Let's pretend lyrics

Let us shine together,
let's pretend that we are free,
let's all be where the angels
find us, we all have the key
shall we seal the truth of life
shall we light the heavens
we're so good at finding pleasure
as to what we are, and how we fit
together

Let us sing the song it is
let the sound of all belief
let's all find that space in life
to follow in between
it's something that I feel
to pour upon my soul
countenance of love
for one n' all
to know there's so many ways
the force of nature prevails
I lay down, I lay down and I pray

Let's get our hearts together
and as before, and like before
we'll do again

[interlude]

So let's get it all together
Let us shine
let's pretend that we are free,

[interlude]

With the silence of the sky
we're ready for the day
With the sun, that's shining in your eyes
and show the way
I can't deny
I can't repress the forces of the light
For in that moment I reach out and feel the very might
of your love.

 All through the night lyrics

Chances are you want me
Chances are I need to know.
Put your arms around me
When you want to say it's so.

No matter, no matter how I feel inside
Something that you kind of say, it spellbinds me.
To know it should touch
And so, and so, and so,
the way that you want me to know.

I know what you're thinking
When we're making love, it's good.
Like in every woman,
you know when you want, you should.

Feelings, feelings, seem forever alive.
No more than I want be your body
so close to my touch.
They touch, and so, and so, and so
You feel what I feel
Like never before.

Come give me your love.
All through the night
I want you by my side.
All through the night
I want what you want
The way you want things to be
In every woman you see.
Yeah.

No danger in experiencing
All that our bodies feel.
There's no amount of love
That you can't give and I receive.

Each and every woman has the right
to keep all she can give.
She can relax and let it show
Let it go, she can live for that touch
And so, and so,
How it is, how it is
When I hold you inside.

Come give me your love now.
All through the night
I want you by my side.
All through the night
I want what you want to for
We stay awake for you
Our every woman to be, you know.

You had to let yourself go.

[interlude]

Same as every woman
Same as every girl I know
Feels just what she wants to
Feels just what she needs to show.

Catching, catching all the thoughts
that every single man she wants to do.
Each movement always seems so right
Exactly what she's going through.

She needs to touch
And so, and so,
It's touching that brings you
close to every day that she lost.

Come give me your love now.
All through the night
I want you by my side.
All through the night
I wanna hold you closer
In my arms
Like a song coming out of my life.

Come give,
come give me your love now.
All through the night
I want you by my side.
All through the night
Every woman needs someone to love
To make them feel all right,
All right, all r..all right
All through the night.

Say what you will lyrics

They took the air from a golden balloon
As they trapped all the fish in the sea
A meaning
As if the perils had been disbelieved
Then escaped from the box
A relieving.

Say what you will when you will.
Say what you do when you don't, don't.
Say what you will when you will.
Say what you do when you don't, don't.

How many rhythms do you need to fill the sky above
And see me in a reggae machine?
How many torches do you need to set alight
Before the hour glass can see what you mean?

Heh, say what you will when you will.
Say what you do when you don't, don't.
Say what you will when you will.
Say what you do when you don't, don't, don't.

Oh, they're singing for nothing
Just an ordinary morning run,
some bell ringing in my ears
It's just a telephone warning
Not that it's a bit too late for this or that
As long as I remember which hat to wear
And how much time I've got to spare.
And see a smile comes out naturally.
I give a time this morning
to the great [Wannabe ? Funmoby?]
"How's it going, Mr. [Funmoby]?"
He smiles and says "How the hell
did you know our secret tongue?
Now it's no secret anymore, anymore!"

Some people tune the [cuckooly] to escape
With some relief from all the gas
in the world, it is known.
Some people never works the parks
or even really go the [largest]
never mentioned in the home.

It's all amazing how there's guys
who live in cages

And how much you
when in fact
would send a man to the moon.

There's always news of
urban crazy couple
living in a cage of catching on
to the golden balloon.

Say what you will when you will.
Say what you do when you don't, don't.
Say what you will when you will.
Say what you do when you don't, don't, don't, don't.

But you will know
how it's just like to see
in your fantasy
fully equipped with oriental lunacy
All the tranquillity
Yes, we will warm up
And give us some tender smiles
Far away from the cities
In expectable [extasy]
I got most warm today
in [our fiction] there
I hope you don't mind we're using them
It's just a gain sometimes somewhere
But there in my [ability]
Come marching out of sensibility
How I wish they ...
always could stop somehow!

