I want to ride the range
Across those skies of black
I want to see for myself
And see me coming back
And when I've gone the distance
I'll be making tracks
For an English sunset.
We're on a runaway train
Rolling down the track
And where it's taking us to
Who knows where it's at
But if we hold together
We can make it back
For an English sunset
We want an English sunset.
I feel the rhythm of the earth
In my soul tonight
May it never fade away
And I've decided I can live
With humility
And the sad decay
'Cos that's the English way.
(England!)
We keep the faith alive
In everything we do
And at the end of the road
We still keep coming through
And though it's sad and sorry
What else can we do
It's an English sunset
An English sunset.
(More tea, Vicar?)
I feel the rhythm of the earth
In my soul tonight
May it never fade away
And I've decided they can wait
For the requiem
We take it day by day
'Cos that's the English way
I saw the English sunset.
(England!)

I really miss you when the nights are long
And only silence is heard in this world of song
But life goes on
And forever more
I'll be haunted by your love
I see you walking through the gates of home
And then I wake up to find I'm still all alone
I should have known
But forever more
I'll be haunted by your love
Lonely is the river as it tumbles to the ocean
Searching for our future
We can't find our way back home
My only comfort is the love we shared
And as I walk through this world
With sadness everywhere
I've had my share
And forever more
I'll be haunted by your love
And forever more
I'll be haunted by your love
Standing in the doorway
As the sunrise greets the morning
Searching for our future
We can't find our way back home
I really miss you when the nights are long
And only silence is heard in this world of song
But life goes on
And forever more
I'll be haunted by your love
Haunted by your love
(repeat)

Walk on the water
Swim with the life tide
Clear away the storm clouds
Oohh ...
You got to
Roll with the punches
Shelter from the weather
Have no fear of the darkness
Sooner or later oohh ...
Sooner or later oohh ...
We'll be walkin' on air
Live for the moment
'cos life is worth living
Love will surround you
Sooner or later oohh ...
Sooner or later oohh ...
We'll be walkin' on air
We'll be walkin' on air
Love is out there waiting for you
Wearing no disguise
Nothing left behind closed doors
It's right before your eyes
So take a walk in the sunshine
Send a message on your online
Then you can do it in your own time
Sooner or later oohh ...
Sooner or later oohh ...
We'll be walkin' on air
Walkin' on air
We'll be walkin' on air
Walk on the water
Shelter from the weather
Clear away the storm clouds
Sooner or later oohh ...
Sooner or later oohh ...
Sooner or later oohh ...
Sooner or later oohh ...
We'll be walkin' on air
Walkin' on air
We'll be walkin' on air

These times have passed and gone
It's time that we moved on
Into a new tomorrow
And leave behind the hurt
The sorrow and the pain
'cos tonight will never
Pass this way again
Wherever you are
Wherever you go
Wherever you stand
Let your shadow show
Whatever you think
Whatever you do
Whatever you want
Let your feelings show
These times have passed and gone
It's time that we moved on
Into a new tomorrow
And leave behind the hurt
The sorrow and the pain
'cos tonight will never
Pass this way again
'cos tonight will never
Pass this way again
Just like the winter sun
That hides behind the dawn
Just like the shifting sands
That ride upon the storm
Tonight will never
Pass this way again
'cos tonight will never
Pass this way again
'cos tonight will never
Pass this way again
'cos tonight will never
Pass this way again

We ran through the summer fields
Between the earth and sky
Little did we realise
We were flying you and I.
We sang to the stars above
We praised the earth below
You fell into my arms that night
And I've never let you go.
It was beautiful, glorious
We were riding on a wave
With foolish hearts, and foolish love
We would give ourselves away.
Remember how we cried out loud
Heard angry voices shout
I love you as I loved you then
No danger and no doubt.
It was beautiful, glorious
We were riding on a wave
With foolish hearts, and foolish love
We would give ourselves away.
And now as we look behind
To see the road of life
Turning to the ones we love
Salvation is in sight.
'Cos it was beautiful, glorious
We were riding on a wave
With foolish hearts, and foolish love
We would give ourselves away.
Remember how we cried out loud
Heard angry voices shout
I love you as I loved you then
No danger and no doubt.

