WHAT COULD ALL THIS MEAN

 

YOU AND I HAVE SEEN

 

CHANGES

 

CHANGE IN YOU 

 

CHANGE IN ME

 

CHANGE THAT NO ONE WANTS

 

EXTERNALLY

 

 

IF ONLY WE COULD BREAK FREE

 

SWIM THE TIDE

 

BENEATH THE STARS

 

REACH THE OTHER SIDE WITH YOU

 

FIND OBSCURITY

 

SANCTITY IN THE TREES

 

PEACE 

 

IN A COLD MOUNTAIN STREAM 

 

THE PERFECT SUN

 

WE CAN DREAM

 

OR WE CAN BE

 

ALL THAT IS

 

A PLEASURE 

 

JUST TO SPEND EACH DAY

 

OUR OWN WAY

 

 

THE DAYS ARE SPINNING

 

 EVER FASTER

 

THE LIES CAUGHT WITHIN

 

I KNOW WHERE WE'RE GOING

 

WE'LL SOON FORGET

 

WHERE WE'VE BEEN

 

 

TOUCH THE RAINBOW

 

SEE THE EVENING GLOW

 

JUST YOU AND I

 

NOBODY HAS TO KNOW

 

JUST SLIP AWAY

 

INTO THE TALL TREES

 

PEACE

 

 IN A COLD MOUNTAIN STREAM 

ROOM TO REST AND DREAM

HOW MUCH IS TOO MUCH

I WOULD SAY IT'S TIME

IF WE COULD ONLY BREAK FREE

SWIM THE TIDE

BENEATH THE STARS

REACH THE OTHER SIDE

 

THE PERFECT SUN

 

 

 

 

 

 

SHE CAN MAKE YOU SMILE

 

SHE CAN MAKE YOU SMILE

I WATCHED THE STARS

 

FILL THE SKY

 

EACH ONE A PROMISE

 

A REMINDER WHY

 

LOVE IS ALL

 

SOME SHINE

 

WHILE OTHERS FALL

 

BUT STILL YOU'VE GOT TO TRY

 

REACHING OUT WHILE

 

LOVE IS PASSING BY

 

 YOU CAN'T GO ON THINKING

 

YOU DON'T NEED LOVE

 

IT'S ALL AROUND YOU

 

BELOW AND ABOVE

 

 

SHE'S ALL THAT AND MORE

 

SHE LOVES SO MUCH

 

YOU CAN'T IGNORE IT

 

SHE MOVES LIKE WATER

 

APPEARS LIKE AN ANGEL

 

WHEN YOU NEED HER MOST

 

SHE CAN MAKE YOU SMILE

 

EVEN WHEN YOUR

 

 AT YOUR WORST 

SHE DOESN'T DO SAD

HER SPIRITS CLEAR

HER CONSCIOUSNESS PURE

SHE'S CONFIDENT AND SURE 

SHE LIGHTS UP A ROOM

JUST ENOUGH TO SEE

ALL THE LOVE

SHE HOLDS IN HER HEART

SHE'S SWEET SHE'S RARE

SHE'S GOT NO TIME FOR HATE

SHE MAKES HER OWN WAY

DOESN'T BELIEVE IN FATE

SHE COULD WALK AWAY

TAKE HER LIGHT

SHINING LIKE THE SUN

 

 GOING DOWN

SWEET DELIGHT

SOMETHING YOU NEVER  

 

THOUGHT COULD BE

 NEVER WANT TO SEE

 

SHE IS THE REASON FOR

 

SHE GIVES LOVE

 

 A GOOD NAME

 

 WHO COULD BLAME ME

 

IF I TRIED

 

A REMINDER WHY

 

LOVE IS ALL

THE VEIL

 

 SLOWLY FELL AWAY

 

EXPOSED

 

 THE KIND OF DAY

 

WE'D HAVE

 

TRIPPING OVER SUN RAYS  

 

WATCHING ALL THE SAILS

 

RISE UP 

 

TO A FRACTURED 

 

BRUISED AND BLUE SKY

 

