1. OPENING OUT

Fading mist you swirl and dance before my eyes
To realise
The feelings that have lay within my heart
Life in dreams is so much kinder
Just a moment's memory
To fade away, in distance lies your home

Broken city, take you with me
Soon to be harmonised
There before your eyes
Only to exist
Time has held tomorrow yearning while apart
Now the longing has begun for you

Suns will never set
And shall not forget
Promises we made
Somewhere there's a harbour
Though we pass her by
Where our ship can be and safely lie
In the warmth of her arms
Inside a perfect day

And with each passing moment
We wait to sail away


2. DAY OF THE DREAMER

Falling around me lay, parts of my life
I'm leaving them all behind
We leave with the night
Living in strange ways
Has cast me aside
I cry in another world now
I must search for all my days gone by

Chorus:

Dreamer lead me ever closer
Here is where I belong
Inside my own existance
I have been for so long

Voices that call to me, lay silent to hide
Soon I will hold them close
With words from my eyes
Living in hope of you
Loving you now
You are my waking thoughts
I lay with you in my sleeping hours

Chorus

I stand and gaze upon your smile
A deep reflection
Held in my soul as a child
To grow within the warmth of love
Long forgotten
Tears flood your eyes in a moment
Dreamer, I become as one within you
To lose you far away

I stay inside your heaven now
No longer lonely
Once more I'm safe in your arms
To feel your touch
Across my mind
Fills me only full of desire for my being
Dreamer, really all that needs a meaning
To feel us sail away

Chorus


3. CLOSER THAN YESTERDAY

As morning leaves the night
Opening my eyes
I feel that you are close to me
And yet your heart is time away
But I can't hold a dream
That sleeps within my yesterdays
And so coming very close now
I see my destiny
Is to make you part of me
And to hope that you might be
Pure and free

Chorus:

Leave memories on the wind
To spend moments in endless flight
Held over by all you mean
I feel you nearer the darkest night
Closer now, than yesterday

Hoping for a chance
To find you loving me
In the distance searching there I'll be
In time you may come to me
To fall into the world
That once we left so far behind
To learn with each passing moment
As tomorrow comes for me
In the shadow of my life
For eternity to find
The light I see

Chorus


4. KINDNESS (AT THE END)

Watching the mist rolling over the sea
Watching the tide as it rolls into me
The ebb and flow just like my life
Contiual ups and downs
It's all part of the cycle
And the cycle must be round

Where's the affection in words when we say
I'm leaving tomorrow, I'm going away
Do the tears in your eyes
Make the future look blind
As you wait in your room
Spinning thoughts you may lose

When I think of all the times we've had
The times we've sat and thought
They were moments deep inside me
For all of my days - every way - every way

Leaving your heart is the hard thing to do
Being so close has clouded my view
Holding you near is a thing of the past
But my memories exist and I hope they will last

When I think of all times I'm sad
The feel of all we've lost
They were moments I remember
For all of my days - every way
For all of my days - every way


5. BACK HOME ONCE AGAIN

Come along with me
The day can breathe once more
To hear the sound of closing doors
The night has opened up its eyes to see day
A thousand moving just as one
A feeling that's so certain
That when this day is done
The paper lads will -

Come with the dawn, casting light on the play
Acting it out in our own special way
Making our entrance and reading the lines
The story of people who live by the Tyne

Back home once again
The streets that seemed so long
They're waking now
The job is done
See people run to catch the wheels of their lives
The cities reading every line
But while it sleeps you're working
In a world that's just your own
For paper lads alone -

In the dawn going round every day
Seeing your home town in different ways
Carry the news, solving problems you find
Though young who knows what goes on in your mind


6. SHE IS LOVE

There bound to lazy days
Here they would dream
Cast all their doubts away
Leaves upon a stream

So they would make a place
Love flowing free
Held in a summer smile
Strangers wild and sweet

Chorus:

Though she's flown, wild and free
Still behind his eyes she stays
There beneath his mind she lays
She is love

Smiles just a winter smile
Tries to hang on
Why even she can't say
What it is that's gone

Chorus

Still behind his eyes she stays
There beneath his mind she lays
She is love


7. NORTHERN LIGHTS

Destination outward bound
I turn to see the northern lights behind the wing
Horizons seem to beckon me
Learned how to cry too young, so now I live to sing

The northern lights are in my mind
They guide me back to you
Horizons seem to beckon me
Learned how to cry too young, so now I live to sing

You know it's hard away from you
Travelling roads and passing through
It's not for money and it's not for fame
I just can't explain, sometimes it's lonely

Marking the space between the days
Early hours pass away
I sing to you of northern lights
I sing for you of northern nights

Past or future, here or there
Shelter comes in words from you, so talk to me
I hear your voice, it comforts me
In morning dreams I take your hand, you walk with me

The northern lights are in my mind
They guide me back to you
Peace enfolds the still night air
Home again I look for you and find you there

Desintation homeward now
Take the easy way, bring me down
Making the hard way now I see
Hard to be really free, I'm missing you near me

Marking the space between the days
Early hours pass away
I sing to you of northern lights
I sing for you of northern nights

Chorus:

The northern lights are in my mind
They guide me back to you
The northern nights are in my eyes
They guide me back to you

Repeat chorus twice

The northern lights are in my mind
They guide me back to you


8. A SONG FOR ALL SEASONS

From the start through all time
Here upon the wind
Disorder reigned hand in hand with Spring
Earth and the fire
Air and the water
Moulded the sea and landscape
Moving, flowing with no seeming purpose
Endlessly changing
Survival
Spring into Summer
Time for reflection
Time to grow
World full of meaing
Place rearranging
Face ever changing
For all our lives
These are our roots and it's our way
We grow, we reap and sow
We reap and sow the seasons of our day

Within the heart of all things born that day
The Autumn scene brings the Winters way
Colours are shading
Misting and fading
Turning toward
Changes, living
Each time the past and the future
Holding together
Tomorrow
Winter to Springtime, a season for planning
Time to learn
World full of stillness
World ever waiting
Anticipating
For all of our lives
These are our roots, and it's our way
We grow, we reap, and sow
We reap and sow the seasons of our day

We fall, while aiming so high
We crawl, flying
Man has North, South, East and West
Man has, trying
A song for all seasons through

Man has North, South, East and West
Man has music
Man has North, South, East and West
Man makes music
A song for all seasons through

Song for all seasons
A song for all our time
We'll have a song for all the seasons through
