A SONG
I would like to write a song
That is so vibrant and so intimate
That the earth would adopt it
As if it had sprung like the stream
From the land's memory
As if no one had written it but life itself
And my song would travel along
From bird to wing, to tree
To breeze to heart to breath to song
Because a song belongs to everyone
Like the spring

MY FACE IN THE RAIN
My face in the rain
I walk all alone
It's Sunday time is slow
I'm happy that is all I know
My face into the sun
My life is my own
It's Sunday time is slow
I am happy that is all I know [interlude]

My thoughts in the rain
I walk all alone
It's Sunday time is slow
I am happy that is all I know

LET IT HAPPEN
Let it happen
Honey don't you live on the edge of your life
Let it happen
Honey don't you live on the edge of a sigh
Let it happen
Honey don't you live on the edge of a smile
Let it happen
Honey don't you live on the edge of your time
Baby all you got to do
Is let the rythm get to you

Baby all you got to do
Is let the rythm get to you

Let it happen
Honey take a ride on the wheel of life
Let it happen
Open up your heart to the wheel of life
Let it happen
You can put your trust to the wheel of life
Let it happen
Throw away your fear on the wheel of life
Baby all you got to do
Is let the rythm get to you
Baby all you got to do
Is let the rythm get to you

[interlude]

Let it happen
All you need is love on the wheel of life Let it happen
All you need is love on the wheel of life

Let it happen
All you need is love on the wheel of life
Let it happen
All you need is love on the wheel of life

Baby all you got to do
Is let the rythm get to you

Let it happen
All you need is love on the wheel of life

All you need is love on the wheel of life

HE-O
He-o he came walking down my street
He-o and he stopped in front of my door
He-o and he knocked on the door a long while
He-o then he turned and he walked away
He-o then he turned and he walked away
He-o and he never came back again
He-o I wasn't at home that day
He-o and I never found out that he came

[interlude]
He-o he came walking down my street
He-o and he stopped in front of my door
He-o and he knocked on the door a long while
He-o then he turned and he walked away
He-o then he turned and he walked away
He-o and he never came back again
He-o I wasn't at home that day
He-o and I never found out that he came

WE WERE ALL UPROOTED
We were all uprooted
The earth was stolen from beneath our feet
We became a Diaspora
An unnamed nation of bastards
We channeled our roots to the pulse of light
deep within the galaxies of our mind
Our breath was the sky
Our dreams were water
We claimed the wilderness
We recognized each other

THE LITTLE FETE
"I take a bottle of wine and I go drink it among the flowers.
We are allways three ... counting my shadow and my friend the shimmering moon
Happily the moon knows nothing of drinking, and my shadow is never thirsty
When I sing, the moon listens to me in silence. When I dance, my shadow dances too.
After all festivities the guests must depart. This sadness I do not know.
When I go home, the moon goes with me and my shadow follows me"

JERUSALEM
And did those feet in ancient time
walk upon England's mountains green?
And was the Holy Lamb of God
on England's pleasant pastures seen?
And did the Countenance Divine
shine forth upon our clouded hills?
And was Jerusalem builded here
among those dark Satanic mills?
Bring me my bow of burning gold!
Bring me my arrows of desire!
Bring me my spear: O clouds unfold!
Bring me my Chariots of Fire!
I will not cease from metal fight;
nor shall my sword sleep in my hand
till we have built Jerusalem
in England's green and pleasant land.

ONE MORE KISS DEAR
one more kiss, dear
One more sigh
Only this, dear
It's goodbye
For our love is such pain
And such pleasure
And I'll treasure till I die
So for now, dear
Aurevoir, madame

But I'm how-d'ye, not farewell
For in time we may have a love's glory
Our love story to tell

Just as every autumn
Leaves fall from the tree
Tumble to the ground and die
So in the springtime
Like sweet memories
They will return as will I
Like the sun, dear
Upon high
We'll return, dear
To the sky
And we'll banish the pain and the sorrow
Until tomorrow goodbye
one more kiss, dear
One more sigh
Only this, dear
Is goodbye
For our love is such passion
And such pleasure
And I'll treasure till I die

Like the sun, dear
Upon high
We'll return, dear
To the sky
And we'll banish the pain and the sorrow
Until tomorrow goodbye

TWILIGHT
[female voice:]
Hi ga Kureru
Sore wa Toki no Mahou
Asu Onaji Toki
Mata Chigau Mahou
Sore wa Iro ga Kaori ni
Kaori ga Iro ni Kawaru Toki
Soshite Kage wa Kagirinai
Ao ni Tokeru
The day falls into the twilight.
It is a magic of time.
The same time tommorrow,
there'll be another magic.
It is when colors turn to flavors,
and flavors turn to colors.
And it is when
shadows melt into deep blue....

COME TO ME
Come to me
While I'm sleeping
So their wagging tongues
Might not find you, my love

All the while
They lie down
[I'll let a so sweet]
For I'll die for my love

So stop this night so strong
That I will remember
And have it ever after

Come to me
While I'm sleeping
So their wagging tongues
Might not find you, my love
[interlude]

Come to me
End my dreaming
So their wagging tongues
Might not find you, my love

'Round the corner
Back of hands
They'll still be talking
Whether or not we'd ever
Whether we'd ever, my love

ASK THE MOUNTAINS
Don't come after
Don't come after
Don't come after

Come
Come
Come
Come

Don't come after
Don't come after
Please don't follow me along
When you read this I'll be gone

Ask the mountains
Springs and fountains
Why couldn't this go on?
Couldn't our happiness go on?
Ask the sun that lightens up the sky
When the night gives in, to tell you why

Ask the mountains
Wild woods, highlands
Ask the green in the woods and the trees
The cold breeze coming in from the sea
Springs and fountains
Ask the mountains
Springs and fountains
Ask the mountains

Springs and fountains
Ask the mountains

Ask the sun that lightens up the sky
When the night gives in, to tell you why

Tell the mountains
Springs and fountains

Why couldn't this go on?
Couldn't our happiness go on?
