I. Sleeping Wide Awake
|
|
Once, not so long ago
|
I lived far below
|
Where you are
|
I didn't even know
|
Home was far a way
|
I was sleeping wide-awake
|
Breaking down
|
Waiting for the sound
|
|
But I can hear it now
|
Is it all too late
|
'Cause I would sell my dreams
|
If I could be awake
|
If I could be awake
|
|
There - waling into walls
|
Piercing through the pain
|
Here we are
|
Reaching through the rain
|
I almost caught a glimpse
|
To feel that Sunday high
|
I would fall
|
This makes no sense at all
|
|
But I can hear it now
|
Not a single word
|
And though I'd strain my voice
|
I cannot be heard
|
Outside the smile
|
The insider breaks
|
And I would give my dreams
|
If I could be awake
|
|
Whatever you're looking for
|
Don't ever start looking behind
|
Whatever you want to change
|
You better start changing your mind
|
'Cause everything can be done
|
Stand up 'cause this is your time
|
|
II. Hanging in the Balance
|
|
Go where you're going to
|
You can rule your mind
|
You will not decay
|
Decay is always waiting
|
You've got nowhere to go
|
So you look behind
|
What you sought to find
|
Is always fading
|
|
Wish to be wishless
|
Less can live evermore
|
More doesn't satisfy
|
The deeper meaning
|
Lose if you want to find
|
Find what you're looking for
|
For all your dreams can live
|
Live as if to satisfy the meaning
|
|
Whatever you're looking for
|
Don't ever start looking behind
|
Whatever you want to change
|
You better start changing your mind
|
'Cause everything can be done
|
Stand up 'cause this is your time
|
|
Drink in the big dream
|
Dream but you have to wait
|
Wait 'til you get it right
|
Write down every letter
|
Paint with the broadest strokes
|
Stroke through the deepest sea
|
See what you have in mind
|
To make it better
|
|
Get in on the ground floor
|
Floor to ceiling is so high
|
High will become the low
|
It will make sense
|
|
Want always wants some more
|
More is never enough
|
Enough is enough
|
Remember life is hanging in the balance
|
|
Whatever you're looking for
|
Don't ever start looking behind
|
Whatever you want to change
|
You better start changing your mind
|
'Cause everything can be done
|
Stand up 'cause this is your time
|
|
III. Lost and Found Pt. 2
|
|
Don't you think if you could be lost
|
Don't you think you can be found
|
Don't you think if you were the world, you'd turn it around
|
|
Whatever you're looking for
|
Don't ever start looking behind
|
Whatever you want to change
|
You better start changing your mind
|
'Cause everything can be done
|
Stand up 'cause this is your time
|
|
IV. Awakening the Stranger
|
|
In the time it takes to be lost or found
|
In the wake of something not for the crowd
|
Awakening the stranger in your soul
|
It isn't always quite that easy
|
Awakening the stranger in your soul
|
|
All the rage the wolrd goes on outside
|
It's alright come in here - it's safe to hide
|
Awakening the stranger in your soul
|
Is more than just a thought or feeling
|
There is no wordly danger beyond control
|
Awakening the stranger in your soul
|
|
V. Slide
|
|
Give up all the reasons that you know
|
Slide down where the time move nice and slow
|
Ease back and relax
|
No figures and no fax
|
Awakening the stranger in your soul
|
|
It's alright to give up your control (come in where it's safe-there is no I)
|
Move along we've paid your expressway toll (look at all the others floating
|
high) It's the 5:00 am alarm
|
No time to use your charm
|
Surrender is the only way to go
|
Awakening the stranger in your soul
|
No thought for yourself you just let go
|
|
VI. Stranger in Your Soul
|
|
When you come to make love, your only goal
|
Words cannot describe the feeling
|
Awakening the stranger in your soul
|
From the shadow to the deepest meaning
|
|
When you come to make love your only goal
|
Words cannot describe the feeling
|
Now we're here in full sight - we can be whole
|
Let's dive and never hit the ceiling
|
|
There - walking into walls
|
Piercing through the pain
|
Here we are
|
Reaching through the rain
|
I almost caught a glimpse
|
Brighter than the sky
|
A child grown
|
A stranger coming home
|
|
And I can hear it now
|
Every single word
|
And when I strain my voice
|
I will be assured
|
Outside the storm
|
But here the big break
|
That I might chance to dream
|
That I be awake
|
Awakening the stranger in your soul
|