ALL THE CLOUDS RUNNING FAST

 

THE KIND OF DAY

 

 YOU WANT TO LAST

 

 

YOU LOOK RIGHT INTO HER EYES

 

 REALIZE SHE KNOWS 

 

WHAT YOUR THINKING

 

THE SPACE CLOSES UP BETWEEN

 

TAKE ME

RIGHT INSIDE

YOUR DREAM

MAKE IT SOMETHING

WE CAN'T FORGET

SOMEWHERE NEAR OR FAR

JUST YOU AND I

 

TASTED THE SUN 

 

ON YOUR NECK

 

THE RAIN UPON YOUR CHEEK

 

DRANK YOUR POTION

 

IT LEFT ME WEAK 

BUT I GOT STRONG 

WE LAUGHED SO LONG AGO

TRIPPING OVER SUN RAYS

FEELING THE DAY

AND IT'S SLIPPING AWAY

 

THE SUN IS SINKING

 

THE BLUE SKY

 

IS SHRINKING 

 

PUSHING THE COLOURS DOWN 

SQUEEZING THE LIGHT FROM TIME

THE SPACE CLOSES UP BETWEEN

WHO FOLLOWS WILL BE THERE

WAITING INSIDE YOUR DREAM

 

I KNOW FROM WHAT I'VE SEEN

 

YOU'LL BE THERE WITH ME

 

IN THE SOFTEST LIGHT

 

PUT YOUR HEAD BACK

 

CLOSE YOUR EYES 

DRIFT WITH ME

YOU REALIZE

LIGHT UP THIS DREAM

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

A Tide Turning

 

A TIDE TURNING

 

WRITTEN BY

WILDFLOWERS ALL AROUND ME

 

MY EYES ON THE SKY

 

WATCHING CLOUDS OF LACE

 

CHASE THE SUN RAYS 

 

TOO FAR TO LOOK AHEAD

 

TIME TO KILL INSTEAD

 

THAT I SURELY DID

 

 

SO MANY EMOTIONS   

 

A TIDE TURNING

 

CHANGING ME

 

A CALM SERENITY 

 

A FALSE SECURITY

 

THE SMILE THAT CAME

 

SO NATURALLY 

 

TAKEN AWAY SO SUDDENLY 

 

BUT I SEE ANOTHER SIDE

 

TO ALL THIS

 

IF ONLY I COULD WISH

 

IT ALL AWAY

 

GET A LITTLE CLARITY

 

YOU SELDOM GET BACK

 

WHAT YOU LOSE

 

DON'T ALWAYS GET TO CHOOSE

 

 

FEEL THE SUMMER SLIPPING AWAY

 

GLIMPSES OF A SKY TURNING GRAY

 

THE LEAVES HEADED FOR THE GROUND

 

THE HUSH BEGINS TO GROW

 

THE CROWDS THIN OUT AND GO

 

SCATTER LIKE THE LEAVES

 

A TIDE TURNING

 

CHANGING ME

 

SEND ME OUT INTO THE WORLD

 

SEARCHING FOR A DREAM

 

I'LL RECOGNIZE IT AS MY OWN

 

ONE I HAVE SEEN

 

 

WILDFLOWERS ALL AROUND ME

 

NOW SO FAR BACK IN TIME

 

A GHOST FROM THE PAST

 

DESTINED TO LAST

 

WOUND UP TO CAST

 

RIGHT THROUGH A TIDE TURNING

 

THE LAST OF THE SUN GOING DOWN

 

LIKE AN EMBER BURNING

 

SEE IT GLOW

 

BEFORE IT SINKS TOO LOW 

Change Goes On

 

CHANGE GOES ON

SILVER CLOUDS LINED THE SKY

 

CARS DRIVING SLOWLY BY

 

 ONE EYE ON THE SAILS ASEA

 

THEY SAY I WISH

 

THAT WAS ME

 

RIDING THE WAVES

 

 IN THE BREEZE 

 

TURNING WITH THE WORLD

 

INTO THE SUN

 

 

