LYRICS by KATHLEEN MURPHY and CHRISTINA LEE
YOUR CONSCIOUSNESS MOVES BEFORE YOU IN PERFECT HARMONY,
THE SPIRIT OF LIFE ADORES YOU FOR IN TRUTH YOU ARE FREE,
AND IN TIME WE WILL SEE WHAT WE'VE ALWAYS KNOWN,
THAT LIFE SPRINGS FORTH FROM THE SEEDS WE'VE SOWN,
AND THE LOVE WE'VE SHARED ALONG THE WAY WILL BLOSSOM ON ITS OWN.
ALREADY OVER THE HEART NOT A CLOUD IS HANGING,
NOR IS THERE A SHADOW FOR THE MOON TO HIDE BEHIND.
IN THE SILENCE OF NIGHT THE EARTH'S SOUND IS HEARD,
WALKING IN DARKNESS' MEMORY STIRRED,
AND DEEP WITHIN WE HOLD THE KEY, THAT SILENT PLACE OF MEMORY
OF TIMES FORGOTTEN AND THOSE YET TO COME,
FOR WHAT HAS BEEN SEPARATE WILL BE AS ONE,
OF TIMES FORGOTTEN AND THOSE YET TO COME,
FOR WHAT HAS BEEN SEPARATE WILL BE... AS ONE.
IN THE UNION OF OUR LIVES UNLEASH OUR PASSION AND DESIRE
AS SOULS REACH OUT FOREVER AND DANCE IN THE HOLY FIRE,
AND DANCE IN THE HOLY FIRE, AND DANCE IN THE HOLY FIRE,
AS SOULS REACH OUT FOREVER AND DANCE IN THE HOLY FIRE,
AND DANCE IN THE HOLY FIRE, AND DANCE IN THE HOLY FIRE,
AND DANCE, AND DANCE, AND DANCE, AND DANCE, AND DANCE IN THE HOLY FIRE,
AND DANCE IN THE HOLY FIRE, AND DANCE IN THE HOLY FIRE,
AS SOULS REACH OUT FOREVER AND DANCE IN THE HOLY FIRE,
AND DANCE IN THE HOLY FIRE, AND DANCE IN THE HOLY FIRE,
AND DANCE, AND DANCE, AND DANCE, AND DANCE, AND DANCE IN THE HOLY FIRE...

NATURE'S BRIDE
04:52

|
LYRICS by CHRISTINA LEE
STARING VACANTLY INSIDE SHE BREAKS THE MIRROR
SWEARS TO ALL SHE WILL BE NATURE'S BRIDE,
WALKS OUTSIDE INTO THE SNOW AND WHO WILL KNOW
AS HER FOOTSTEPS MELT AWAY.
FINDS AN OAK SHE'S KNOWN FOR YEARS
BURIES HER FACE INTO THE BARK,
FEELS THAT SHE HAS COME TO REST,
MIXES SAP WITH HER TEARS.
I WILL BE ONE, ONE WITH YOU
NATURE, NATURE HEAR ME SPEAK,
I WILL BE NATURE'S BRIDE, I AM COMPLETE.
I WILL BE ONE, ONE WITH YOU
NATURE, NATURE HEAR ME SPEAK,
I WILL BE NATURE'S BRIDE, I AM COMPLETE.
THERE'S A TREE THAT STANDS ALONE
BARK AND WOOD AS SMOOTH AS BONE,
FINGERS REACHING FOR THE SKY,
GROWN INTO A SECRET PLACE YOU CAN SEE A WOMAN'S FACE
I WILL BE ONE, ONE WITH YOU
NATURE, NATURE HEAR ME SPEAK,
I WILL BE NATURE'S BRIDE, I AM COMPLETE.
I WILL BE ONE, ONE WITH YOU
NATURE, NATURE HEAR ME SPEAK,
I WILL BE NATURE'S BRIDE, I AM COMPLETE.
STARING VACANTLY INSIDE SHE BREAKS THE MIRROR
SWEARS TO ALL SHE WILL BE NATURE'S BRIDE,
WALKS OUTSIDE INTO THE SNOW AND WHO WILL KNOW
AS HER FOOTSTEPS MELT AWAY.
I WILL BE ONE, ONE WITH YOU
NATURE, NATURE HEAR ME SPEAK,
I WILL BE NATURE'S BRIDE, I AM COMPLETE.
I WILL BE ONE, ONE WITH YOU
NATURE, NATURE HEAR ME SPEAK,
I WILL BE NATURE'S BRIDE, I AM COMPLETE.

