Like It Is: YES At The Bristol Hippodrome


PERPETUAL CHANGE

I see the cold mist in the night
And watch the hills roll out of sight.
I watch in ev'ry single way
Inside out, outside in, ev'ry day.

The sun can warm the coldest dawn
And move the movement on the lawn.
I learn in ev'ry single day
Inside out, outside in, ev'ry way.

And there you are
Making it out but you're sure that it is a star
And all you see
Is an illusion shining out in front of me
And then you'll say
Even in time we shall control the day
When what you'll see
Deep inside base controlling you and me

And one peculiar point I see
As one of many ones of me.
As truth is gathered, I rearrange
Inside out, outside in, inside out, outside in
Perpetual change.

And there you are
Saying we have the moon, so now the stars
When all you see
ls near disaster gazing down on you and me
And there you're standing
Saying we have the whole world in our hands
When all you'll see
Deep inside the world's controlling you and me.

You'll see perpetual change.
You'll see perpetual change.

And there you are
Making it out but you're sure that it is a star
And all you see
It's an illusion shining out in front of me
And then you'll say
Even in time we shall control the day
When all you see
Deep inside base controlling you and me.

As mist and sun are both the same
We look on as pawns of their game.
They move to testify the day
Inside out, outside in, inside out, outside in
All of the way.
Ah, Ah.

Perpetual Change (Excerpt) [Live]


A VENTURE

Once a peaceful man laid his old head down by a river
Thought about his childhood life, his father and forgiver
Who couldn't hide away, hide away.

He controlled the horses with a handclap or a whisper
Drink he couldn't combat but in all he was no sinner
Couldn't hide away, hide away.

He told all his sons of all the antics of a venture
Then he told another one who drove himself to drink
Not to hide away, hide away.

Better men have realized alone is not a venture
A peaceful man would realize alone is no adventure
Just to hide away, hide away.

He told all his sons of all the antics of adventure
Then he told another one who drove himself to drink
Not to hide away, hide away.

I've Seen All Good People - II - All Good People(Excerpt) [Live]


I'VE SEEN ALL GOOD PEOPLE - I - YOUR MOVE

I've seen all good people
Turn their heads each day 
So satisfied 
I'm on my way.

Take a straight and stronger course 
To the corner of your life
Make the white queen run so fast 
She hasn't got time to make you a wife.

'Cause it's time
It's time in time with your time 
And its news is captured 
For the queen to use.

Move me on to any black square
Use me any time you want
Just remember that the goal
Is for us all to capture all we want

Don't surround yourself with yourself

Move on back two squares
Send an Instant Karma to me
Initial it with loving care
Don't surround yourself.

'Cause it's time
It's time in time with your time
And its news is captured.

Starship Trooper - III - Würm (Excerpt) [Live]


STARSHIP TROOPER - II - DISILLUSION

Loneliness is a power that we posses to give or take away forever.
All I know can be shown by your acceptance of the facts there shown before you.
Take what I say in a diff'rent way and it's easy to say that this is all confusion.
As I see a new day in me, I can also show it you and you may follow.

Speak to me of summer, long winters longer than time can remember
The setting up of other roads, to travel on in old accustomed ways.
I still remember the talks by the water, the proud sons and daughter
That knew the knowledge of the land, spoke to me in sweet accustomed ways.

Starship Trooper - II - Disillusion (Excerpt) [Live]


STARSHIP TROOPER - I - LIFE SEEKER

Sister Bluebird flying high above,
Shine your wings forward to the sun.
Hide the myst'ries of life on your way.
Though you've seen them, please don't say a word.
What you don't know, I have never heard.

Starship Trooper, go sailing on by,
Catch my soul, catch the very light.
Hide the moment from my eager eye.
Though you've seen them, please don't tell a soul.
What you can't see, can't be very whole.

Speak to me of summer, long winters longer than time can remember,
The setting up of other roads, to travel on in old accustomed ways.
I still remember the talks by the water, the proud sons and daughter that,
Knew the knowledge of the land, that spoke to me in sweet accustomed ways.

Mother life, hold firmly on to me.
Catch my knowledge higher than the day.
Lose as much as only you can show.
Though you've seen them, please don't say a word.
What I don't know, I have never shared.

