Zodiac

You talked of taking things in hand
You always had such detailed plans
Intentions sinking in the sand
You should have grasped the outstretched hand

And do you really think it’s fate
You open up the darkened gate
To find what’s hidden deep behind
But could you face what you might find

And do you really think it’s right
To only want to see the light
When we all need to fear the dark
Will you now ignite that spark

And do you really think it’s fate
You open up the darkened gate
To find what’s hidden deep behind
But could you face what’s hidden by your mind

And should we always question what we know
Isn’t knowledge what we need to grow
And in time all will be revealed
But too late for all of this to be healed

And do you really think it’s right
To keep the dark out with the light
As we stand to fight our fight
Do we know what’s wrong from right

And do you really think it’s fate
You open up the darkened gate
To find what’s hidden deep behind
But could you face what’s hidden in your mind

Slow Down

You left your place, lost your space, lost your mind
You’ve gone into freefall
In a dive, facing down, spinning round
There’s so much to live for

Life is moving too fast now, you’ve gotta slow down
Your candles burning too fast, boy, you’d better slow down

Life’s a race, you speed through bends You jump red lights,
You love and dance with danger
Your brakes don’t work but you don’t care You’ve even turbo charged the words to your prayers

Life is moving too fast now, you’ve gotta slow down
Your candles burning too fast, boy, you’d better slow down (but you just can’t slow down)
Time is moving too fast now you’ve gotta slow down
Life is moving too fast boy, you’d better slow down

No time to sit to stand and stare You cannot bring yourself to share what you have You’ve lost your faith in the human race And life’s become a human race for you, boy

Life is moving too fast now, you’ve gotta slow down
Your candles burning too fast, boy, you’d better slow down
Time is moving too fast now you’ve gotta slow down
Life is moving too fast boy, you’d better slow down

Time is moving too fast now you’ve gotta slow down
Life is moving too fast boy, you’d better slow down
(but you just can’t slow down)

Reunion

Take my hand
Walk with me
Feed me your full mind
Free your heart to walk with me again

So long that you were gone
So much has changed since then
But we can be just as it was before you went away

Take my hand
Walk with me
Feed me your weary mind
And free your heart to be in my loving arms

You have changed since you’ve been gone
It doesn’t mean that we were wrong
You still belong

Take my hand
Walk with me
Feed me your full mind
Free your heart to love with me again

The years ticked so slowly by
I thought of you each hour
And now you’re back I just hope and pray you’ll stay right here with me

Take my hand
Dance with me
I’ll feed you my full heart
So you can live and find love with me

Aqua

The past is known to us
The future remains closed
And through the past we try to see
What the future holds for us
And we think and we plan and we act

But things still stall, all can fall
We strive for the heights of perfection and then accept less
So much less
So much less

The river flows beneath the bridge on which you stand
The river twists and turns before the journeys end
And so into the sea the water finally flows
To meet the ocean deep whose depths you don’t yet know

And the water always flows on and on through time
From rain and storms and snow
Through day and night it flows
And you will go from night into the clear bright light
And then you will know it’s not what the future holds
Just walk into the light

And when the journey’s finally done
And you look back at where you’ve been
Through the things you’ve lived and learned
You may find some peace within

And you danced and you played and you worked, and you gave your all
You gave your all

And you laughed and you cried and you sang, and made life full
Oh so full
Oh so full

And you move with the undertow and tides
Your hopes and dreams all ebb and flow with time
And when all’s said and done you balance all the flows
You hope the good times win over those that drag below

And the water always flows on and on through time
From rain and storms and snow
Through day and night it flows
And you will go from night into the clear bright light
And then you will know it’s not what the future holds You’ve walked into the light

Next Embrace

I know that I should be more open
I know that I should say to you
The things I feel but leave unspoken
It’s time to say to say these things to you
You are the purpose of my being
To you no journey is in vain
My soul is dry without you near me
A wilting flower without rain

I hear your voice
I see your face
I wait for our next embrace

And if ever we are parted
These words of love I give to you
All the world’s diamonds, gold and rubies
I’d change for one more day with you
My love for you is never ending
Never sick, never old, no question why
And in my heart there is a yearning
For you to know my love won’t die

I hear your voice
I see your face
I wait for our next embrace
I hear your voice
I see your face
And now I am waiting for our next embrace
For our next embrace

Stand Up (Stay Strong)

Stand up, drive on, move up, stay strong
Rise up, as one, our bond is so strong

The ends in sight, the winning line is nearing
Our focus must stay clear and true
No doubts, we’ll raise our hearts and minds together
We can push on through

The time is now, we’ve made it this far
The time is now, it’s written in the stars
Lift up your heart and reach for the sky
The time is now, we’re ready for take-off
We’re ready to fly so high

