In My Minds Eye
04:07
|

Still lake eyes
Bright and kind
Oh how do they know
Full like hearts
Reaching out
Dying to be known
In your mothers likeness
Endowed always with soul
In my minds eye
We're still in love
Lilac skies
Brave tonight
All for letting go
Fields of hope
Running home
Always on and on
In your mothers likeness
Endowed always with soul
In my minds eye
We're still in love
Beating hearts we're waisting time
All on heartache
Be like water
Rest in clouds
Always dreaming

My old friend
Dearest one
Steeped in silence
Loud as love
Sweet Balm
Of Gurrumul
Ancient Hearts resound
In one love
mmm I'm listening
Don't wait, don't wait
I'm Listening
This old coat
My lucky one
Sparkles lonely heart
Every night
Old stars
They're always right
Boundless hearts reside
In one love
mmm I'm listening
Don't wait, don't wait
I'm Listening

UNDERGROUND
04:27
|

Bright eyed on the trail of hope
A friend like this is rare like gold
On those cold nights
By the street lights
To the sound of the merriment
You were heartfelt
With a vision
Open palms with no ill intent
Just a feeling, Just like water
Time won't wait
There's no fate
But what we make
Diamonds are found
Way down underground
Shining in the dark
So lonely
Art lived on the edge of town
I met him twice
First time at the park
We got talking
Telling stories
Making sense of the lonely bends
He said heartache was a teacher
But love was his only friend
Just a feeling, Just like water
Time won't wait
There's no fate
But what we make
Diamonds are found
Way down underground
Shining in the dark
So lonely
Janis is the loveliest of souls
Lost one child
Lives with her ghost
She keeps giving
Giving sunshine
Selling flowers at the market place
She's a sonet
Or a sunrise
Everytime I caught her glance
Just a feeling, Just like water
Time won't wait
There's no fate
But what we make
Diamonds are found
Way down underground
Shining in the dark
So lonely

GREEN CLOVER
03:49
|
|||
In the darkest night
Awaits the day
And the morning star
To lead the way
Far to the future
There lies the meaning
Hues warm and white
Small crimson flowers
You speak of love
In quiet wonder
Where is this life of milk and honey
Light, be my true north
Be my one and only true
Friend
And the trail does run
Along the range
And the fiery sun
She burns away
Like a lonely pilgrim
With kind demeanour
Hues clear and gold
Above still water
And the demons eye
turns to green clover
Where is this life of milk and honey
Light, be my true north
Be my one and only true
Friend

Palace Lights
04:26
|
|||
I will rise and go tonight
A quiet moon, a hum inside
Step by step along the stone wall
Hold my breath as I reach your door
And we run towards the palace lights
Full of loves sweet appetite
Through silver gates we make our way
High on the roof of the world to play
So alive as the four winds blow
and scatter emblems beyond the walls
To distant lakes, to the poets hearth
To steal your kiss beneath the stars
And we run towards the palace lights
Full of loves sweet appetite
Through silver gates we make our way
High on the roof of the world to play
All your work is done
But the fire still remains
And through the coals and ashes
You will return some day
Like clouds on the horizon
Like a promise made
Like thunder, like thunder
ooh ooh ooh"
I will rise and go tonight
A quiet moon, a hum inside
Step by step along the stone wall
Hold my breath as I reach your door
And we run towards the palace lights
Full of loves sweet appetite
Through silver gates we make our way
High on the roof of the world to play
All your work is done
But the fire still remains
And through the coals and ashes
You will return some day
Like clouds on the horizon
Like a promise made
Like thunder, like thunder
ooh ooh ooh"

Sweet Times
by Yhan Leal
Copyright 2018
APRA AMCOS
We once walked through fire
Colours red and gold
We were camped up by the crater
Laughing at the sky
We were born right there together
They were sweet times
Like clay to the river
Unformed, undefined
We were stone cold soul resistors
Crystallising hope
Oh I wish you could remember
All those sweet times
Army of time
I shed my last tear
The lotus and the rose
The seeing eye
The lonely road
So amazed that I made it
Living my life whole
And I got myself a woman
Children and a life
Oh I wish we were together
Sharing sweet times
Army of time
I shed my last tear
The lotus and the rose
The seeing eye
The lonely road

Love won't wait
Burns like a fireball
Brave like a sailor
Off to the end of the world
Ask if I belong
Old long story
Years from now
All but a whisper
Fly like a gull
No time to perish
I've dreamed it all
Life is a miracle
She was a prize like the carnival in May
Joy will come
Sure as Sunday
Calm like a prairie
Morning awakens
Run like a fox
No time to despair
I dreamed it all
Life is a miracle
She was a prize like the carnival in May

It's fate, the sweet sound of rustling leaves
Always reminds me of the time
The old house, she creaks and gives away
Our quiet lives apart
The gardens hum with life
Darkness has no place
And I hear the wind call softly
All roads lead home
That's where I want to go
Rainbows hide from the sun
You say walk but I wanna run, run
It's fate, the day came I saw you walking by
The scent of forest pines
The spirits soared and broke away
Like fireflies alight
I promised mountains I'd move
mmmmm
Now I know why the wind calls softly
All roads lead home
That's where I want to go
Rainbows hide from the sun
You say walk but I wanna run, run