LYRICS BY KATHLEEN MURPHY
IF WE WRAP OUR TAIL AROUND THE TREE CAN WE GRASP A HOLD OF THE MESS WE’VE MADE
WILL THE ACID RAIN REACH INSIDE AND WASH AWAY THE PAIN
IF WE STAND STILL ON A MOUNTAIN PEAK WILL WE SEE THERE IS NO MORE TO REACH
WILL THE AIR WE BREATHE LIFT US UP, WILL WE FLY AGAIN
AND THE MOUNTAIN STANDS SHEANNA SHEANNA
AND THE PULSE OF LIFE FLOWS THROUGH OUR VEINS
WHEN WE SING AND DANCE SHEANNA SHEANNA
THE SONGS WE SING SHEANA SHEANA SHEANNANANANA
HEAL THE SCARS WE’VE MADE.
I SEE AN ANGEL IN YOUR FACE
TRYING TO SEE THROUGH THE MIST
WEAVING STORIES TO MAKE SENSE
OF THE LIES SHE HEARD WHILE SHE WAS KISSED
IF WE WRAP OUR TAIL AROUND THE TREE
CAN WE GRASP A HOLD OF THE MESS WE’VE MADE
WILL THE ACID RAIN REACH INSIDE AND WASH AWAY THE PAIN
AND THE MOUNTAIN STANDS SHEANNA SHEANNA
AND THE PULSE OF LIFE FLOWS THROUGH OUR VEINS
WHEN WE SING AND DANCE, SHEANNA SHEANNA
THE SONGS WE SING SHEANA SHEANA SHEANNANANANA...
HEAL THE SCARS WE’VE MADE.
I SEE AN ANGEL IN YOUR FACE
TRYING TO SEE THROUGH THE MIST
WEAVING STORIES TO MAKE SENSE
OF THE LIES SHE HEARD WHILE SHE WAS KISSED
IF WE WRAP OUR TAIL AROUND THE TREE
CAN WE GRASP A HOLD OF THE MESS WE’VE MADE
WILL THE ACID RAIN REACH INSIDE AND WASH AWAY THE PAIN
AND THE MOUNTAIN STANDS SHEANNA SHEANNA
AND THE PULSE OF LIFE FLOWS THROUGH OUR VEINS
WHEN WE SING AND DANCE SHEANNA SHEANNA
THE SONGS WE SING SHEANA SHEANA
AND THE MOUNTAIN STANDS SHEANNA SHEANNA
AND THE PULSE OF LIFE FLOWS THROUGH OUR VEINS
WHEN WE SING AND DANCE SHEANNA SHEANNA
THE SONGS WE SING SHEANA SHEANA SHEANNANANANA
HEAL THE SCARS WE’VE MADE.

