TEA AND EMPATHY
**************************

There he lay - Sleeping near the subway
As the crowd marched by - No-one headed his way
And the scene transformed - In the blink of an eye
But the years have taught him - How not to cry ! 
Cry!  Life - Mundane life - Never-changing life -
Bleak, harsh life!
* * * * 
There he stood - Hiding in the doorway
Was it luck or fate - When she fell at his feet that day ?
And could he help at all ? - You know, he knows
What it's like to fall !
Tea and empathy for a friend in need
Makes a friend indeed !
Life - Unpredictable life - Ever-changing life
Extraordinary life !
* * * *
She said  " It's never too late to aim your sights
You know, it's never too late to gain your prize -
You've gotta find your feet and strive with all your might
It's never too late to change your life ! "
* * * *
Here he stands - scanning the horizon
Now you see today this boy - this boy, he has a reason
And an inner strength to face the day - with determination
And he can now view his world - with fascination !

Life ! Unpredictable life ! Ever-changing life ! Extraordinary life !
Life ! Unpredictable life ! Ever-changing life ! Remarkable life !

~:~:~   HEAR ME   ~:~:~

Where were you when the sun went down
When I stood all alone and I stared at the ground ?
Where were you when the sun came up
When the red sky warned of the rain to come ?
~:~:~
Hear me now - I think of you
As the day shuts down 
And in the morning too
Each and every day these eyes
Long to see you one last time
~:~:~
Where were you when the flowers bloomed
When I sat on my own in my quiet room ?
Where were you in the humid night
When the stars broke through the deep blue sky ?
~:~:~
Hear me now - I think of you
As the day shuts down
And in the morning too
Each and every day these eyes
Long to see you one last time
~:~:~
Where were you when the leaves blew wild
When I needed you there to be my guide ?
And where did I go on that grey dark day
When I knew I would never see you again ?

Hear me now - I think of you.

Hear Me


////////   Somehow I Doubt It   \\\\\\\\

You must spend a lot of time perfecting your lines // Convincing me our future is bright // So I choose to tolerate the things that you say because I don't give a damn either way !
You're pretty transparent, quite amusing to hear // It's time for me to disappear // You see I've worked out a new life plan - to find me a permanent man !

Somehow I doubt it, when they say you've gone home // I doubt it, when you turn off your phone // I doubt it, when you don't answer the door // I can see the letters piling up on the floor !

It's time to let you know that you're the fool // And my indifference is a valuable tool // I guess I'll throw that rock that you insist I wear and buy a long vacation somewhere!                                                                                          

Somehow I doubt it, when they say you've gone home // I doubt it, I've got thoughts of my own // I doubt it, your car is not on the drive // I think I'll head on out and rediscover my life !

Somehow I Doubt It

"" DEAR FRIEND ""
""""""""""""""""""""
Dear friend, why don't you come with me?
Dear friend, why don't you come with me?
We could change everything about us......
But us!

You've been unhappy with the daily grind
So grab yourself the freedom you've spoken of, so many times!
Dear friend, why don't you come with me?
Dear friend, there's a world to see!

We'll venture out at the break of the day!
Soak up the colours and vibe of the place - if we stay,

Dear friend, why don't you come with me?

Let's find a place where we can feel young!
Wave our Good-byes to the racing rats we've become!!

Dear, dear friend - why don't you come with me?

Dear Friend

*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_
:::   LITTLE TREE   :::
*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_

You arrived in sunshine - Saw your brand new world
Reach up high - It rains at times!

Hey! Little tree, be tall and proud but take your time to grow
I will always care for you and watch your leaves unfurl
It makes me smile to see you standing taller every day
I can see your hazel eyes and you're in my heart each day.

Feel the warm spring breeze through seas of daffodils
You have earned your place in this world.

Storms may blow your way but your roots are firm
Know that you're on higher ground.

*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_
Hey! Little Tree..........