[interlude]

They took the dark from a store
of carbon midnight
And stretched it along the city limits.
They took the sun from a solar night [to give]
And explained that they didn't need
any gimmicks.

Say what you will when you will.
Say what you do when you don't, don't.
Say what you will when you will, will.
Say what you do when you don't, don't, don't, don't.

The arms of love lyrics

And when I wake up to the days
I see the sunlight
like I see it for my many yesterdays.
But in my heart it's not the same,
'Cause when I turn to look for you,
I realize I'm alone again.

But let me put this point of view
I can be lost and lonely too.
No more afraid to say to myself
I miss you, I miss you.

[interlude]

So in these days I feel [sancturous]
To help me understand myself a little more.
I've learned one thing
That surprises me:
To be alone
Is not alone
As I thought it was before.

For who lights up this very dawn I see
When I feel the tears in my eyes?
Who lights the way when all around
The clouds are darkening my skies?

Trust is all I need.

Trust is all I know.
And the arms of love
To see my senses grow.

[interlude]

Who knows if I can discover myself
Who knows if I can contain the power
Say just what you might
Say just what you need
I feel better knowing
It's not for nothing
We are growing.

So when you ask me
Am I feeling OK,
I only know I'm waking up
To all my days
Looking for your help
Looking for your trust
And the arms of love.
The arms of love
The arms of love
The arms of love

Distant thunder lyrics

Why this consciousness this desire
to expand the flame of revolution
with a gothic hand of fire persecution
blood-letting and spinning pain?

How it shouts and screams with
the sound of freedoms.
They shout it out again and again,
and with a chance
Let them do it, in justice
And practice out of hand
Do I

[All they caused] started long ago
[All they caused] started long ago
[All they caused] started long ago
[All they caused] started long ago

Why this hungry media delivering (All they caused started long ago)
questions answers blessed forgivers 
Millions of racial inequalities (All they caused started long ago) We all
are one!
We all are sacred!

Be the birth of a nation (All they caused started long ago)
Stop this aggravation
so uninspired
Ask the question part of man's inhumanity
and lack of love to our cosmic god

Children of light,
spread everywhere
Children of light,
haven't you heard?
Dark are the days
in black and white
Children of light,
don't be afraid!
Come on!

Show me sweet vision
of to wake the beauty from the beast
Show you something light,
show you something light.
Show me sweet vision
of to wake the beauty from the beast
Show you something light
Show you something light

Wow , wow ...

[Sure we have,] the sun will shine
Our future is our great divine
Don't lose it
Don't lose it
[Sure we have,] the sun will shine
Our future is our great divine
Don't lose it.
Don't lose it, lose it

Children of light,
spread everywhere
Children of light,
haven't you heard?
Dark are the days
in black and white
Children of light,
don't be afraid,
don't be afraid!

[interlude]

Distant as the distant thunder
where people crawl and rent assunder
where equal rights for equal people
disregard for love's equality

Bringing down the backs to no-man's land
where diamonds and gold in hand
will barter as the homeless burn and starve
Someday will it be our turn?
Someday will it be our turn?

Children of light,
spread everywhere
Children of light,
haven't you heard?
Dark are the days
in black and white
Children of light,
don't be afraid,
don't be afraid!

Wisdom chain lyrics

Doo da, da
Did we know the Seven Rays throughout reality
We see how wonderful releasing it is.
Do we cross the Great Divide that spellbinds us
to one degree, this further dimension it is.

Locked in our memory.
Locked in the wisdom chain.
Locked in our memories.
Locked in the wisdom chain.

Do we chase within without, this glowing world,
Come on come out, this future tradition it is.
Can we learn to memorize this mesmerizing music,
Planetary transition it is.

Locked in our memory (locked in our memory)
locked in this wisdom chain (locked in the wisdom chain)
locked in our memories (locked in our memories)
locked in the world of the first
the first time...the first time...the first time
Heaven, heaven, heaven (heaven, heaven)

Watching milli-magnified this fast approaching change of pace
we enter in this human, Love ! Love !
Learning quickly enterprising rhythms of the wisdom chain
For really all purpose, Love ! Love !

watching us watching (bringing the wisdom chain)
bringing the wisdom chain
watching us watching (watching us, watching us, watching us)
Success!