WATCHED YOU DANCE

LYRICS by CHRISTINA LEE
I WATCHED YOU DANCE, YOUR LONG HAIR FLOWING,
WEAVING A STORY WITH YOUR BODY
I HEARD THE WORDS YOU SANG INSIDE
AND FELT FOR THOSE WHO COULD NOT SPEAK.
DO YOU SEE WHO YOU ARE, FRAGILE AS GLASS,
STRONG AS STONE,
AND LIFE HAS ETCHED AWAY YOUR HURTS
AND POLISHED YOUR WOUNDS.
YOUR ANGER AND PASSION LIGHT YOU WITH LOVE,
UNAFRAID TO MAKE A STAND,
WALKING ON THE EDGE OF LIFE
AND STEPPING INTO NO MAN'S LAND.
DO YOU SEE WHO YOU ARE, FRAGILE AS GLASS,
STRONG AS STONE,
AND LIFE HAS ETCHED AWAY YOUR HURTS
AND POLISHED YOUR WOUNDS.
WHILE YOU STAND IN THE CENTRE OF YOUR BEING,
A UNIVERSE UNTO YOURSELF,
YOUR BEAUTY FLOWS THROUGH WATER OVERFLOWING,
SPARKLING INTO THE SUN,
SPARKLING INTO THE SUN.
I WATCHED YOU DANCE, YOUR LONG HAIR FLOWING,
WEAVING A STORY WITH YOUR BODY
I HEARD THE WORDS YOU SANG INSIDE
AND FELT FOR THOSE WHO COULD NOT SPEAK.
DO YOU SEE WHO YOU ARE, FRAGILE AS GLASS,
STRONG AS STONE,
AND LIFE HAS ETCHED AWAY YOUR HURTS
AND POLISHED YOUR WOUNDS.
DO YOU SEE WHO YOU ARE, FRAGILE AS GLASS,
STRONG AS STONE,
AND LIFE HAS ETCHED AWAY YOUR HURTS
AND POLISHED YOUR WOUNDS.
DA DA DA DA DADA, DA DA DA DA DADA,
DA DA DA DA DA DA DA DA DA DA DA,

LYRICS BY CHRISTINA LEE
WELL SHE'S CRYING ACID TEARS AGAIN
THEY'VE ROBBED HER OF HER JEWELS AGAIN
AND STILL THEY WANT MORE,
THEY'RE RIPPING OFF HER LAND AGAIN
AND POISONING HER RIVERS
DOES SHE HAVE ANY MORE TO GIVE
SHE SAYS I'VE NO MORE TO GIVE
I'M DYING, I'M DYING, I'M DYING
NO MORE TIME
I'M CRYING, I'M CRYING, I'M CRYING
WELL THEY DON'T SEEM TO CARE
DON'T THEY KNOW THAT THIS IS SACRED LAND,
THEY'RE TRAPPED IN CONFUSION
OF MONEY AND ILLUSION
JUST SURVIVING, HAND TO HAND
SHE SAYS I'VE NO MORE TO GIVE
I'M DYING, I'M DYING, I'M DYING
NO MORE TIME
I'M CRYING, I'M CRYING, I'M CRYING
DON'T YOU LOVE ME
IT WASN'T ALWAYS THE SAME
IT WASN'T ALWAYS SO HARD
BUT NOW THERE'RE SO MANY PEOPLE
FIGHTING OVER HER
FIGHTING OVER HER LAND
FIGHTING OVER HER FOOD
FIGHTING OVER NOTHING AT ALL
SHE SAYS I'VE NO MORE TO GIVE
I'M DYING, I'M DYING, I'M DYING
NO MORE TIME
I'M CRYING, I'M CRYING, I'M CRYING
DON'T YOU LOVE ME
DON'T YOU LOVE ME
DON'T YOU LOVE ME
YOU KNOW IT'S ALL TOO SOON
YOU'D BETTER FLY TO THE MOON
YOU KNOW IT'S ALL TOO SOON
YOU'D BETTER FLY TO THE MOON
YOU KNOW IT'S ALL TOO SOON
YOU'D BETTER FLY TO THE MOON
YOU KNOW IT'S ALL TOO SOON

