00:00He is the light, He is the way

00:27He is the morning sun, the evening, the day

00:38He is the door, He is the key

00:46He is all these things and many more to me

00:57And many more to me

01:06This is a song that you will sing

01:31He is the gift of life and all that love can bring

01:42He is the one to whom I pray

01:50He is all these things and more than I can say

02:00And more than I can say

02:30He is the gift of life and all that love can bring

03:00He is the gift of life and all that love can bring

03:31Wind song, laying gently in the grass, see them dance

03:43The old widow weeps for a bird song so sweet, so eloquently, there's a past

04:13The old widow weeps for a bird song so sweet, so eloquently, there's a past

04:26Wind song, laying gently in the grass, see them dance

04:37The old widow weeps for a bird song so sweet, so eloquently, there's a past

04:49Wind song, laying gently in the grass, see them dance

05:00The old widow weeps for a bird song so sweet, so eloquently, there's a past

05:10Winter comes fast and the snow hides the grass

05:35But I show no regret, for I know that the promise of spring is in all living things

05:51That's why the autumn leaves laugh

05:56In the wind

06:27Lightly steps the minstrel to the melody remembered in his eyes

06:36The sound of autumn drifting through the meadow golden warm beneath blue skies

06:45All the world's a song to the man who dreams in harmony and rhyme

06:54Joyfully replayed by fingers dancing in and out of other times

07:24Side cold north wind nips at the heels of people passing by the way

07:40The minstrel's by the fire reminiscing near and gently start to play

07:49Now close your eyes and listen well for this world of ice and snow might melt away

07:58As all the days of spring he picks for you a fresh and beautiful bouquet

08:20Now close your eyes and listen well for this world of ice and snow might melt away

08:28As all the days of spring he picks for you a fresh and beautiful bouquet

08:36Now close your eyes and listen well for this world of ice and snow might melt away

08:46Ice and snow

08:59Ice and snow

09:16Ice and snow

09:30We who have waited so long in the wings with our song

09:35Come it's time now to move

09:39We take a chance if we all join our hands

09:43They might soon see what lovers can do

09:47We sing

10:08There'll come a time when whole towns will join in

10:12Youngsters, adults and the old

10:15When cool will be something you'll feel in the autumn

10:21When wealth won't be just what you can hold

10:24They'll sing

10:43Ice and snow

10:48Ice and snow

10:52Ice and snow

10:57Ice and snow

11:02Ice and snow

11:08Ice and snow

11:21As it began and the end again shall be

11:25But in between we've much to be done

11:29So remember this song and remember this feeling

11:34Remember to keep right on keeping on singing

12:05Allelu, Allelu, Allelu, Allelu, Allelu, Allelu

12:13Allelu, Allelu, Allelu, Allelu, Allelu, Allelu

12:22Allelu, Allelu, Allelu, Allelu, Allelu, Allelu, Allelu

12:35Billy's Birthday

12:40It's Billy's birthday

12:43Check the hall out

12:45Everybody brought a gift

12:49Wrapped in string and bright red ribbons

12:53His whole family's around him

12:58There's a tiny tot

13:01Struck the laser

13:03Little box marked TNT

13:07Twenty marching plastic soldiers

13:11And a German pistol from his ATG

13:15And a stick grenade set cast in plastic

13:20Four big boats with guns all around

13:24And a phantom jet from his Uncle Esther

13:29And its army gun complete with sound

13:48The years go by

13:50How swift they pass

13:52He's a man

13:55Receives a letter from the President

14:00Come on, boy, let's go to war

14:04But in the children's games

14:06What's played with plastic bullets is no more

14:12Now it's Tiger Spot

14:15Battle lasers

14:17Lots of little boxes marked TNT

14:21And the twenty marching plastic soldiers

14:25Have become reality

14:30Stick grenades

14:32And German pistols

14:34And the Tommy Gun's new models

14:38And jets in the sky

14:40Sinking ships down on the sea

14:42Nearly every country's got a howl

14:46It's Billy's funeral

14:49Check the hall out

14:51Everybody shed a tear

14:55He's wrapped in string and bright red ribbons

14:59His whole family's gathered here

15:04It's Billy's funeral

15:08It's Billy's funeral

15:13And it could have been you

15:15And it could have been you

15:17And it could have been me

15:39Penny

15:45I've drowned

15:52And many are the ones

15:56Gone to ground

16:03Down

16:10Not even bothering to die

16:15Or live

16:21Or live

16:45Ooh

17:00Sign

17:05Without colour

17:08Forever grey

17:12Afternoons

17:20Monotone

17:27Never rises or falls

17:31Never rises or falls

17:37Do you?

17:43Do you?

18:01Do you?

18:07Do you?

18:30Catatonic heart

18:37Staring numbly into space

18:39Outside the garbage hell race

18:41Outside of heaven's embrace

18:44There ain't no reward for a post hole ditch digger

18:48They try to take it here

18:50Something large they might hide in the pockets of their souls

18:53But the pockets have large holes

18:56And they come once again to St. Peter empty handed

18:59And the catatonic heart in the warm of isolation

19:02Turns around and returns to the presence desolation

19:05And moves on where there is no movement

19:08Truly septum heart we're standing still yet we run

19:11We're running, running till we drop

19:13And as we bounce once again

19:15Know the grace of morning rising from inside

19:18To break the beat of the catatonic heart

19:20Staring deeply into heaven not this hell

19:22And speaking songs without a pattern

19:24Just a vaguely unfamiliar setting

19:26Remembering our birth

19:28And then forgetting in the heat of the running

19:30So scared still we walk with a prayer to God

19:32Like honey on the lips

19:34To be returned to the one who made us all

19:36And like that prayer we go ourselves

19:38To become once again the living heart

19:40Of a world turning slowly in the sun

19:42It's more than words

19:44Take the ring

19:46Stretch in prayer and raise yourselves

19:48So that I speak more than movements in the wind

19:50The feeling high, reaching, touch, making faster

19:53Stretching over chasm sounds

19:55Being pushed to a limit

19:57Breaking rules, the rules of men

19:59Makes no sense, says Oroger on the corner of a thought

20:01Trying to balance, trying to make out what I'm saying

20:04Looking hard with his eyes and not his heart

20:06See, try, refocus the energy

20:08Question loud, watch the pen, watch the pen, watch the pen

20:12Moving quicker than silly words could ever reach

20:15Deeper, deeper, deeper, deeper, deeper, deeper

20:20High

20:23High

20:29The highway runs from here to there

20:31And if you and I start now

20:33I believe we'll win this race for the sun

20:36If you dare, I'll teach us how

20:38And should you falter in your step

20:41Or stumble in the run

20:43We'll arm and hand together go

20:45In our race to touch the sun

20:48In our race to touch the sun

20:53In our race to touch the sun

21:05There's a light in the deepest darkness

21:11Though hidden, it may be from your view

21:17It's waiting to be awakened

21:23It's waiting to be awakened in you

21:29May be here be dragons

21:35But the Lord is my shepherd

21:38The resurrection and the life

21:44The resurrection and the life

21:54Of the world

22:07I know you, you suffer oh so softly

22:14Put your head upon my shoulder now

22:19When the anger strikes, we'll be together

22:25Maybe we'll win through somehow

22:31Someone should have warned us

22:37That bad guys can wear white and smile

22:42While they're taking a sin

22:45Smile while they're leading a sin

23:15La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la

23:20La-la-la-la-la-la-la

23:24La-la-la-la-la-la-la

23:28Yeah

23:32Yeah