The way you looked at me tonight
I've never seen that look
In your eyes before
But then again
I don't think I've ever looked
Had the time to spare
The will to share with you
What have I missed
What have I done
I'm gonna turn back the tide
Like it's just begun
Time changes
Time changes
Time changes for the better
After all we've been thro'
Love don't come easy for me
The way you looked into my eyes
I could see the hurt
I saw thro' your disguise
Just give me time
I can make it up to you
Let me heal the pain
I'm scared of losing you
What have I missed
Where have I gone wrong
If I could turn back the time
So we've just begun
Time changes
Time changes
Time changes for the better
After all we've been thro'
Love don't come easy for me
For me
What have I missed
What have I done
I'm gonna turn back the tide
So we've just begun
Time changes
Time changes
Time changes for the better
After all we've been thro'
Love don't come easy for me
Love don't come easy
After all we've been thro'
Love don't come easy for me
Love don't come easy

All the world over I've searched for a dream
I've found out that life is not what it seems
I've seen all the wonders the world has to give
But all that is real is you.
All of the silver and all of the gold
Seems worthless to me
Lifeless and cold
I've known all the treasure
A man can possess
But all that is real is you.
So bring me back home
My love - my love
Oh how I need you
Take me back home
My love - my love
Oh how I love you.
Even the place where my heart used to fly
The warm summer breeze
The wild seabirds cry
All are illusions and all just a dream
'Cos all that is real is you.
So bring me back home
My love - my love
Oh how I need you
Take me back home
My love - my love
Oh how I love you.
All the world over I've searched for a dream
I've found out that life is not what it seems
I've seen all the wonders the world has to give
But all that is real is you
'Cos all that is real is you.

Long time ago, back in the mist of time
Back when the crystal waters flowed
There was a world
So strange and so beautiful
All life would flourish and would grow
Years went by, time just fell away
Love was worshiped like the sun
But as we arrive at the house of the water sign
We're living in strange times
Strange times
Strange times
What do we need
What do we hunger for
Who holds the secrets, who will know
Temples of greed
In ruins on the river bed
Wastelands that lived before the snow
Time stands still
As we race through the universe
On our way to the sun
And as we arrive at the house of the water sign
We're living in strange times
Strange times,
Strange times
It's you and I forever
We won't be afraid
Even if the stars are falling down, down, down, down, down
Falling down
Time stands still as we race through the universe
On our way to the sun
And as we arrive at the house of the water sign
We're living in strange times
Strange times,
Strange times
(repeat)

Words you say to me
I listen in sympathy
But I don't know what it is
That makes me ignore you.
I hear you every night
I listen but the words
Don't seem right
My mind seems somewhere else
What else can I tell you?
I don't know what to do
I'm losing you
Something I can't control
You are in my heart and soul.
I don't want to wake up now
I don't want to wake up now
I don't want to wake up now
I don't want to wake up now.
Words you say to me
I'm living in fantasy
If I don't know what it is
I simply ignore you.
I hear you every night
I listen but the time is never right
My life is so confused
What more can I tell you?
Don't turn and walk away
Don't leave this way
Something I can't control
You are in my heart and soul.
I don't want to wake up now
I don't want to wake up now
I don't want to wake up now
I don't want to wake up now.

Fairy tales sometimes come true
Use fairy dust and pixie glue
Then all the love will stick to you
My little lovely.
Always believe and never doubt
That wizards cast their spells about
There's such a lot you won't lose count
If you look closely.
Ripples are like dreams
Searching for the shore
Poured together make oceans roar
Night visions make spirits soar
So choose one wisely.
Not all angels can grow wings
They seem to soar by other means
You can fly although it seems
A little slowly.
Fairy tales sometimes come true
Use fairy dust and pixie glue
Then all the love will stick to you
My little lovely.
Ripples are like dreams
Searching for the shore
Poured together make oceans roar
Night visions make spirits soar
My little lovely.

If we could live forever
Where would our dreams lead us to
Living in a world of ever
Changing expectation
If it could be
If it could be
It would be forever now
If we could be here forever
Where in this world would heaven be
As we race across the universe
In search of confirmation
Why can't it be
Why can't it be
Why can't it be forever now
There's no way out
There is no return
There's no way back
There's no way to learn
The final act
The curtain falls
On the stage
On the stage
Standing at the crossroads
Waiting for the new millennium
For if it could be
If it could be
It would be forever now
If we could live forever
Where would our dreams lead us to
Living in a children's world
Of simple fascination
If it could be, If it could be
It would be forever now
If it could be, If it could be
It would be forever now
For if it could be
If it could be
It would be forever now
If it could be, If it could be
It would be forever now