CHANGE GOES ON

 

IT'S NEVER DONE

 

LEAVE YOU THERE

 

 IN THE SAND 

 

THAT'S OKAY

 

IT'S WHAT YOU PLANNED

 

NOW YOU SEE 

 

WHAT YOU FOUND

 

YOU CAN'T PUT IT DOWN

 

YOU CAN'T LOOK AWAY

 

THERE'S ANOTHER WORLD

 

OUT THERE

 

THAT YOU'VE NEVER SEEN

 

YOU HAVE TO ADMIT ITS BEEN

 

LIKE SOMETHING HIDING

 

IN PLAIN SIGHT

 

 

IF YOU THINK YOU MIGHT LEARN

 

TO LIKE IT IN TIME

 

BETTER GET YOURSELF IN LINE

 

THEY SAY I WISH THAT WAS ME

 

RIDING THE WAVES

 

IN THE BREEZE

 

TURNING WITH THE WORLD

 

INTO THE SUN

 

CHANGE GOES ON

 

IT'S NEVER DONE

 

ARE THE DAYS LONGER

 

THAN THE NIGHTS

 

IF YOU HAVE TO ASK

 

YOU JUST MIGHT KNOW

 

YOU CAN'T STAY

 

BUT YOU CAN'T BRING

 

 YOURSELF TO GO 

 

 

CHASING EMOTIONS AND DREAMS

 

WAITING FOR THE CHANGE

 

IT BRINGS

 

THE WAVES HAVE CALMED DOWN

 

AS THEY KISS THE SHORE

 

THE SUNS GOING DOWN

 

SPILLING COLOURS INTO THE SKY 

YOU ONLY HAVE TO ASK

YOURSELF WHY

SOMEHOW THE ANSWER MIGHT

TAKE YOU BY SURPRISE

CHANGE GOES ON

IT'S NEVER DONE

DOESN'T MATTER WHO YOU ARE

IT'S YOUR LOSS OR GAIN

NEVER THE SAME

 

 

Sacred Ground

 

SACRED GROUND

I FOUND A PLACE I CAN GO

 

THERE NO ONE CAN FIND ME

 

MOST TIMES THERE'S NO

 

LIVING SOUL IN SIGHT

 

AT ANY GIVEN TIME I MIGHT

 

FIND IT HARD TO LEAVE

 

 

SACRED GROUND

 

 THE CLOUDS FLY OVERHEAD 

 

HIGH UP ON A HILL

 

A LITTLE CHILL

 

BLOWING OFF THE MOUNTAINS

 

AND STILL THE COMFORT THAT I FIND

 

BRINGS ME WARMTH

 

THE SILENCE ALMOST EERIE

 

THE SECLUSION MAKES YOU FEEL

 

ALTOGETHER APART

 

A PLACE TO FINISH

 

A PLACE TO START

 

 

YOU ONLY TAKE AWAY

 

WHAT YOU NEVER BROUGHT

 

LEAVES YOU SOMEWHERE

 

DEEP IN THOUGHT

 

UNTIL THE PEACE

 

 GETS ALL THE WAY INSIDE 

 

 

I'M NOT MYSELF I'M CHANGING

 

THE SUN BLESSES THE MOMENTS

 

BETWEEN PASSING CLOUDS

 

IT CAME TO ME 

 

ALL AT ONCE

 

I WAS FREE ONCE AGAIN

 

SEEMS LIKE A GOOD PLACE

 

TO START AND END

 

KICK START KICK START

 

THE PUSH I NEED TO THINK

 

HERE ITS BLACK AND WHITE

 

UNTIL YOU COME OUT

 

 THE OTHER SIDE 

 

 

AT ANY GIVEN TIME

 

I MIGHT FIND IT HARD TO LEAVE

 

SACRED GROUND

 

THE SUN GOING DOWN

 

AND I'M MAKING TRACKS

 

DOWN MYSELF

 

SEE HOW THE SKY

 

JUST FALLS ON THE HILL

 

SEEMS LIKE

 

TIME STANDS STILL