LYRICS by KATHLEEN MURPHY
EYES WEEPING, COME SILENTLY SEEKING
FROM THAT FAR AWAY PLACE OF LONG AGO,
WITH FIRE IN OUR HEARTS WE PLEDGE OUR VOW
TO THE EARTH OF WHICH WE WERE BORN.
AND THE GRASS GROWS AROUND US
WHISPERING, WHISPERING
HER EYES THE OCEAN, HER EARS THE WIND,
AND THE SKIES SURROUND US
WHISPERING, WHISPERING
ALL CHILDREN OF MINE RETURN TO ME,
OH CHILDREN OF MINE RETURN TO ME.
OH TAY AH KINOWA KANAY ET TERRA OH MAMA, OH MAMA.
OH TAY AH KINOWA KANAY ET TERRA OH MAMA, OH MAMA.
THROUGH LIFETIMES AND LIFETIMES WE'VE COME TO THIS PLACE
AND REMEMBERED THE KNOWING OF LONG AGO,
WHEN WE GATHER TOGETHER WE FEEL THE EMBRACE
OF THE EARTH OF WHICH WE WERE BORN.
AND THE MISTS SWIRL AROUND US
HER EYES THE OCEAN, HER EARS THE WIND
AND THE SKIES SURROUND US
ALL CHILDREN OF MINE RETURN TO ME,
OH CHILDREN OF MINE RETURN TO ME.
THROUGH LIFETIMES AND LIFETIMES WE'VE COME TO THIS PLACE
AND REMEMBERED THE KNOWING OF LONG AGO,
WHEN WE GATHER TOGETHER WE FEEL THE EMBRACE
OF THE EARTH OF WHICH WE WERE BORN.
AND THE MISTS SWIRL AROUND US
WHISPERING, WHISPERING
HER EYES THE OCEAN, HER EARS THE WIND
AND THE SKIES SURROUND US
WHISPERING, WHISPERING
ALL CHILDREN OF MINE RETURN TO ME,
OH CHILDREN OF MINE RETURN TO ME.

LYRICS by KATHLEEN MURPHY
YOU SAY PLEASE STAY AND THEN YOU GO AWAY
HOLDING MY HAND YOU SAY COME CLOSE
BUT WHEN I TURN AROUND YOU'RE NOWHERE TO BE FOUND
I'M FEELING SO, SO CONFUSED.
YOU SAY YOU LOVE ME BABY, WELL, PERHAPS MAYBE,
LET'S BE IN THE MOMENT, LET'S TALK ABOUT OUR HISTORY,
AND THE ONLY THING THAT I KNOW FOR SURE IS
I'M FEELING SO, SO INSECURE.
I'M GOING IN CIRCLES, I'M CAUGHT ON THE TIDE,
OUT OF CONTROL WITH NOWHERE TO HIDE
AND THE FACE IN THE MIRROR SHOWS ME THE CHILD WHO IS HURTING
SO DEEP INSIDE.
YOU SAY PLEASE STAY AND THEN YOU GO AWAY
HOLDING MY HAND YOU SAY COME CLOSE
BUT WHEN I TURN AROUND YOU'RE NOWHERE TO BE FOUND
I'M FEELING SO, SO, SO, SO CONFUSED.

