State Of Independence

State of life-may I live-may I love
Coming out the sky, I name me a name

Coming out-silver word-what it is
It is the very nature of the sound the game
Siamese, Indionese. To Tibet treat the life
As a game, if you please

(Hey) 

Coming up-Carabi-this sense of freedom
Derives from a medative State

Movin' on, 'believe' that's it, call it magic
Third world, it is, I only guessed it

Shablam idi Shablam ida
Shablam idi Shablam ida
Shablam idi Shablam ida

Shot to the soul-the flame of Oroladin
The essence of the word
The 'State Of Independence'

[interlude]

Sounds 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 
 (Hey, hey)

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

(Hey, hey)
Say-Aye yaya oh
(Yayah yaya oh)
'Be the sound of higher love' today

(Yayah)

(Hey, hey)
Time, time again, it is said
We will hear, we will see
See it all-in his wisdom-hear
His truth will abound the land
This truth will abound the land
This State of independence shall be
This State of independence shall be
Time, time again, it is said 
We will hear, we will see 
See it all-in his wisdom-hear 
His truth will abound the land
This truth will abound the land
This state of independence shall be 
This state of independence shall be
This state of independence shall be
This state of independence shall be
This state of independence shall be
This state of independence shall be
Shaker Loops

Look into 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 thru 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.

Alive & Well

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 to the end of time?

All you need to think of is hope and the good in love
As all that surrounds 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 when 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.
Chagall Duet

Demande-moi de tout changer,
Car dans mon coeur, l'air que je respire
Attise la flamme de mon dĘsir,
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 speak of love,
I never felt as I do 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 ×me c'est toi...
You've been my life,
Mon coeur c'est toi...
Tonight I'm yours
For evermore.
A tout jamais!...
Run On, Jon

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 be
Pure magic we would see.
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

[interlude]

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

So if we look too close,
Pure magic we will be
Pure magic we will see
