Annie Haslam Album

Forever earthbound - found in illusion
Spinning in circles deep, in my confusion
Memories fading - slip into fantasy
I may be leaving - then stay
Following endlessly

Tangled in silence (Tangled in silence)
Echoes I'm chasing (Echoes I'm chasing)
Falling in out of time, I see I'm wasting
Drifting and helpless, hold on to emptiness
We may be losing and lost
And see nothing more

Tangled in fragments - holding together
Taking my place with you, finding forever
Tomorrow's calling - bringing eternity
Now I can see we are bound
Into infinity

Closer I hear you, (tomorrow's calling), feel I am near you
It's been a lonely road, treading the same ground
So tired of waiting
(And you know it doesn't always have to be that way)
Forever earthbound
(And you know it sometimes only seems to be that way)
We walk a lonely road
(Reach out and - we'll be there)
Treading the same ground
(Reach out and - we're with you)
(We're with you)
(We're with you)

(Accept and believe, you have no cause to grieve)
(And however small, you're a part of it all)
(And all you conceal, you may reveal)
(Forever found, you'll be ever earthbound)

Forever earthbound, forever earthbound
Forever earthbound, forever bound

One day we took a walk beside the river
You, you threw a stone into the water
That day, we saw the sunrise in the dawn sky
You, you smiled and there was warmth around us
We moved slowly as the wind blew softly there
One day

We walked along a lonely seascape
There, we left our footprints far behind us
Sea-birds, they circled - weaving, above us
They, they watched us dreaming there

One day, moved grey to blue
Then back from blue to grey
One day - when I am missing you
Then I'll walk along the beach there
And watch the sea-birds fly - so high
And change the day from grey to blue

Reached out, and touched the cool night air, we felt
The warmth of love around us
One day, we saw the sunrise in the dawn sky
One day, we took a walk beside the river
One day ....

Ave, ave verum Corpus De Maria Virgine
Vere passum, immolatum in cruce pro homine
Cuius latus perforatum
Fluxit aqua et sanguine
Esto nobis praegustatum
Mortis in examine

Why do we love so carelessly
A broken heart can never feel the same
Why do we make everything so hollow, and then borrow
Someone's love, selfishly

Why do we take the easy way
No looking back, you never see the pain
Why do we hurt, people who we care for, and would bear for
If we thought, with understanding and with caring in our hearts
If we could see, if only we could see
All the love we lost - carelessly

Why do we take and not return
No going back, you never meet again
Why do we think, always of our selfish need and go with greed
When if we knew with certainty and caring in our hearts
If we could see, if only we could see, all the love we lost
All the love we lost - carelessly

Once she would dance on centre stage
While he was blinded by the light
She sang and danced, danced her glitter dreams for them
While he, he waited out of sight

But he won't wait there forever more
He told her so, she did not believe his words
So she would dance in those glitter dreams
She did not know he would leave

So she would dance his life away
'Cause she was blinded by the lights
And when he left, left her glitter dreams behind
She danced, she danced into the night

But without love waiting in the wings
She would dance for him, she could not believe he'd gone
So now she dances her dusty dreams
The glitter's gone
Now the glitter's turned into dust, she dances on ...

Now without love waiting in the wings
She will dance for him, she does not believe he's gone
And now she dances her dusty dream
The glitter's gone
Now the glitter's turned into dust

On, on and on she dances all alone
She dances just for him
She sings come back, sings to him from centre stage
But now the light is growing dim

Turned to dust .....
Dust .....

[No lyrics]

Sometimes with you there's no need to speak
Old friends whose paths will more than often meet
Sometimes I smile and you ask me why
Memories of ours are always bitter sweet

Sometimes in dreams you are near to me
Closer than you and I could ever be
Sometimes you smile and I wonder why
Memories of you are always bitter sweet

A lonely cello fades with the sun
And then I wake and my dreams are done
And bitter sweet glimpses haunt me
Dreaming of love that may never ...

... Be sure that you're never lonely
Know that I'm here, should your heart be free
Then we may smile at our memories, together now
Our dreams are more, than bitter sweet

In troubled times
I am surrounded by conflict
The world I see
Bound with the chains of limitation
And in this I'm confined
Filled with all that I am
I find all of my frailties
I can see no end

In troubled thoughts
I am aware of hesitation
My mind I see
Bound with the chains of reservation
And in this I'm restrained
Filled with less than I am
I find all of my frailties
I can see no end

(As you are, what you know
As you live, you will grow
Now that you have the key
You will come to be free
All the questions you ask
And the keys from the past
Say the answer is you
And you hold all the answers)

I'd grow if I knew
(All this you will find)
The way

(With peace in time
You will find harmony weaving
A tapestry woven with threads of expectation
So grow with your love
Fill with all you can be
Your heart will encompass
All you may need to be free)
