It's a ceremony

Hold an eagle feather to my heart
On my heart
A time for magic drifting in
Pushing molten fire music in
Fire music
We are gathered here now in a sacred place

Flowing strong and free
A celebration that we need
To cleanse a world that is bleeding deep
Ooh, don't let her bleed, no
Oh, we are gathered here in a sacred place

2. WILD HEARTED SON

Wild hearted son
Baby, the world didn't want me to run
To try and break me down to my knees
Wild hearted

Well now
You know, I shoot from the hip now
My fist raised in the air
I'm a whirlwind dreamer, baby
With my head high in the clouds

Don't take me too lightly
I got the blues power, baby
I'm just a breed of society
I'm pushing hard and stealing free
Don't you try to lay no trip on me

I'm a wild hearted son
I'm coming down like a rolling stone
Wild hearted son
I'm a wild hearted son
Hey mama, the world didn't want me to run
Wild hearted son

I was born to the city
But I longed to roam free
Got a screaming horse in my belly
Scar on my heart
I live outside of convention
You know the people who stare
I'm just a breed of society
I'm pushing hard and I'm stealing free
Don't try to lay no trip on me

Cause I'm a wild hearted son
I'm coming down like a rolling stone
Wild hearted son
I'm a wild hearted son
Lil' honey, the world didn't want me to run
Wild hearted son

The world didn't want me to run
Try to break me down, down

I'm coming down like a rolling stone
Wild hearted son

Wild hearted son, son, baby

Wilderness, we must embrace you once more

White

Shining brightly
Snow is pure now

When the barbarians approach on the frontiers of a civilization,
it is a sign of a crisis in that civilization.
When the barbarians come, not with weapons of war, but
with songs and icons of peace.
It is a sign of the crisis in one of a spiritual nature.
That a spiritual nature.
We have forgotten our spiritual nature.
Cause we are wrapped up in too much shit all day, all night.

5. IF

If
If that's the way that it is
If
If that's the way that it is

If we put our hearts together
And overcome our hesitation
Maybe we could join our love as one
And storm the gates of heaven

If the winds of change
Would blow in the favour of man
Resolve our situation
Undo the work of idle temptation

well, the test of time, the test of time
You know, freedom will fly

If
If that's the way that it is
We gotta fight to live
If
If that's the way that it is

Could find some common ground

6. FULL TILT

Gunfire ricochet off my halo
My head is buzzing like a hive of bees
The truth is certain, I gotta start living
I've been down for all to see
All my dreams creeping up on me
The whole world is my destiny
Sweet lord, set us all free
Only one future I see

Full tilt
I'm finally hit
Full tilt
Oh I'm in love with that shit, baby

Oh, we've been down with our heads in the sand
Complaining that there's nothing to do
Now people listen, I'm sick of excuses
That dull confusion baby, finally through
All that time pushing hard on me
Freak society, my destiny
Sweet lord, set us all free
Only one future I see

Full tilt
I'm finally hit
Full tilt,
Ooh, I'm in love with that shit

Full tilt, finally hit
Baby, that's how I feel

7. HEART OF SOUL

Down and out in London
Los Angeles and Paris, too
I drank a river in my time
To get on through

Well, the night, it rise above you, rise above me
And the blues, they swirl around me

To the heart of soul
You got to bleed a little while you sing
Lest the words don't mean nothing, no
Get to the heart of soul
Gotta get to the heart of soul

Get to the hip, now baby
'Fore the hip get to you, lil' woman
Try to bend me out of shape
Can't tell me, can't tell me what to do, little honey

Well, the night, it rise above me, rise above me
And those blues, they swirl around me

To the heart of soul
You gotta bleed a little while you sing
Lest the words don't mean nothing, no
Oh, get to the heart of soul
Gotta get to the heart of soul

You gotta bleed a little while your singing
Lest the words don't mean nothing, no
Get to the heart of soul
Baby, heart of soul

From the delta
Down on the river
We need some heart of soul
In the world today now
A little bit of heart of soul now
In the world today
A little bit of soul now
A little heart of soul

You gotta bleed a little while your singing
Lest the words don't mean nothing, no they don't, no
Get to the heart of soul
Oh, baby, heart of soul

What I want
Is a heart of soul
What I want
What I need
Is a heart of soul now

8. BANGKOK RAIN

Black night baby
Past the midnight hour
All around me, all around me, all around me
Butterfly women singing

No time for trouble
A time of joy
I'm far from home
Don't care no more

Falling down
The Bangkok rain keeps falling down
Bangkok rain keeps on falling down
Bangkok rain keeps on falling down
I love that sound

Sitting in a bar in Bangkok
Waiting for the rain to stop
All around me, the butterfly women talking
Just talking and singing

No time for trouble
A time for joy now
I don't care no more
I don't care no more

Falling down
The Bangkok rain keeps falling down
Bangkok rain keeps on falling down
Bangkok rain keeps on falling down
Down on the ground

No time for trouble
It's a time for joy
I don't care no more
I'm too far from home

Falling down
Bangkok rain keeps on falling down
Bangkok rain keeps on falling down
Bangkok rain keeps on falling down
Down on the ground

I'm a free spirit
A travelling man
Round the world I like to lurk
The rain comes down
In a Bangkok town
My heart is in my mouth
Baby, won't you please take me home
I ain't got nowhere to go
No trouble
Freaky city

Freaky city
Freak city
Freak city

Freak city
Freak city
Freaky city

10. SWEET SALVATION

Ask the dust
No harm will come between us
Oh beautiful, radiant child
Eyes azure, vow to me
Your golden heart
Ooh, she moves in silence
Then whispers to me
Sets my soul harp on fire

Sweet salvation, baby
Melts my heart made of stone
Please guide me and carry me on
Sweet salvation is
For this man made of stone
Please hold me and embrace my soul

Seduced by your glance
Overwhelmed and enchanted by you, baby

11. WONDERLAND

Divine intervention in this decaying world
While a hip young dude stood passionately
Succumbing to the he-dog sound
Of the mystifying beat combo that
Breaks down your door
Gonna take you high now, take you real high

Kicking down the devil's door
Cheap thrills baby, I need some more
City on fire becoming me
Let's hurry lover and fly together
Majestic high and soaring now
Babylon bares her breast again
Time's like quicksand
Soon again, I'm standing naked in

Wonderland
I feel mistreated
Wonderland
I feel defeated but not for long

Oh, tear the petals from this sweet narcissus
Crumbles gently in the palm of my hand
What once was inviting is dull and blinding
Once magnificent has slipped away
Serpent in my belly stomach crawling now
Wipe the sweat from my furrowed brow
Time's like quicksand
Soon again, I'm standing naked in

Wonderland
I feel mistreated
Wonderland
I feel defeated, yeah, but not for long
Wonderland
Bound and branded, yeah, on my back
Wonderland
Tired and cheated

Divine intervention in this decaying world
While the hip young dude stood passionately
Succumbing to the he-dog sound
You know the sound that breaks down your doors
Are listening to me, now?
The sound of a mystifying beat combo
That's gonna take you higher, baby

Wonderland
Bound and branded, look out
Wonderland
Tired, tired and cheated

Earth's your mother
Heed your brother