Stand up, drive on, move up, stay strong
Rise up, as one, our bond is so strong

The time is right, our hearts and minds are racing
Our hopes are soaring through the roof
That we can win we’ve never ever been more certain
We’ll stay on course and make it through

The time is now, we’ve all come so far
The time is now, it’s told in the stars
Lift up your heart and reach for the sky,
The time is now, we’re ready for take-off
We’re gonna fly so high

Stand up, drive on, move up, stay strong
Rise up, as one, our bond is so strong

Stand up, drive on, move up, stay strong
Rise up, as one, our bond is so strong

We can fly so high

You Are The Stars

You are the thousand winds that blow
You are the diamond glints on snow
You are sunlight on ripened grain
You are the gentle autumn rain

When I awaken in the morning’s hush
You are the swift uplifting rush
Of silent birds in circled flight
You are the stars that shine at night

You are the sunlight that lights my day
You are the bright lit torch that lights the way
You are the river running clean
You are my everlasting dream

When I awaken in the morning’s hush
You are the swift uplifting rush
Of silent birds in circled flight
You are the stars that shine at night

(Some words borrowed from Elizabeth Frye Poem ‘Do Not Stand At My Grave and Weep’)

Hello

Strolling, just rolling down with the breeze
Rolling, just strolling by young and free
You smiled, said hello, what’s the deal
I said let’s go down town have a beer, and then we’ll see

Tonight’s a good night, it’s our time
We’ll laugh and we can dance the night away
These days are good days, such fun times
We’ll dance until the break of day

We talked and sat and chilled having fun
People walked slowly by in the sun
The music was drifting up on the breeze
We said let’s stay out all night cos we’re free, so young and free

Tonight’s a good night, it’s our time
We’ll laugh and we can dance the night away
These days are good days, such fun times
We’ll dance until the break of day

Tonight’s a good night, it’s our time
We’ll laugh and we can dance the night away
These days are good days, such fun times
We’ll dance until the break of day

We really hope and dream these days will never end
To live so happy and free
We hope this never ends
Never ends

Tonight’s a good night, it’s our time
We’ll laugh and we can dance the night away
These days are good days, such fun times
We’ll dance until the break of day Until the break of day

Tonight’s a good night, it’s our time
We’ll laugh and we can dance the night away
These days are good days, such fun times
We’ll dance until the break of day
Until the break of day
The break of day, the break of day
We’ll dance until the break of day
We’ll dance until the break of day

Virtuous Circle

Standing tall on the edge of time
Years fade as we grow wise
All that was and all there’ll ever be
You stand in hope and you will see

So hold my hand, look into my eyes
Don’t think it through or it will pass you by
Don’t take a breath, don’t take a moment’s pause
You must let go so that you can be free to move on

Your mind is racing and the feelings grow strong from within
The light is shining and the drive for purpose pulls you in

Holding back but time is racing by
The only limit is the big blue sky
Great horizon once so far is near
And now it’s here you need to lose your fear

So take your time, you must build belief
You’ll never miss where you’ve never been
Holding true to your worthy cause
It’s the journey not the winning that builds your worth

Your mind is racing and the feelings grow strong from within
The light is shining and the drive for purpose pulls you in
They watch and wonder at the burning flame that’s in your eyes
The need for warmth and the need for love is your desire

Standing tall on the edge of time, years have faded as we grew wise
All that was and all there’ll ever be, looking back will you like what see?

Rain

Let the rain fall on your skin
Feel it wash you clean
Cleansing all within
To stand beneath the storm

Growing from within
It’s where it all begins

Hold your head up high
Looking to the sky
The rain is falling down

Beating on the ground
The beating of your heart
Love will plays it’s part

With hearts so full of song
We shall sing along
To the rhythm of the Earth

To cleanse the earth this rain
Must fall and fall again
To satisfy it’s thirst

It’s where it all begins

Just let it all begin

Complete

Hearing, your lovely voice I’m hearing
I hope the time is nearing
That I can be with you

Growing, my love for you is growing
My loneliness is showing
I need to be with you

And no one wants to be alone
The light is bright so I can find my way back home
To rest these weary feet
Lay in your gentle arms and feel complete

Aching, my weary heart is aching
My tired mind is racing
I need a place to hide

Holding, my thoughts of you I’m holding
So long it seems I’m waiting
To be back at your side

And no one wants to be alone
The light is bright so I can find my way back home
To rest these weary feet
Lay in your gentle arms and feel complete
And feel complete

And no one wants to be alone
The light is bright so I can find my way back home
To rest these weary feet
Lay in your gentle arms and feel complete
And feel complete
And feel complete