Clap (Excerpt) [Live]


YOURS IS NO DISGRACE

Yesterday a morning came, a smile upon your face.
Caesar's palace, morning glory, silly human race,
On a sailing ship to nowhere, leaving any place,
If the summer changed to winter, yours is no disgrace.

Battleships confide in me and tell me where you are,
Shining, flying, purple wolfhound, show me where you are,
Lost in summer, born in winter, travel very far,
Lost in losing circumstances, that's just where you are.

Yesterday a morning came, a smile upon your face.
Caesar's palace, morning glory, silly human race,
On a sailing ship to nowhere, leaving any place,
If the summer changed to winter, yours is no,
Yours is no disgrace.
Yours is no disgrace.
Yours is no disgrace.

Death defying, mutilated armies scatter the earth,
Crawling out of dirty holes, their morals, their morals disappear.

Yesterday a morning came, a smile upon your face.
Caesar's palace, morning glory, silly human, silly human race,
On a sailing ship to nowhere, leaving any place,
If the summer changed to winter, yours is no,
Yours is no disgrace.
Yours is no disgrace.
Yours is no disgrace.

Yours Is No Disgrace (Excerpt 1) [Live]


AWAKEN

High vibration go on 
To the sun, oh let my heart dreaming
Past a mortal as me
Where can I be?

Wish the sun to stand still
Reaching out to touch our own being
Past all mortal as we
Here we can be
We can be here
Be here now
Here we can be

Suns | High | Streams | Through
Awaken gentle mass touch
Awaken gentle mass touching

Strong | Dreams | Reign | Here
Awaken gentle mass touch
Awaken gentle mass touching

.)(.
Awaken gentle mass touch
Awaken gentle mass touching

Star | Song | Age | Less
Awaken gentle mass touch
Awaken gentle mass touching

Workings of man
Set to ply out historical life
Reregaining the flower of the fruit of his tree
All awakening
All restoring you

Workings of man
Crying out from the fire set aflame
By his blindness to see that
The warmth of his being
Is promised for his seeing 
His reaching so clearly

Workings of man
Driven far from the path
Rereleased in inhibitions
So that all is left for you
All is left for you
All is left for you
All this left for you now

Master of images
Songs cast a light on you
Hark thru dark ties
That tunnel us out of sane existence
In challenge as direct
As eyes see young stars assemble

Master of Light
All pure chance
As exists cross divided
In all encircling mode
Oh closely guided plan
Awaken in our heart

Master of Soul
Set to touch
All impenetrable youth
Ask away
That thought be contact
With all that's clear
Be honest with yourself
There's no doubt no doubt

Master of Time
Setting sail
Over all of our lands
And as we look
Forever closer
Shall we now bid
Farewell farewell

High vibration go on
To the sun, oh let my heart dreaming
Past a mortal as me
Where can I be

Wish the sun to stand still
Reaching out to touch our own being
Past all mortal as we
Here we can be

Like the time I ran away
Turned around and you were standing close to me
Like the time I ran away
Turned around and you were standing close to me.

Awaken (Excerpt) [Live]


WONDEROUS STORIES

I awoke this morning love laid me down by a river.
Drifting I turned on upstream bound for my forgiver.
In the giving of my eyes to see your face.
Sound did silence me leaving no trace.
I beg to leave, to hear your wonderous stories.
Beg to hear your wonderous stories.

He spoke of lands not far or lands they were in his mind.
Of fusion captured high where reason captured his time.
In no time at all he took me to the gate.
In haste I quickly checked the time.
If I was late I had to leave to hear your wonderous stories.
Had to hear your wonderous stories.

Hearing...
Hearing your wonderous stories.

It is no lie I can see deeply into the future.
Imagine everything you're close and were you there to stand
So cautiously at first and then so high.
As he spoke my spirit climbed into the sky.
I bid it to return to hear your wonderous stories.
Return to hear your wonderous stories.

Hearing...

