sight.

'Cos it was beautiful, glorious
We were riding on a wave
With foolish hearts, and foolish love
We would give ourselves away.

Remember how we cried out loud
Heard angry voices shout
I love you as I loved you then
No danger and no doubt.
