Gypsy
Justin Hayward
Alternate Version
A gypsy of a strange and distant time
Traveling in panic, all direction blind
Aching for the warmth of a burning sun
Freezing in the emptiness of where he'd come from
Ahhhh, ahhhhh
Left without a hope of coming home
Speeding through a shadow of a million years
Darkness is the only sound to reach his ears
Frightening him with the visions of eternity
Screaming for a future that can never be
Ahhh, ahhhh
Left without a hope of coming home
Ahhhh, ahhhh
A gypsy of a strange and distant time
Traveling in panic all direction blind
Aching for the warmth of a burning sun
Freezing in the emptiness of where he'd come from
Ahhhh, ahhhhh
Left without a hope of coming home
Left without a hope of coming home
Left without a hope of coming home...
Candle Of Life
John Lodge
Alternate Version
Something you can't hide
Says you're lonely
Hidden deep inside
Of you only
It's there for you to see
Take a look and be
Burn slowly the candle of life
Something there outside
Says we're only
In the hands of time
Falling slowly
It's there for us to know
With love that we can go
Burn slowly the candle of life
So love everybody
And make them your friend
So love everybody
And make them your friend
Something you can't hide
Says you're lonely
Hidden deep inside
Of you only
It's there for you to see
Take a look and be
Burn slowly the candle of life
Something there outside
Says we're only
In the hands of time
Falling slowly
It's there for us to know
With love that we can go
Burn slowly the candle of life
Sun Is Still Shining
Mike Pinder
Extended Version
The sun is still shining
Look at the view
Moon is still dining
With me and you
Now that we're out here
Open your heart
To the universe
Of which we're a part
Everything's turning
Turning around
See with your mind
Leave your body behind
Now that we're out here
Open your heart
To the universe
Of which we're a part
But if you want to play
Stay right back on earth
Waiting for rebirth
The sun is still shining
Look at the view
Moon is still dining
With me and you
Now that we're out here
Open your heart
To the universe
Of which we're a part
But if you want to play
Stay right back on earth
Waiting for rebirth

The Sunset
Mike Pinder
BBC Radio Concert December 17, 1969
When the sun goes down
And the clouds all frown
Night has begun for the sunset
See it with your eyes
Earth re-energized
By the sun's rays every day
Take a look out there
Planets everywhere
When the sun goes down
And the clouds all frown
Night has begun for the sunset
Shadows on the ground
Never make a sound
Fading away in the sunset
Night has now become
Day for everyone
I can see it all
From this great height
I can feel the sun
Slipping out of sight
And the world still goes on
Through the night
Never Comes The Day
Justin Hayward
BBC Radio Concert December 17, 1969
Work away today
Work away tomorrow
Never comes the day
For my love and me
I feel her gently sighing
As the evening slips away
If only you knew what's inside of me now
You wouldn't want to know me, somehow
But you will love me tonight
We alone will be all right
In the end
Give just a little bit more
Take a little bit less
From each other tonight
Admit what you're feeling
And see what's in front of you
It's never out of your sight
You know it's true
We all know that it's true
Work away today
Think about tomorrow
Never comes the day
For my love and me
I feel her gently sighing
As the evening slips away
If only you knew what's inside of me now
You wouldn't want to know me, somehow
But you will love me tonight
We alone will be all right
In the end
Give just a little bit more
Take a little bit less
From each other tonight
Admit what you're feeling
And see what's in front of you
It's never out of your sight
You know it's true
We all know that it's true
You know it's true
We all know that it's true
You know it's true
We all know that it's true....
Are You Sitting Comfortably
Ray Thomas and Justin Hayward
BBC Radio Concert December 17, 1969
Take another sip my love
And see what you will see
A fleet of golden galleons
On a crystal sea
Are you sitting comfortably?
Let Merlin cast his spell...
Ride along the winds of time
And see where we have been
The glorious age of Camelot
When Guinevere was Queen
It all unfolds before your eyes
As Merlin casts his spell...
The Seven Wonders of the World
He'll lay before your feet
In far-off lands, on distant shores
So many friends to meet
Are you sitting comfortably?
Let Merlin cast his spell...
The Dream
Graeme Edge
BBC Radio Concert December 17, 1969
When the white eagle of the North
Is flying overhead
And the browns, reds and golds of autumn
Lie in the gutter, dead
Remember then, the summer birds
With wings of fire flaying
Come to witness Spring's new hope
Born of leaves decaying
As new life will come from death
Love will come at leisure
Love of love, love of life
And giving without measure
Gives in return a wondrous yearn
Of a promise almost seen
Live hand-in-hand
And together we'll stand
On the threshold of a dream....
Have You Heard (Part 1)
Mike Pinder
BBC Radio Concert December 17, 1969
Now you know that you are real
Show your friends that you and me
Belong to the same world
Turned on to the same word
Have you heard?
Now you know that you are free
Living all your life at ease
Each day has its always
A look down life's hallways, doorways
To lead you there
The Voyage
Mike Pinder
BBC Radio Concert December 17, 1969
~~ Instrumental ~~
Have You Heard (Part 2)
Mike Pinder
BBC Radio Concert December 17, 1969
Now you know how nice it feels
Scatter good seed in the fields
Life's ours for the making
Eternity's waiting, waiting
For you and me
Now you know that you are real
Show your friends that you and me
Belong to the same world
Turned on to the same word
Have you heard?
Nights in White Satin
Justin Hayward
BBC Radio Concert December 17, 1969
Nights in white satin
Never reaching the end
Letters I've written
Never meaning to send
Beauty I'd always missed
With these eyes before
Just what the truth is
I can't say anymore
'Cause I love you
Yes I love you
Oh how I love you
Gazing at people
Some hand in hand
Just what I'm going through
They can understand
Some try to tell me
Thoughts they cannot defend
Just what you want to be
You will be in the end
And I love you
Yes, I love you
Oh, how I love you
Oh, how I love you
Nights in white satin
Never reaching the end
Letters I've written
Never meaning to send
Beauty I'd always missed
With these eyes before
Just what the truth is
I can't say anymore
'Cause I love you
Yes, I love you
Oh, how I love you
Oh, how I love you
'Cause I love you
Yes, I love you
Oh, how I love you
Oh, how I love you
Legend Of A Mind
Ray Thomas
BBC Radio Concert December 17, 1969
Timothy Leary's dead
No, no, no
He's outside looking in
Timothy Leary's dead
No, no, no
He's outside looking in
He'll fly his astral plane
Takes you trips around the bay
Brings you back the same day
Timothy Leary
Timothy Leary
Timothy Leary's dead
No, no, no
He's outside looking in
Timothy Leary's dead
No, no, no
He's outside looking in
He'll fly his astral plane
Takes you trips around the bay
Brings you back the same day
Timothy Leary
Timothy Leary
Along the coast you'll hear them boast
About a light they say that shines so clear
So raise your glass, we'll drink a toast
To the little man
Who sells you thrills along the pier
He'll take you up, he'll bring you down
He'll plant your feet back firmly on the ground
He flies so high, he swoops so low
He knows exactly which way he's gonna go
Timothy Leary
Timothy Leary
He'll take you up, he'll bring you down
He'll plant your feet back on the ground
He'll fly so high, he'll swoop so low
Timothy Leary
He'll fly his astral plane
He'll take you trips around the bay
He'll bring you back the same day
Timothy Leary