Wonderous Stories (Excerpt) [Live]

PARALLELS

When you've tried most everything
 And nothing's taking you higher 
When you've come to realise 
You've been playing with fire 
Hear me when i say to you 
It's really down to your heart

It's the beginning of a new love in sight 
You've got the way to make it all happen 
Set it spinning turning roundabout 
Create a new dimension 
When we are winning we can stop and shout 
Making love towards perfection

I've been all around the world 
And seen so many faces
 Young and old a story told 
Filling in my spaces
 Now without a trace of doubt. 
I feel it every hour

It's the beginning of a new love inside
 Could be an ever opening flower
 No hesitation when we're all about 
To build a shining tower 
No explanations, need to work it out 
You know we've got the power

Parallel our sights 
And we will find, that we, we need, 
To be, where we, belong 
Parallel our heights 
Display our rights and wrongs.
 And always, keep it strong 
It's the beginning of a new love in sight 
Could be an ever opening flower
 No explanations, need to work it out 
You know we've got the power
It's the beginning of a new love inside
 You've got the way to make it all happen
 Set it spinning turning roundabout 
Create a new dimension 
When we are winning we can stop and shout
 Making love towards perfection.

Parallels (Excerpt) [Live]

----------------------------

TURN OF THE CENTURY

Realising a form out of stone 
Set hands moving 
Roan shaped his heart 
Thru his working hands
 Work to mould his passion into clay
 Like the sun

In his room, his lady 
She would dance and sing so completely 
So be still, he now cries
 I have time, oh let day transform thee so

In the deep cold of night
 Winter calls, he cries, don't deny me 
For his lady, deep her illness 
Time has caught her
 And will for all reasons take her

In the still light of dawn, she dies
 Helpless hands soul revealing
Like leaves we touch, we learn 
We once knew the story 
As Winter calls he will starve 
All but to see the stone be life

Now Roan no more tears 
Set to work his strength
 So transformed him 
Realising a form out of stone, his work
 So absorbed him 
Could she hear him
 Could she see him
 All aglow was his room dazed in this light 
He would touch her 
He would hold her
 Laughing as they danced 
Highest colours touching others

Did her eyes at the turn of the century 
Tell me plainly 
When we meet, how we'll love,
 Oh let life so transform me

Like leaves we touched, we danced 
We once knew the story 
As autumn called and we both 
Remembered all those many years ago
 I'm sure we know

Was the sign with a touch 
As I kiss your fingers
 We walk hands in the sun
 Memories when we're young
 Love lingers so.

Was it sun thru the haze 
That made all your looks
 As warm as moonlight
 As a pearl deep your eyes
 Tears have flown away
 All the same light

Did her eyes at the turn of the century 
Tell me plainly 
When we meet how we'll look
 As we smile time will leave me clearly

Like leaves we touch, we see 
We will know the story 
As Autumn calls we'll both remember 
All those many years ago.

Turn Of The Century (Excerpt) [Live]


GOING FOR THE ONE

Get the idea cross around the track  
Underneath the flank of a thoroughbred racing chaser 
Getting the feel as a river flows 
Would you like to go n’ shoot the mountain masses 
And here you stand no taller than the grass sees 
And should you really chase so hard 
The truth of sport plays rings around you

Going for the one
Going for the one

Get in the way as the tons of water
Racing with you, crashing thru the rudder
Once at the start can you gamble  that
You really surely really mean to finish
After seeing all your sense of fear diminish
As you treat danger a pure collection 
As you throw away misconceptions

Going for the one 
Going for the one
Going for a

Listen in time 
Taken so high 
To touch to move
Listen to life 
Touching touch time 
Travel twilight

Taken so high 
Roundabout
Sounding out
Love you so
Love you so
Love you so

Now the verses i’ve sang don’t add much weight
To the story in my head so i’m thinking  
I should go and write a punch line 
But they’re so hard to find in my cosmic mind
So i think i’ll take a look out of the window 
When i think about you, i don’t feel low 
‘N’ should i really chase so hard 
The truth of sport plays rings around you

Going for the one 
Going for the one 
Going for to

Listen in time 
Taken so high 
To touch to move
Listen to life 
Touching touchtime 
Travel twilight

Taken so high 
Taking your time 
Turn on to love 
Turnstile to one 
Tender timing 
Rocking rolling

Listen in time 
Taken so high
To touch to move
Listen to life

Taken so high 
Taking your time 
Turn on to love 
Turnstile to one

Turn on to love
Turnstile to one 
Tender timing
Rocking rolling

Moments decide
Moments delight
Moments in flight
Talk about sending love.
