Time on your hands
You doodle the day
Shuffle your feet
And turn on the news
To hear what they might say
They've made a machine
A new fangled device
They're lighting the fuse
There's no need to worry
Your world will be alright
Time for a smoke
A pint and a joke
You muddle on through
Silently screaming
What can I do?
Till time trips you out
Larking about
Blows you away
High as a kite
On a windy day

| Unevensong |

Sleepless nights, restless days
Memories of her gentle ways
Love locked out looks for a home
A place to find a shelter from the storm
She said you are the air I breathe
The life I love, the dream I weave
Without a word, with just a touch
Now I realize you meant so much
Been awake so long
I feel like I belong
With the rain
Morning light appears
The feelings of the night
Remain
Somewhere inbetween
The waking and the dream
Feel you close to me

| A song within a song |
|---|
The sun has left the sky
Now you can close your eyes
Leave the world behind until tomorrow
The dream is like a song
It leads you on and on
The piper plays his tune so you must follow
So far beyond the sky
Not knowing how or why
You realize this feeling is forever
And though another day
May steal your dreams away
You and the song will always stay together

| Never let go |
|---|
Crazy creatures of our doom
Telling us there is no room.
Not enough for all mankind
And the seas of time are running dry.
Don't they know it's a lie...
Man is born with the will to survive,
He'll not take no for an answer.
He will get by, somehow he'll try,
He won't take no, never let go, no...
I hear them talk about Kingdom Come,
I hear them discuss Armageddon...
They say the hour is getting late,
But I can still hear someone say,
This is not the way...
Man is born with the will to survive,
He'll not take no for an answer.
He will get by, somehow he'll try,
He won't take no, never let go, no...

| Lady fantasy |
|---|
Listen very carefully, my words are about to unfold
Concerning a lady I've seen but I never could hold
I can see by your smile,
Take a long while,
The words that come through,
I see that they're true,
For she reminds me of you.
Don't misunderstand me, it's not always easy to say
The words in your head and your heart that you just can't explain
I can see clearly,
A face in the sky,
Moon's in your eye,
You're passing me by.
Tell me the reason why.
I can see clearly,
A face in the sky,
Moon's in your eye,
You're passing me by.
Saw you riding on a moon cloud,
Saw you walking on a whirlpool,
From the corner of my eye,
I saw you.
Saw you sitting on a sunbeam,
In the middle of my daydream,
Oh my Lady Fantasy,
I love you.

| White Rider |
|---|
When he rides, my fears subside,
For darkness turns once more to light.
Through the skies, his white horse flies,
To find a land beyond the night.
Once he wore grey, he fell and slipped away
From everybody's sight.
The wizard of them all, came back from his fall
This time wearing white.
He has a certain air, as if he's never there,
But somehow far away.
And though he seems afar, like a distant star.
His warm he can convey.

| Another Night |
|---|
Dark clouds before our eyes
Can't face the morning skies
Day comes a day too soon
I'm waiting for that silver moon
Maybe I'm wrong
But I'm feeling like another night
Would make it alright
Twilight is fading through
Seems like I'm fading too
How can I believe it's real
When nothing starts to stop this wheel?
