Lost In A Lost World
Mike Pinder
I woke up today I was crying Lost in a lost world So many people are dying Lost in a lost world Some of them are living an illusion Bounded by the darkness of their minds In their eyes it's nation against nation against nation With racial pride Sad hearts they hide Thinking only of themselves They shun the light They think they're right Living in their empty shells Oh, can you see their world is crashing? Crashing down around their feet Angry people in the street Telling them they've had their fill Of politics that wound and kill Grow, the seeds of evolution Revolution never won It's just another form of gun To do again what they have done With all our brothers' youngest sons Everywhere you go you see them searching Everywhere you turn you feel the pain Everyone is looking for the answer Well look again, come on my friend Love will find them in the end Come on my friend We've got to bend On our knees and say a prayer Oh, can you see the world is pining Pining for someone who really cares enough to share his love With all of us, so we can be An ever loving family Have we forgotten we're all children? Children from a family tree That's longer than a centipede Started long ago when you and I Were only love I woke today, I was crying Lost in a lost world So many people are dying Lost in a lost world So many people, so many people, people Lost in a lost world So many people, so many people, people Lost in a lost world
New Horizons
Justin Hayward
Well I've had dreams enough for one And I've got love enough for three I have my hopes to comfort me I got my new horizons out to sea But I'm never gonna lose your precious gift It will always be that way 'Cause I know I'm going to find My own peace of mind Someday... Where is this place that we have found Nobody knows where we are bound I long to hear, I need to see 'Cause I've shed tears too many for me But I'm never gonna lose your precious gift It will always be that way 'Cause I know I'm going to find my peace of mind Someday... On the wind soaring free Spread your wings I'm beginning to see Out of mind far from view Beyond the reach of the nightmare come true Well I've had dreams enough for one And I got love enough for three I have my hopes to comfort me I got my new horizons out to sea But I'm never gonna lose your precious gift It will always be that way 'Cause I know I'm going to find my own peace of mind Someday, some way...
For My Lady
Ray Thomas
This song is a beautiful ballad sung by Ray Thomas, and is the "B" side to "I'm Just A Singer (In A Rock'n'Roll Band)".
Isn't Life Strange
John Lodge
Isn't life strange? A turn of the page Can read like before Can we ask for more? Each day passes by How hard man will try The sea will not wait You know it makes me want to cry, cry, cry Wish I could be in your heart To be one with your love Wish I could be in your eyes Looking back there you were And here we are Isn't love strange? A word we arrange With no thought or care Maker of despair Each breath that we breathe With love we must weave To make us as one You know it makes me want to cry, cry, cry Wish I could be in your heart To be one with your love Wish I could be in your eyes Looking back there you were And here we are Isn't life strange? A turn of the page A book without light Unless with love we write To throw it away To lose just a day The quicksand of time You know it makes me want to cry, cry, cry Wish I could be in your heart To be one with your love Wish I could be in your eyes Looking back there you were Wish I could be in your heart To be one with your love Wish I could be in your eyes Looking back there you were Wish I could be in your heart To be one with your love Wish I could be in your eyes Looking back there you were
You And Me
Justin Hayward and Graeme Edge
There's a leafless tree in Asia Under the sun there's a homeless man There's a forest fire in the valley Where the story all began What will be our last thought? Do you think it's coming soon? Will it be a comfort Or the pain of a burning wound? All we are trying to say Is we are all we've got You and me just cannot fail If we never, never stop You're an ocean full of faces And you know that we believe We're just a wave that drifts around you Singing all our hopes and dreams We look around in wonder At the work that has been done By the visions of our father Touched by his loving son All we are trying to say Is we are all we've got You and me just cannot fail If we never, never stop All we are trying to say Is we are all we've got You and me just cannot fail If we never, never stop You and me just cannot fail If we never, ever, never, ever stop
The Land Of Make-Believe
Justin Hayward
We're living in a land of make-believe And trying not to let it show Maybe in that land of make-believe Heartaches can turn into joy We're breathing in the smoke of high and low We're taking up a lot of room Somewhere in the dark and silent night Our prayer will be heard Make it soon So fly little bird Up into the clear blue sky And carry the word Love's the only reason why, why Open all the shutters on your windows Unlock all the locks upon your doors Brush away the cobwebs from your daydreams No secrets come between us anymore Oh, say it's true Only love will see you through You know what love can do to you We're living in a land of make-believe And trying not to let it show Maybe in that land of make believe Heartaches can turn into joy We're breathing in the smoke of high and low We're taking up a lot of room Somewhere in the dark and lonely night Our prayer will be heard Make it soon So fly little bird Up into the clear blue sky And carry the word Love's the only reason why, why... Open all the shutters on your windows Unlock all the locks upon your doors Brush away the cobwebs from your daydreams No secrets come between us anymore Oh, say it's true Only love will see you through You know what love can do to you
When You're A Free Man
Mike Pinder
Time quickly passes by If only we could talk again Someday I hope I'll see you smiling When you're a free man again High on a mountain side We laughed and talked of things to come Someway I know I'll see you shining When we're all free men again You left your country for peace of mind And something tells me you're doing all right How are the children and Rosemary? I long to see you And be in your company Someday I hope I'll see you smiling When you're a free man again I often wonder why Our world has gone so far astray Some way I know I'll see you shining When we're all free men again You gave love freely to those with tears Your eyes were sad when you saw their need You know that love lasts for eternity Let's be God's children And live in perfect peace Peace, perfect peace Perfect peace Peace Someway I know I'll see you shining When you're a free man When we're all free men again, yeah When you're a free man...