JUPITER

LYRICS BY CHRISTINA LEE
WHAT IF THIS IS ALL THERE CAN BE
CYCLES OF LIFE AND MYSTERY
WHAT'S TO SHOW FOR WHAT WE'VE DONE
ON THIS PLANET OF BLUE THAT CIRCLES THE SUN?
ISN'T THERE MORE, MORE TO SEE
ISN'T THERE SOMETHING NEW
SOME MYSTERY TO EXPLORE?
WELL THEY SAY THAT JUPITER WILL BE HIT BY A METEORITE
AND BITS OF THE PLANET WILL BE BLOWN SKY HIGH
WHAT WILL BECOME OF THE SPACE IT LEAVES THERE
HOW DID IT HAPPEN, CAN WE REASON WHY?
ISN'T THERE MORE, MORE TO SEE
ISN'T THERE SOMETHING NEW
SOME MYSTERY TO EXPLORE.
WELL THE MOON RISES AND IT LOOKS PRETTY BIG
BUT IT SHRINKS AS IT CLIMBS TO THE STARS,
AND THEY TELL US THAT THE MAN WHO LIVES INSIDE
TAKES HIS HOLIDAYS ON MARS,
WELL I KNOW I'M IN AUSTRALIA 'CAUSE THE WATER IN THE BATHTUB
GOES DOWN A DIFFERENT WAY,
AND THE STARS HAVE ALL ARRANGED THEMSELVES UPDIDE DOWN
WHEN I GO OUTSIDE AND PRAY.
ISN'T THERE MORE, MORE TO SEE
ISN'T THERE SOMETHING NEW
SOME MYSTERY TO EXPLORE,
TO EXPLORE, TO EXPLORE, TO EXPLORE?
AND IF IT DOESN'T MATTER IF WE LIVE OR DIE
THEN WHY SHOULD IT MATTER IF WE LAUGH OR CRY,
AND IF IT DOESN'T MATTER IF WE LIVE OR DIE
THEN WHY SHOULD IT MATTER IF WE LAUGH OR CRY.
WELL I'VE SEEN THE DALAI LAMA AND HE SHOOK MY HAND
AND I'VE CARRIED MY BODY FROM LAND TO LAND,
I'VE SEEN MOUNTAINS AND RIVERS
AND HOLY SITES,
I'VE READ THE BOOKS AND I'VE TAKEN MY RIGHTS.
BUT ISN'T THERE MORE, MORE TO SEE
ISN'T THERE SOMETHING NEW
SOME MYSTERY TO EXPLORE,
TO EXPLORE, TO EXPLORE, TO EXPLORE?
AND IF IT DOESN'T MATTER IF WE LIVE OR DIE
THEN WHY SHOULD IT MATTER IF WE LAUGH OR CRY,
AND IF IT DOESN'T MATTER IF WE LIVE OR DIE
THEN WHY SHOULD IT MATTER IF WE LAUGH OR CRY.

LYRICS by KATHLEEN MURPHY
COME TO THAT PLACE
WITHIN YOURSELF
WHERE SILENCE DWELLS,
WHERE QUESTIONS FADE
AND ANSWERS ARE WORDS
ON A MERRY-GO-ROUND,
LIFT YOUR EYES SKYWARD AND FEEL THE WIND
CARRY YOU FAR AWAY
INTO MYSTERY, INTO MYSTERY.
I SEND MY ROOTS INTO THE EARTH
I AM MOUNTAIN ROCK AND ANCIENT TREE
AND AS THE GRASS GROWS BY ITSELF
I WATCH SILENTLY.
I SEND MY ROOTS INTO THE EARTH
I AM MOUNTAIN ROCK AND ANCIENT TREE
AND AS THE GRASS GROWS BY ITSELF
I WATCH SILENTLY.
CAN YOU HEAR THE WIND WHISPER YOUR NAME?
THE OCEAN WAVES SAY, COME PLAY, COME PLAY.
CAN YOU FEEL THE WAVES CARRY YOU OUT TO SEA?
I SEND MY ROOTS INTO THE EARTH
I AM MOUNTAIN ROCK AND ANCIENT TREE
AND AS THE GRASS GROWS BY ITSELF
I WATCH SILENTLY.
I SEND MY ROOTS INTO THE EARTH
I AM MOUNTAIN ROCK AND ANCIENT TREE
AND AS THE GRASS GROWS BY ITSELF
I WATCH SILENTLY.
COME TO THAT PLACE
WITHIN YOURSELF
WHERE SILENCE DWELLS,
WHERE QUESTIONS FADE
AND ANSWERS ARE WORDS
ON A MERRY-GO-ROUND,
LIFT YOUR EYES SKYWARD AND FEEL THE WIND
CARRY YOU FAR AWAY
INTO MYSTERY, INTO MYSTERY,
WATCHING SILENTLY,
INTO MYSTERY,
WATCHING SILENTLY,
INTO MYSTERY,
WATCHING SILENTLY,
INTO MYSTERY...
