She came to me one morning
one lonely Sunday morning her long hair flowing in the mid winter wind I know not how she found me for in darkness I was walking and destruction lay around me from a fight I could not win She asked me name my foe then I said the need within some men to fight and kill their brothers without thought of men or god And I begged her give me horses to trample down my enemies so eager was my passion to devour this waste of life But she would not think of battle that reduces men to animals so easy to begin and yet impossible to end For she the mother of all men had counciled me so wisely that I feared to walk alone again and asked if she would stay Oh lady lend your hand I cried Oh let me rest here at your side Have faith and trust in me she said and filled my heart with life There is no strength in numbers I've no such misconceptions But when you need me be assured I won't be far away Thus having spoke she turned away and though I found no words to say I stood and watched until I saw her black cloak disappear My labor is no easier but now I know I'm not alone I find new heart each time I think upon that windy day And if one day she comes to you drink deeply from her words so wise Take courage from her as your prize and say hello for me |

There I was on a July morning
Looking for love With the strength Of a new day dawning And the beautiful sun At the sound Of the first bird singing I was leaving for home With the storm And the night behind me And a road of my own With the day came the resolution I'll be looking for you La la la la … I was looking for love In the strangest places Wasn't a stone That I left unturned Must have tried more Than a thousand faces But not one was aware Of the fire that burned In my heart, in my mind, in my soul La la la la … There I was on a July morning I was looking for love With the strength Of a new day dawning And the beautiful sun And at the sound Of the first bird singing I was leaving for home With the storm And the night behind me Yeah, and a road of my own |

He was the wizard of a thousand kings
and a chance to meet him one night wondering. He told me tales and he drank my wine. Me and my magic man kinda feeling fine. He had a cloak of gold and eyes of fire. And as he spoke I felt a deep desire to free the world of its fear and pain and help the people to feel free again. Why don't we listen to the voices in our hearts? Cause then I know we'll find we're not so far apart. Everybody's got to be happy, everyone should see. For we know the joy of life and peace that love can bring. So spoke the wizard in his mountain home. The vision of his wisdom means we'll never be alone. And I will dream of my magic night and the million silver stars that guide me with their light |

Circle of hands
Cold spirits plan Searching my land For an enemy Came across Love's sweet cost And in the face of beauty Evil was lost Sky full of eyes Minds full of lies Black from their cold hearts Down to their graves Murdered the dawn Spreading their scorn Cursing the sun Of which love was born We must keep them away Or pretty soon we'll pay And count the cost in sorrow Sacrifice - the future has it's price And today is only Yesterday's tomorrow Tomorrow ... |

Sunrise
And the new day's breakin' through The morning Of another day without you And as the hours roll by No-one's there to see me cry Except the sunrise The sunrise and you Tired eyes drift across the shore Looking for love and nothing more But as the sea rolls by No-one's there to see me cry Excep the sunrise The sunrise and you Sunrise Bless my eyes Catch my soul Make me whole again Sunrise, new day Hear my song I'm tired of fightin' And foolin' around But from now on Till who knows when My sword will be my pen And I'll love you, love you For all of my time |

Take me across the water 'cause I need some place to hide. I done the rancher's daughter and I sure did hurt his pride. Oo-oo oo-oo ah ah ah oo-oo oo-oo ah ah ah. Well, there's a hundred miles of desert lies between his hide and mine. I don't need no food, no water, Lord, 'cause I'm running out of time. Fightin', killin', wine and women gonna put me to my grave. Runnin', hidin', losin', cryin'. nothing left to save but my life. Oo-oo oo-oo ah ah ah oo-oo oo-oo ah ah ah. Stood on a ridge and stunned religion thinking the world was mine. I made my break and a big mistake, stealing when I should have been buying. All that fightin', killin', wine and women gonna put me to an early grave. Runnin', hidin', losin', cryin', nothing left to save but my life, life, life, life, life, life, life, life, life. So I stood on a ridge and stunned religion thinking the world was mine. I made my break and a big mistake, stealing when I should have been buying.