Luna you're the best thing that's happened to me
You're my guiding star, the honey to the Bee
Now I carry my things in just one bag
And each town I pass through
I hear someone laugh
But I want you to know for what it's worth
I'm sorry
Luna you're the only thing I dream
The sky holds many stars, but only one for me
Now I howl like a Wolfe, at the moon in the night
And I sing just one song about fighting for your life
But I want you to know for what it's worth
I'm sorry
Luna you're the only one I need
This land boasts many sights, but you're the one I seek
Now I watch as the world just passes on by
And I keep just one thought that's dear to me this life
But I want you to know for what it's worth
I'm sorry

As I Hear Her
Talk A While
Trees Sway Unmoved
Breathing Life
Blue Stones Keep Away
The Dark Of Night
Though Our Love Is Heaven Sent
Leaves Fall As The Wind Blows
mmmm
As I follow Her
Through The Room
Roses On Her Shoulder
Dragonfly
Dawn Breaks Like A Tidal Wave
I'm Still Alive
Though Our Love Is Heaven Sent
Leaves Fall As The Wind Blows
mmmm

To The Sun And The Moon
04:25
|
|||
Saw you alone
Waving from the shore
The morning radiant
Water Glistening
Spoke from your heart
Missing not a beat
You made so much sense
Not locked or reticent
A rose in bloom
A butterfly looms
A hopeful happy song
For you I'd run to the sun and the moon
For you I'd run, to the sun and the moon
Felt the whole sky
Painting your dream
Long shadows on the ground
A forest breathing in
Open the vault
Run through the Vines
Collect all that's salient
All that's innocent
A rose in bloom
A butterfly looms
A hopeful happy song
For you I'd run to the sun and the moon
For you I'd run, to the sun and the moon

Gather In April
04:03
|

Gather in April after the Rains
When those long dark clouds part again
Maybe you're married, maybe the same
Free like that river, we once played in
We made a promise, riding those trains
To demystify this crazy game
We said we'd open the doors
Let all that light shine in
Gather in April, out by the way
through those winding roads that never end
Gold leaves in hollow black trunks engraved
Read life in symbols from deep within
I dreamed us all there warmed by the rays
And stop to listen to Autumns day
We said we'd open the doors
Let all that light shine in
Gather feelings, gather good times, gather all you know
Gather heartache, gather silence, gather courage
Gather all your hope, gather love
We said we'd open the doors
Let all that light shine in

Oh Wild Lohanna you lay sleeping so serene
Your myths and dreams are far from here and the places I have been
I travelled through an endless night to stand here in the sun
High on the mountain top on the brink of what I'd done
Oh I, I was lost, lost but not alone
Oh sights of all that's dear to those who's love is blind
Stir and wake and greet me in the morning then remind
Something I was searching for so many years ago
Living like a lonely mist with no valley to call home
Oh I, I was lost, lost but not alone
Oh friends you carried me, spent time right by your side
Watched and learned, made some notes took it all within my stride
Funny then the world turned cold, I called out and you were there
I only wish there will be no need to call back in despair
Oh I, I was lost, lost but not alone
|

Dawn breaks along time ago
Listening to the morning song
Snowflakes abandon the heavens
Landing softly in flashes of light
May this circle stay unbroken
Save me at last
Rain falling, wash away my sorrow
Cleanse my tears, quicken me once more
Laughter fill me with joy
Hold me up to the great big sky
May this circle stay unbroken
Save me at last
Follow peace the wise say
Don't be distracted by the crowd
Follow peace the Daoists say
Let nature be our guiding light
May this circle stay unbroken
Save me at last

In this box there's a lifetime of sweet memories
And a story behind each and everyone
And though the road leads on towards the sunset
Tomorrow holds the promise
That we can start again
Start again
There's no scarier time than when you're all alone
There's no scarier time than when you've got no place to go
I was making my way to the top of the greenest hill
But fate had other plans, it was a lonely deal
Lonely deal
All these flames burn away inside like forest fires
Send my name down the line let then know i'm getting out
That's the way it goes no one really knows
That's the way it goes no one really knows
That's the way it goes no one really knows
That's the way it goes no one really knows
oh oh oh oh
In the night there's a light shining from a sweet reverie
And a hint of a smile that reaches everyone
And though the past lingers on and echoes off the walls
Tonight holds the promise that we can start again
Start again
All these flames burn away inside like forest fires
Send my name down the line let then know i'm getting out
That's the way it goes no one really knows
That's the way it goes no one really knows
That's the way it goes no one really knows
That's the way it goes no one really knows
oh oh oh oh

You were only 5 when he left
No-one could say where or when
You would land far from anywhere
Talking on your radio
I just wanna feel safe
I just wanna be content
Somewhere on the blue horizon
Friends they seek good times with you
Forever is now if you'd notice
Wrote it in your manifesto
I just wanna feel safe
I just wanna have a friend
Somewhere in the white asylum
Talking to yourself in moments
Why I gotta be here
There must be some mistake
Let me make a phone call
I know I gotta be somewhere
You were only 5 when he left
No-one could say where or when
Making shapes from clouds above
Singing through your radio
I just wanna feel safe
I just wanna be content
