2. Would You Like?

(top)

Would you like to fly

around the world?

across the ocean?

above the land?

would you like to see

the stars in heaven over me?

Would you like?

Would you like to fly

around the sun?

Sailing the waves

of this space?

Would you like to be

among the stars over me?

Movement Evolution

 

Youthful Dreams act 1

(top)

Take me back to yesterday

to a time when I was young.

I’d step right off this spinning world

and use my mind to sail the seas

The sea of stars

so far in dreams to leave.

A simple kind of entity

drifting near the sun

I move myself from star to star

the planetary run.

Run to see

feel the need to breath

Once in a lifetime waiting for something

a shoulder to cry on

a world to die on.

(top)

 

Movement Evolution

Exit Out act 2

 

(top)

 

Exit out

of the confusion

in your life

through the channels of mind and imagination

the world is yours for complete creation and wonder.

So you’ve fallen from you time

this space of fame

look at you without a name

clear your head stop screaming out the sound.

hear the echoes of energy

in yourself you can be found inside

exit through.

Do you fear the steps behind

do you fear the hidden path

One way against the signs

quicken the pace, the speed of light.

 

Youthful Dreams act 3

Call upon the night

for tomorrow bring me light

look upon creation

to see us through the night.

 

Exit Out act 4

(top)

Open your eyes the worlds around you

stretch your mind beyond

you can’t stay down.

Open your eyes the worlds around you

stretch your mind beyond

you can’t stay down.

I’ll open my eyes

the worlds around me

I’ll stretch my mind beyond YOU

I can’t stay down.

There’s a space between us

rise above and observe

for you and I are just a mystery in this life.

 

 

Youthful Dreams reprise

 

(top)

Call upon the night

for tomorrow bring me light

look upon creation

to see us through the night.

Take me back to yesterday

to a time when I was young.

I cling right to my youthful dreams

and finish what I’d begun.

Call upon the night

for tomorrow bring me light

look upon creation

to see us through the night.

 

 

Garden Of Circles

 

Instrumental

Million Memories

(top)

Winters coming and I don’t believe we will survive.

mother nature turning her head away in disguise.

Take my hand you’ll never need again to walk in fear

over all the knowledge and mysteries you can’t understand.

You are the only one left beside me now

will we ever know who we are.

Million memories passing by with a blink of an eye

you don’t know what tomorrow brings

except the fading thoughts of what you used to be.

Traveler of Space and Time

Hear It!

(top)

Calmness settles in on the

on the rolling hills

the layers of fog

obscure the valleys below

I cannot feel the cold or the taste of the seasons

Peace is everything

within and around

but for a moment

nothing is in need

here I cannot stay, the sky is magical

the rivers are rushing away

I want them, yes I need to see them.

There’s a presence very near

this life is real

the pain and fear begins

the suffering of those lesser men

surfacing from the peace

I am angered with his rage

no longer do I hear, they’ve already gone.

Suddenly I can fly

Remember the words of a wise man

control is everything

to the beings with minds

and this traveler of space and time.

Awaken the children from their innocent sleep

from that which is unknown

to the farmers of this land.

They’re not concerned

with the traveling man.

Every cycle of the sun and moon

Brings security to these humble sheep.

Yesterday as today has been observed

the cultures are rushing away

I want them, yes I need to see them.

I can not push myself

to test the truths

no longer do I hear

the cultures they’ve already gone.

Suddenly I can fly

Remember the words of a wise man

control is everything

to the beings with minds

and this traveler of space and time

Dream Time

(top)

In this Life…

You will fall around the world.

In this Life…

I will fall for you.

In this life…

I will be afraid.

In this life…

I will be there to save.

I am here in this life

Naked to the eyes within you sight.

I stand before you now

Waiting for this moment to arrive.

Dream time…

Across the world in love.

Dream time across the world

And we don’t know what we should not believe.

As seen from the other side,

I don’t know if we should sleep tonight.

I’ve been trying to speak to you

From a place far away.

The sounds would echo

Of unheard emotions

Of you and me in another time.

I’ve been trying to speak to you

A secret life within you.

I just wanted a friend of mine

To show me what is life.

As it darkens around you

You must choose what is life.

Believe inside a hope among the scenes

And where we place ourselves

In the forest among the trees.

Keep the fight of the songs we already have

Illusion of losing

Before we began to dance.

Dream time across the world in love.

In this life…

I will search for you.

In this life…

Will you search for me.

Dream time across the world

And we don’t know what we should not believe.

As seen from the other side,

I don’t know if we should sleep tonight.

Dream time across the world in Love.

Field, River, Tree.

 

(top)

Traveling far in my dreams.

Soaring high above the land.

There 's no limit to my sight.

Watching the fools sense of light.

You were there reaching out for me.

Standing in the field with the river and tree.

I come to you hearing no sound.

Fallen I've lost sight of the ground.

I woke to changed reality

A cold feeling inside.

This fear of a woman

Approaching in silent steps.

I knew she would speak to me

breaking my fall.

But I don't hear….

She drifted away in her sleep

There was no time to wait for you.

Believe she was in a peaceful place

the river and tree holding life.

Don't say these words to me

She hasn't gone far from me

She's standing in the field with the river and tree.

(sung in the mind of the listener)

A gathering of broken hearts

releasing her soul from this world

but I don't hear the words.

Traveling far in my dreams again

Searching for the promised land.

Take me to the field

The river and tree holding life.

Don't say these words to me

She hasn't gone far from me

She's standing in the field with the river and tree.

As Light

Hear It!

(top)

I cannot seem to think of anything real.

What is it be fore my eyes?

Does it reach far beyond?

All I know is to dream.

As the light from a single star,

(All my life has been tried)

Finds it’s way through space and time.

(mysteries and haunting spirits)

The passage of life slows

(It’s taken me out of control)

To the state of drifting thoughts

(Spinning confusion, is anything real)

My eyes are closed

Hiding in this secret place.

I’m fighting not to go,

Rush away my memories.

These stars and planets of different ways and names

Racing into blackness

Traveling further than ever before.

It’s passing to fast for me to see,

Everything I feel I’m losing.

I’m lost in years from my home.

Words and thoughts, Ideas and dreams.

I can’t hold on to anything.

It’s too much to take into reason..