Little Tree

************************
|||  ACROSS THE MILES  |||
************************

Set Sail on the ocean's blue!

Break the Champagne * Wave Her away!
Over the ocean * And pray She'll be safe.
Across the miles * Bridge the gap with flags and smiles!
Across the miles * With Neptune at your side.

Bless this ship * Bless this ship * Bless this ship and all who sail in her!

Stripes are for me * Stars for you!
Stripes are for me * And the stars for you!
Stripes are for me * And the stars for you!
Stripes are for me * And the stars, the stars are for you!

Guide her through * Guide her through * Guide her through the ocean's blue!

The finest steel * Built with pride
Touched by Polaris * Her Guardians riding high
With watchful eyes * Encompassing the great divide
Nautical miles * With Neptune at your side.

 * Stripes are for me * And the stars are for you *
 * Guide her through the ocean's blue *

====SNOW HILL===
================

How are you doing my old friend? Are you good?
I said I'd get to see you in the end!
I'm on the train, it's leaving right away yeah!
It's crowded as we speak, but that's OK.
======
Gathering speed - transported back to the last time.
Recalling how we laughed - just like it was yesterday!
Where did we get up to with putting our worlds to rights?
(In our own way!)
Meaning to ask the one question on my mind!
======
This is rural overload! 
I'm counting sheep and narrow boats
Red Kites are hanging in the breeze
But I can't imagine snow!
People nodding in their sleep
Papers fold and mobiles beep
Can't distract me from the peaceful thoughts I keep.
======
How are you doing my old friend? I hope you're good!
I'm on my way to see you like I said.
======
Decreasing speed as buildings increase further up the line
It's called progress!
It's what to expect when Mother Nature's undermined.
======
Concrete's closing in on me
Crowds of people - signs to read
This is urban overload
And what's happened to the snow?!
You fight taxis in the street
And I walk so fast - you're just in reach
Take me where I can see some trees!
 Oh! Please!
=======
How are you doing my old friend? You're looking good.
It's great to get to see you once again.
Nothing's changed and you look just the same.
So tell me, if you can - what's with the name?
All the way up to the hill
My expectations unfulfilled.
Let's get going anyway - there'll be no snow today! 
======
Oh! Yeah! 
And did you like that festival and I love your paintings on your wall -
But don't you know what happened to the snow? Where'd it go?!
So if you were an animal, what would you be? 
Oh! Come on! I need humouring! 
Forget the snow - it must have been a dream...just a dream!
Oh! And I like this car your driving round and what's this song your playing now? Sun or snow - does it matter anyhow?
Anyhow..........

********************

I took the big book from the shelf
I was looking for something else 
When I discovered you, purely by chance.                 
You beckoned me, you beckoned me.
******
I had to see for myself 
If the artist of light captured you right
I had to see
You captured me. 
******
Northbound, westbound
North-west bound through another town and then
Down the lane and due south again
And I'm here...and I'm here.
******
Lead me on through your gateway
Where time stands still even today
Mysteries of your past hold secrets and lies
Welcome me....overwhelm me.
******
Gold and blue is how I'll always picture you
Red and white of your flag - up high and true
Gold and blue - fly it high in the blue of the sea blue sky
Touch the moon as the centuries drift by...drift by...drift by.

~~ IF WE'VE COME THIS FAR ~~ 

The bus moves round, draws up to where we're waiting
Everybody smiles inside and out
Everybody's feeling so elated
As I climb the steps my feet don't touch the ground

And the vibe on the bus is getting so electric
It takes many hands to oil a great machine
And the man with the sticks beats out anticipation...
While priceless conversation sets the scene

If we've come this far - do you think we've made it?
If we've come this far - we can plan our next big step
And if we get it right - and we will tonight - we've made it!
If we've come this far & we're wicked - we won't rest!

