Lyrics

1.
State of Independence
State of life, may I live, may I love
Coming out of the sky I name me a name
Coming up silver word for what it is
It is the very nature of the sound of the game

Siamese, Indonese to Tibet
Treat the life as a game if you please
Coming up Caribbean sense of freedom
Derives from a mediative state

Moving on, believe that's it
Call it magic Third World
It is, I only guessed it
Shah blam ee dee
Shah blam ee dah

Shot to the soul
The flame of Aura'ladin
The essence of the word
The state of independence

Sound like a signal from you
Bring me to meet your sound
And I will bring you to my heart

Love like a signal you call
Touching my body, my soul
Bring to me, you to meet me here
Home be the temple of your heart
Home be the body of your love
Just like holy water to my lips

Yes, I do know how I survive
Yes, I do know why I'm alive
To love and be with you
Day by day by day by day

Say yea yea yea yo
Yea yea yea yo
Be the sound of higher than today

Time again it is said we will hear
We will see it all in this wisdom here
This truth will abound the land
The state of independence shall be
2.
Shaker Loops
Look in to the windward
Chance would be there
Circle the skies
Circles in the corn
Circles in the spiral of our eyes

Where will we be
Where in heaven is love?

Look into the first light
Caught in the moon
Singing with the changes
Dancing then making us sigh

Who the first to see them
Patterns of the memory?
Asking us to wonder
Asking us to listen
Where are we now?

The earth is new
The world is clear
The earth is ready
Making us hear
The world is new
the Earth is clear
The earth is ready
Making us hear

Can you believe the music
Can you believe the passion
Can you believe the healing
Bringing us the messages?

Positive the reason
We see the circles
Part of our memory
Part understanding

Messages of other worlds
Coming through in mysteries

See in the world
It is the word
It is the world

Light the mist
Light the kiss
Light the fire
Light the sun
Light the mist
Light the kiss
Light the fire
Light the soul

Like a message has come to the earth
Be the earthfield and see the circles
Hear the patterns they're singing to you
Hear the patterns they're bringing to you

Like a message has come to the earth

Hearts
Hearing, talking, yes I love you

Set your heart, sail along the river
Look around as you drift downstream
Pouring souls into the ocean
Take account of all you've seen

One people together, freedom for today
So easy the future, so see the children's way
Love me, teach me, know me

One people together, freedom for today
Tomorrow forever, so see the people's way

Many moons cascade one river
They light from side to side
As we cross in close proximity
LIke rivers our hearts entwine
Howe we talk, how we teach our children
How we move, we direct our eyes
Like senses tuned discovery
As and as when our hearts decide
Be ready now, be ye circle
Be the central force ye life
As the game extends the cycle
Be ready to move

One heart's for love, one's for giving
Sailing down the river
Two hearts are better than one
Throwing out a line
I'm hearing it, I'm living it
I believe in it, I'm loving it
Sharing in our fortunes
Two hearts are better than one
In and out of time

As we flow down life's rivers
I see the stars glow one by one
All angels of the magic constellation
Be singing us now

The Kiss
How you gonna live through the dreams that you think about
How you gonna leave them behind?
And how you gonna search for the things that will help you
Through the end of time?

All you need to think of is hope and the good in love
And all that surrouns seems to hustle and bustle you
When you need to stay by my side
In this time of life

How you gonna know if it's love in a modern way
How you gonna reach the high you need?
How we gonna dream about the many things we think about
How we gonna let it be?

Oh! but I know you are mine
And it's almost divine
How we find ourselves
We ask ourselves
Do stars shine?
So it's love more or less
A special thing, to be true

How you gonna feel it whenn you cannot live it
How you gonna kiss the one you need?
How you gonna reach for the dreams that you think about
How you gonna let it be?

Oh! but I know this is right
We kiss in a special way
I think about it every night
Think about you every day
Love more or less
And I don't even know where to begin
6.
Chagall Duet
Demande-mot de tout changer
Car dans mon coeur, l'air que je respire
Attise la flamme de mon desir
Rien que ton nom me met en feu

I need to know if I'm secure
As all my plans call from the dark
And need for light and I
So young to know my life

We sepak of love
I never felt as Ido with you
Such as the mood
My feet don't even touch the ground
Then all at once
As one and one with love
I only care
You're never far from me
To be my friend
All my dreams begin with you
To be my guide
Each breathing moment
I need the spark
Each singing flame
I need the soul
Each whispered sigh
We've walked the earth
Each song we sing
We've climbed the stars
To fly to the sun

Sweet angel, did i have to see for myself?
Your eyes are my eyes that spin me round and round
All love is the colour of the spiritual ground
We've walked, yes we've walked by his side
As all is one, so this we are
Holding the flower, being the star

You left so young
Tu es douceur
I am alone
L'amour c'est toi
But here you'll stay
Ma vie c'est toi
Not near, not far
Mon ame c'est toi
You've been my life
Mon coeur c'est toi
Tonight I'm yours
For evermore
A tout jamais!

Candle Song
Anyone can light a candle
But not the way that you do

Anyone can light a candle
Just like a flower in the rain
You are unique, the same
Each step you take, each dream you realize
Will open your heart, your life

Anyone can light a candle
But not the way that you do
For if we look too close
Pure magic we would see
Pure magic we will be

It's all around each one, it's all around within
The perfect union close inside your dreams
To watch in wonderment as each day begins
They tell me you can hear this song

Anyone can light a candle
But not the way that you do
For if we look too close
Pure magic we would see
Pure magic we will be

Hurry Home
The breakthrough was needed by the sign of the day
Singing out our evolution, children show the way
They made out a charter sealed with a song
It tooke me across the river to where I belong

Hurry home to your heart, hurry home to the voice
There are times for inner changes, be ready for the choice
Hurry home, said my love, hurry home to the stars
Start a new generation with the freedom that's ours

My friend said bear me witness, I'm coming alive
For the first time in our history no mountains to climb
Be the living soul of this time, be ye wise as the moon
Be the first new generation coming home, coming soon
They call it the cleansing of the loneliest soul
It's an honour to be alive, from this love we'll never fall

Hurry home to your heart, hurry home to the voice
There's a new point to living and a freedom of choice
There's a call throughout the kingdom, there's a call throughout the land
Be as clear as the stars above, holding love in your hand

Hurry home to your heart, hurry home to the voice
There are times for inner changes, be ready for the choice
Hurry home, said my love, hurry home to the stars
Start a new generation with the freedom that's ours

We're gonna change our history, we're gonna change our style
They've been watching for many years, we're growing so wild
Be the children of the future, be the children of the age
We'll be standing there being counted with the strength that it takes

Hurry home to your heart, hurry home to the voice
There are times for inner changes, be ready for the choice
Hurry home, said my love, hurry home to the stars
Start a new generation with the freedom that's ours

Hurry home to your heart, hurry home to the voice
Hurry home to your love, hurry home now
Hurry home to your voice

Under the Sun
I may not always be the one
But until something comes along
It's never easy but I know
Without you where would I go?

I may not always stoop to win
Cause we can change how we begin
I won't deny my brothers sight
Without them how will I fly?

Same chance
Same time
Come along

How can I tell yo uwhat to be
When you're the best judge of yourself?
You hold a power so unique
You have the power to change your world

Same chance
Same steps along the way
Same chance
Same time

I may not always be the one
But until something comes along
It's never easy but I know
Without you where would I go?

You may not always see me win
Doesn't mean I won't be dreaming
I can stand as tall as the sky
With this feeling

Wanting only just to be with you
Same time
Same place under the sun
Same chance
See, it's almost there!
Wanting only just to be with you
To be near you this time