No surprise
Hey that you wanna be the one again
No surprise
You wanna be the one
Heard you had a story to tell
Sold your soul in a kiss and tell
Sliding down on a helter skelter ride
Into yesterday
No way out, the price of fame
Once it's told will you be the same
Rolling down on a roller coaster ride
We'll be waiting for you
No surprise
Hey that you wanna be the one again
No surprise
No surprise
Hey that you wanna be the one
No surprise
You wanna be the one
Shock the world with your fall from grace
Glory days gone without a trace
No surprise you're a face without a name
But we all still love you
No surprise
Hey that you wanna be the one again
No surprise
No surprise
Hey that you wanna be the one
No surprise
You wanna be the one
It's time to tell you
We're faithful and true
Take us back to the days
When we could dream
'cos it makes us happy
No surprise
Hey that you wanna be the one again
No surprise
No surprise
Hey that you wanna be the one
No surprise
No surprise
Hey that you wanna be the one again
No surprise
No surprise
Hey that you wanna be the one
No surprise
No surprise
Hey that you wanna be the one

Time goes by
Seems like the blink of an eye
It's so crazy
What can we do
It's so strange
Life in the really slow lane
Take it easy
That's what we'll do
Just me and you
In the wide outside
See the swallow as he glides
Like a spiral up to freedom
We're all right
Maybe get lucky tonight
Only lovers feel like we do
We take our time
Leave all our worries behind
No more mind games
Simple and true
That's what we'll do
In the wide outside
See the swallow as he glides
Like a spiral up to freedom
Time goes by
Seems like the blink of an eye
It's so crazy
What can we do
It's so strange
Life in the really slow lane
Take it easy
That's what we'll do
Just me and you
That's what we'll do
Just me and you
That's what we'll do

The dark cloak of winter's war
Left a future still unsure
Sitting in a class
Of the future's past
We saw a list of dates
And we knew we would last
To see them all.
1984 was a year to fear
Hope was dead, a police state here
Halley's comet was to fly by
And we would see a shining in the nighht sky
Now 2001 is soon to come
And just as soon will have come and gone
Nothing changes.
Standing at the crossroads
Of what is, will be, and was
The obvious eludes us
Not because the zeroes line up
We should change our way of thought
More if we do not, the way ahead
Is dangerously fraught
And if we did the things we all know to be right
Left would be the childish fears
Of danger in the night.
We, each of us are fine
For we have all heard the word
But grouped together
Babel's triumph stampedes
The thoughtless herd
Nothing changes.
Nothing changes
And nothing stays the same
And life is still
A simple game.

It's a long, long highway
Will this road of life lead me to someone?
Who sees the world in a grain of sand?
Who holds the future in the palm of their hand?
No one else can see things like I do
It's a long, long highway
Looking for a home where the seed was sown
And the harvest was young
Will this road of life lead me to someone, someone?
The rays of sun and the light of dawn
My inspiration since the day I was born
No one else can see things like I do
It's a long, long highway
But don't make the start on an empty heart
When you think you've begun
Let the road of life lead you to someone, someone
Nothing is serious to me
I live for what will be
I can always be a dreamer
So trust your heart
Don't fall apart, you'll see
At your journey's end
You will find a friend in me
It's a long, long highway
Will this road of life lead me to someone?
You touched the dream that was in your eyes
You took so long only to realise
No one else can love you like I do
It's a long, long highway
Looking for a home where the seed was sown
And my harvest was young
Will this road of life lead me to someone?
It's a long, long highway
But don't make a start
On an empty heart
It's a long, long highway
Let this road of life lead you to someone, someone

This is the moment
This is the day
This is the moment
When I know
I am on my way
Every endeavor
I have made ever
Is coming into play
Is here and now today
This is the moment
This the time
When the momentum
And the moment
are in rhyme
Give me this moment
My precious chance
I'll gather up my best
And make some sense atlast
This is the moment
When all I've done
All of the dreaming,
scheming
And screaming
becomes one
This is the day,
Just see it shine
When all that I have lived for
Becomes mine
This is the moment
This is the hour
When I can open up,
Tomorrow
like a flower
And put my hand to
Everything I plan to
Fulfill my grand desire
See all my stars align
This is the moment
My final test
Destiny beckoned
I never reckoned second best
I won't look back
I must not fall
This is the moment
The sweetest moment
Of them all
This is the moment
So double the odds
This day or never
I'll sit forever
with the gods
When I look back
I will recall
Moment for moment
This was the moment
The greatest moment of them all.
