In a Lifetime (Clannad)

Hard to tell

Or recognize a sign

To see me through

A warning sign

First the thunder - Satisfied

Then the storm - If the past, it will not lie

Torn asunder - The future, you and I

In the storm - Get blown away

In a lifetime

And as the rain, it falls / Begin again

Heavy in my heart / As the storms breaks through

Believe the light / So the light shines

In you / In you

Without color, faded and worn

Torn asunder in the storm / Torn asunder

Unless the sound

Save your body’s soul

Unless it disappears

First the thunder / Selfish Storm Cold on the inside

Then the storm / One life

Torn asunder / In the storm

In the storm

Bird on a Wire Leonard Cohen/ zanger Johnny Cash

Like a bird on a wire,

like a drunk in a midnight choir
I have tried in my way to be free.
Like a worm on a hook,
like a knight in some old fashioned book
I have saved all my ribbons for thee.
And if I, if I have been unkind,
I just hope you will let it go by.
And if I, if I have been untrue
I just hope you know it was never to you.
Like a baby, stillborn,
like a beast with his horn
I have torn everyone who reached out to me.
But I swear by this song
and by all that I have done wrong
I'll make it all up to thee.
I saw a young man leaning on his wooden crutch,
and he told to me, "You must not ask for so much."
And a young woman leaning in her darkened door,
she called out to me, "Hey, why not ask for more?"
Like a bird on the wire,
like a drunk in a midnight choir
I have tried in my way to be free.

Jonathan Livingston Seagull

Lost
On a painted sky
Where the clouds are hung
For the poet's eye
You may find him
If you may find him

There
On a distant shore
By the wings of dreams
Through an open door
You may know him
If you may

Be
As a page that aches for a word
Which speaks on a theme that is timeless
And the one God will make for your day

Sing
As a song in search of a voice that is silent
And the sun
God will make for your way

And we dance
To a whispered voice
Overheard by the soul,
Undertook by the heart
And you may know it
If you may know it

While the sand would become the stone
Which begat the spark
Turned to living bone
Holy, holy
Sanctus, sanctus

Be
As a page that aches for a word
Which speaks on a theme that is timeless
And the one God will make for your day

Sing
As a song in search of a voice that is silent
And the one God will make for your way

Somewhere over the rainbow/Wonderful World - Kamakawiwo'ole

Ok this is from Iwan

Ooooo oooooo ohoohohoo etc.

Somewhere over the rainbow
Way up high
And the dreams that you dreamed of
Once in a lullaby ii ii iii
Somewhere over the rainbow
Blue birds fly
And the dreams that you dreamed of
Dreams really do come true ooh ooooh
Someday I'll wish upon a star
Wake up where the clouds are far behind me ee ee eeh
Where trouble melts like lemon drops
High above the chimney tops thats where you'll find me oh
Somewhere over the rainbow bluebirds fly
And the dream that you dare to,why, oh why can't I? i iiii
Well I see trees of green and
Red roses too,
I'll watch them bloom for me and you
And I think to myself
What a wonderful world

Well I see skies of blue and I see clouds of white
And the brightness of day
I like the dark and I think to myself
What a wonderful world

The colors of the rainbow so pretty in the sky
Are also on the faces of people passing by
I see friends shaking hands
Saying, "How do you do?"
They're really saying, I...I love you
I hear babies cry and I watch them grow,
They'll learn much more
Than we'll know
And I think to myself
What a wonderful world (w)oohoorld

Someday I'll wish upon a star,
Wake up where the clouds are far behind me
Where trouble melts like lemon drops
High above the chimney top that's where you'll find me
Oh, Somewhere over the rainbow way up high
And the dream that you dare to, why, oh why can't I? I hiii ?
