Blessings in Stone
06:51

|
I’m runnin’ around the sun, fast as I can go
20 years passes in a blink.
I’m runnin’ the sun, how many can I know?
It’s quality not quantity I think…
Had my head, bank, and heart broke
more than enough
What didn’t kill me, made me tender/tough.
My Spirit has survived to the other side
past suicidal plans and blame
onto forgiveness from shame…
CHORUS
But, You gotta learn to write your woundings in sand
and your Blessings in stone.
Man, just from where I stand,
that’s all you need to know.
You gotta learn to write your woundings in sand
and your Blessings in stone.
As you’re runnin’ around the sun you get to meet everyone
who’s ready to turn a page.
If you can turn the cheek, you can turn the world.
This planets too small for rage.
You gotta hear what I say.
CHORUS
For all that we need is here
and all that we need to do
is shed this fear…
I wanna be the “Hundredth Monkey” to change the world
to get the grip,…to get the girl.
Don’t you wannna be the Planet that get’s the hit?
This is it! Take care of it. O Brothers get over it.
CHORUS

This Moment

|
I’m good to go
back to the Garden.
All I wanna know is…
will you come with me?
The past has been rough
with our hearts so broken.
It could be enough
just to celebrate with you!
Chorus
What can I do, to make your life better
than it ever was before I came through?
What can I do, to help you understand
still the very best is yet to come?
What can I do, to make your life better
than it ever was before I came to,
this moment with you?
My Love waits.
It’s here for you.
What does it take,
just to let the mystery through?
Chorus

Evolution of Revolution
07:30
|
|||
|
It’s coming’ up from the root,
and down from heaven,
from a black hole in the center of space.
Pick up the pen,
move the mouse,
share your car, share your house!
It’s the Evolution of Revolution
in your mind.
It’s the Evolution of Revolution
this time!
It’s the Evolution of Revolution
Whatcha got to say? (right across your bow)
It’s the Evolution of Revolution
here today…here today (here now)
Change comes slow’
but it happens fast,
like a fire in the grass.
The shift is under way,
it should be here Tuesday.
It couldn’t come soon enough!
Chorus
It’s the evolution, of consciousness…
step up to the new view.
We’re changing the way we see.
we’re changing our destiny…
not a minute too soon.
Chorus

O Angel, who watches over me
never need I ask of you.
Simply always, and ever there, somehow to pull me through.
How I’d almost lost it, many a time, coming through the dark.
Till a tap on the shoulder, or a voice in my ear
and Angel is there.
Harken the herald angels together
ye mortals here on earth
would like to say that we’re on our way
stumbling through our birth
(stumbling to prove our worth)
O Angel, who watches over me
stay close up the road ahead.
Not doing as well as usual,
yet I’m not quite ready for dead.
For I get a feeling’ I’m soon to be born again
from inside this same old body.
For theres work to do, and things I don’t yet understand
that I’ve got to get through.
CHORUS
And here in this world and this incarnation
man seeks to find
grace in the dance of daily livin’
balance and poise of mind.
Indebted to you our Angels
and to the unseen keepers of this plane.
We, we can never rest, until unto angel hood, we’re ordained.
CHORUS

Sparrows
06:30
|
|||
|
Sparrows know, when it’s time for them to go
Winds blow, seasons change, and they know
Chorus
But you and me, is it so hard to see
that you and me, must change (we’ve got to change)
Leaves fall, under snow they’ll soon lie sleeping
They all, have died for roots a feeding
Chorus
Changing leaves, changing seasons
Changing weaves, changing reasons
Changing change, for the ride,…for the ride inside
Water knows, where it flows, it will go
Water shows a way in which to go
Chorus
Sparrows know, when it’s time for them to go
Winds blow, seasons change, and they know…and they know,… and they know………

White Water
05:27
|
|||
|
I am a crude stone on my path.
I fell from down yonder valley deep.
I have been living all my life…
to tumble in to the sea.
Chorus
So I am here upon this river
tumble me through the rapids (the changes) (with the froth and the fray)
White Water …White Water…
I’ll be a smooth stone in good time,
on my journey around to find,
that I have been living all my life…
to tumble in to the sea.
Chorus
When you see me wash up upon that shore,
new will I come back for more.
For I have been dying, all my life…
to tumble in to the sea.
Chorus
…till White Water brings me home, to stay.