When the sun disappears the tension mounts around us
And we see a thousand faces straight ahead
The Main Man in the white suit takes charge in the spotlight
And we wonder if we'll come this way again

If we've come this far - does it mean we've made it?
If we've come this far - we can plan our next big step
And if we get it right - and we will tonight - we've made it
If we've come this far and we're wicked we won't rest!

And if we've come this far - does it mean we're famous...?
And if we've come this far - we can plan our next big step
And if we get it right- and we will tonight - we've made it
And we wonder if we'll come this way again...

::  STOWAWAY  ::

A winter take off 
A summer touch down
Leave it all behind 
Oh! A new world
With old dreams
A new time ... so it seems

Stowaway 
Inside information - never seen or found
Hide away! Its only in the mind...in the mind

It's simple to understand - when eyes get a clearer view
Your soul can heal in time...

Brave adventure 
Broad horizons
Everything should change - by now it should change...
A winter touch down - the clouds not lifting
One day it may fade from grey...

Stowaway
Inside information - never seen or found
Hide away! She's only in your mind...In your mind

*** RISE ***

Can you see the dawn arising
Can you see the light inside your mind
Can you feel it ?
Love will never die !

Be majestic like a phoenix 
You can be as golden as the sun
You can reach it
Nothing ever really dies !

RISE 
Shine like the sun
Make real your dreams
Realize it's all just make-believe 
Take time and take space
Shape with your hands
Your life's your own
Your master plan...

The universe it has no corners
There's no boundary 
You are not alone 
Are there edges to the oceans' waves ?

So the grass it may be greener
And the rivers may run clearer
So - How'd you know -
If you can't look to the other side ?

RISE
Shine like the sun
Wishes and dreams
And watching them all come true 
You'll see
That finding your way
Is all that it takes 
If you can wait for them to be...

RISE MAJESTIC 
RISE PHOENIX
YOU CAN BELIEVE IT !

RISE 
Shine like the sun
Make real your dreams
Realize it's all just make-believe 
Take time and take space
Shape with your hands
Your life's your own
Your master plan...

Rise

^v^  HIGH ON A MOUNTAIN  ^v^
---------------------------------------------

Hey Babe!  What brings you here when so many seasons have gone & disappeared?
Thousands of suns & moons have drifted out of touch!
So are you gonna tell me now, we've really changed that much?

We were high on a mountain and we thought that we could fly
When the whole wide world was wondrous
Can we hold on to that time?
We were high upon a mountain and we thought that we could fly!

We all have a story and we've found our way
But are we still the people that we once were, today?
So tell me, tell me now - what, what do you see?
Do you see the angel you always saw in me?!

We were high on a mountain and we thought that we could fly!
When the whole wide world was wondrous
Can we hold on to that time?
We were high up on a mountain and we thought that we could fly!

Pretty boy you've got silver hues now!
Distinguished eyes distinguish truth...
Did your wings grow wide?
Did you fly again?
Did you touch the sky - did your dreams transcend?

What's your poison Babe? What have I missed?
Do you set the stage to show your hand or will we reminisce?

We were high on a mountain and we thought that we could fly!
When the whole wide world was wondrous - can we hold on to that time?

High On A Mountain


{{{   STOP TO LISTEN   }}}

This time you'll find my hands are open and my eyes firmly closed - 'cos I'm leaving it up to you to guide me to  -  to wherever you feel you want to go ::
And whatever you discover in my nature, I'm sure that you can handle it all.
As I'm guessing - what's the point of anything, if all I have surrounding me are walls?

You will always hear - 'cos you stop to listen, never keeping any score. And I'll never be a mystery - 'cos you stop to listen - a promise, not a gamble that's for sure.

This time, my cards are on the table and I won't hide behind a mask. So what I'm saying - is that I'm on the level - and it's up to you - you only have to ask :: So I'll leave my isolated island and I'll find myself standing by the shore. I'm convinced I hear the roaring of the ocean and I know I'm right responding to its call.

You will always hear - 'Cos you stop to listen, never keeping any score.........
