"Bless The Wings (That Bring You Back)"

by the Moody Blues


Like the rose that blooms in the wintertime
As it reaches up through the snow
The more life keeps apart
The more love will grow
Like the seed that grows in the darkness
As it reaches up to the sun
I will always reach out for you
'Cos you are the one

I bless the wings that bring you back to me
Back across the shore
If I could touch you now my darling
And love you just once more
If I could hold you, hold you, hold you,
I know you'd understand,
I know you'd understand.

As I cross the bridge by the waterfall
As I make my way by the stars
There's a shadow walking beside me
Here in my heart
Like the restless wind in the tree tops
Like a whispered voice in my ear
I will always be there for you
I'll always be here

I bless the wings that bring you back to me
Back across the shore
If I could touch you now my darling
And love you just once more
If I could hold you, hold you, hold you,
I know you'd understand,
I know you'd understand.

In a far off wonderland
That flashes past my eyes
The kiss of inspiration that was mine
The dust of many centuries
Has blown across this land
But love will not be scattered by the sand

Like the sunrise over the mountainside
Like the bird that has to be free
There's a part of you that will always be
Part of me
Like the seed that grows in the darkness
I will always reach out for you
'Cos you are the one

I bless the wings that bring you back to me
Back across the shore
If I could touch you now my darling
And love you just once more
If I could hold you, hold you, hold you,
I know you'd understand,
I know you'd understand,
I know you'd understand,
I know you'd understand.

Are you Sitting Comfortably flowerforyou


Take another sip my love
and see what you will see,
A fleet of golden galleons,
on a crystal sea.
Are you sitting comfortably?
Let Merlin cast his spell.flowerforyou

Ride along the winds of time
and see where we have been,
The glorious age of Camelot,
when Guinevere was Queen.
It all unfolds before your eyes
As Merlin casts his spell. flowerforyou

The seven wonders of the world
he'll lay before your feet,
In far-off lands, on distant shores,
so many friends to meet.
Are you sitting comfortably?
Let Merlin cast his spell. flowerforyou

Now you know that you are real,
Show your friends that you and me
Belong to the same world,
Turned on to the same word,

Living all your life at ease.

A look down life's hallways, doorways,
To lead you there.drinker

Scatter good seed in the field
Life's ours for the making
Eternity's waiting, waiting
For you and me flowerforyou

Show your friends that you and me
Belong to the same world
Turned on to the same word
Have you heard

Chillin of the Evening by Arlo Guthrie drinker

http://ca.youtube.com/watch?v=1S2m2piqH2I&feature=related

http://ca.youtube.com/watch?v=ZKTSh5wyGzU&feature=related


Warm me from the wind & take my hand
A song is sounding, softly singing
My song is cast upon the rainbow waves
Forever splashing in the sunlight
Prove to me there's a love still left
In all of this emptiness around me
Take me from the chilling of the evening

Though you know my love that I must go
A-following the winds that blow inside me
I've nowhere left to run or hide
Except if you will come & run beside me
And even if you do
there'll be a lot for us to do
To keep believing
Take me from the chilling of the evening

And now my time has come down many streets
I'm coming from a night decaying
The song that itself sings is all alone
I cannot even hear it playing
Now to leave before I understand
Just what it is I know I'm leaving
Take me from the chilling of the evening

Departure by Graeme Edge of the Moody Blues
http://ie.youtube.com/watch?v=PnTm8viqyBg

Be it sight, sound, smell or touch
There's something inside that means so much
The sight of the touch
Or the scent of the sound
Or the strength of an oak
With roots deep in the ground
The wonder of flowers to be covered
& then to burst up
Through tarmac
To the sun again
Or to fly to the sun
Without burning a wing
To lie in a meadow
& hear the grass sing
To have all these things
In our memories hoard
& to use them
To help us
To find...

Visions Of Paradise
http://ie.youtube.com/watch?v=hfc1Q8LiNw8
Justin Hayward & Ray Thomas

The sounds in my mind just come to me
Come see, come see
& the call of her eyes makes waterfalls
Of me, of me
In the garden of her love I'll stay awhile
To be, to be
What the seeds of her thoughts once mean to me
Come see, come see
Visions of paradise
In cloudless skies I see
Rainbows on the hill
Blue onyx on the sea
Come see
& the sounds in my mind just come to me
Come see, come see
And the call of her eyes makes waterfalls
Of me, of me

The Actor
Justin Hayward

The curtain rises on the scene
With someone chanting to be free
The play unfolds before my eyes
There stands the actor, who is me
The sleeping hours takes us far
Through traffic, telephones & fear
Put out your problems with the cat
Escape until a bell you hear
Our reasons are the same
But there's no one we can blame
For there's nowhere we need go
& the only truth we know
Comes so easily
The sound I have heard in your hello
Oh, darlin', you're almost part of me
Oh, darlin', you're all I'll ever see
It's such a rainy afternoon
No point in going anywhere
The sounds just drift across my room
I wish this feeling I could share
It's such a rainy afternoon
She sits & gazes from her window
Her mind tries to recall his face
The feeling deep inside her grows
Our reasons are the same
But there's no one we can blame
For there's nowhere we need go
And the only truth we know
Comes so easily
The sound I have heard in your hello
Oh, darlin', you're almost part of me
Oh, darlin', you're all I'll ever see
The sound I have heard in your hello
Oh, darlin', you're all I'll ever see
Oh, darlin', you're almost part of me