[interlude]

locked in our memory
locked in the wisdom chain (locked in our memory)
locked in our memory
locked in the wisdom chain (locked in the wisdom chain)

locked in our memory
locked in the wisdom chain (locked in our memory)
locked in our memory
locked in the wisdom chain (locked in the wisdom chain)
locked in our memory
locked in the wisdom chain (locked in our memory)
locked in our memory (wisdom chain)
locked in the wisdom chain (locked in the wisdom chain)
locked in our memory (wisdom chain)
locked in the wisdom chain (locked in our memory)
locked in our memory (wisdom chain)
locked in the wisdom chain (locked in the wisdom chain)
locked in our memory (wisdom chain)
locked in the wisdom chain (locked in the wisdom chain)

We will know the Seven Rays throughout reality
We see how wonderful releasing it is.
We will cross the Great Divide that spellbinds us
To one degree, this further dimension it is.

without within (without within, the wisdom chain) music is ours
music is ours (without within, the wisdom chain)
without within (without within, the wisdom chain)
long is the wisdom chain (without within, the wisdom chain)
without within (without within)
love is the perfect place
love is the perfect place

here is the wisdom chain
here is the wisdom chain
here is the wisdom chain (here)
here is the wisdom chain (here is the wisdom chain)
here is the wisdom chain (here)
here is the wisdom chain (here is the wisdom chain)
here is the wisdom chain (here)
here is the wisdom chain (here is the wisdom chain)

Moneymadness lyrics

Have you seen the magazine
Where all the rich, the kings and queens,
Presidents of politics
And emperors of oh so clean.

Oh so clean.....oh so clean
Oh so clean.....oh so clean

Song for money. Song for money.
Song for money. Song for money.
Song for money. Song for money.
Song for money. Song for money.

The system loves the richest boy,
The richest sheiks of Arabie.
The system loves the richest girl.
A modern mind is climbing free.
The walls are clean, the body dry,
no memory can confuse her why
Because if I'm not there this way,
our crazyness is here to stay

Money, money, money, money, money - MONEY!
Money, money, money, money, money - MONEY!

Money, money, money, money, money, money, money, money
Money, money, money, money, money, money, money, money

Have you seen the shouts us down,
we overroll Manhattan town, we
Hold the uncle by the family,
fakers countin' Tokyo 'round me

Money, money, money, money, money - MONEY!

Song for money. Song for money.
Song for money. Song for money.
Song for money. Song for money.
Song for money. Song for money.
When you got conspiracy.

[interlude]

Money grubs,
Money greeds,
Money chops,
Money speeds,
Money breaks,
Money burns.
Wait a minute! Wait a minute!

It's only money.
It's only money.
It's only money.
It's only money.

Garden of senses lyrics

Days of the garden.
Days in the sun.
Warm in my secret.
Lost in your eyes.

[interlude]

Love, sweet as water.
Love, sweet as wine.

[interlude]

Love, in the moonlight.
Sing with your heart.
(Tell me there's a muse and you know what)
(you do when you sing when you talk when you)

(love with your heart-strings)
Love in the sunlight (Hold me, hold me)
Sing with your heart (hold me, hold me)
(Tell me there's a muse and you know what)
(you do when you sing when you talk when you)
(love with your heart-strings)

With your heart
With your heart
With your heart
(Tell me there's a muse and you know what)
(you do when you sing when you talk when you)
(love with your heart-strings)
With your heart
With your heart

Shine for me lyrics

Shine for me,
I'll shine for you,
Each waking dawn,
Each day.

Let these words,
Please, let this song
Take you so
Completely.

You have the gift of love.
You have the gift of life.
Take whatever you need.

Be the light.
For once, be sure.
Be the light
you are.

You are the sound of love.
You are the sound of life.
Take whatever you need.

More will come as you reopen
All your senses changing.
Once you have seen,
Be awake to this life song.

Shine for me,
I'll shine for you,
Each waking dawn,
Each day.

You are the gift of love.
You are the gift of life.
Take whatever you need.

Sing with your eyes lyrics

Don't be afraid look at me
Sing with your eyes
What you see with your heart

Now don't be shy
Speak to me
Deep in your soul the three words
I love you

Other nights come back to you
Other times they follow you
See the moon it's been out
Many times
Many times

Does the sun forget the world
See the sun begin the day
Some are born
Some are loved
Some are lost and alone

Don't be afraid hold on to me
Sing with your eyes
What you feel with your heart

Think with your dreams
Don't try to hard
All questions will float
Away and fly

[interlude]

Please be with me in every dream
Fly by my side I wait here forever
Don't be afraid hold on to me
Sing with your eyes
What you feel in your heart
