song list next song Jon Anderson: Letter E Jon Anderson: The More You Know Faithfully
(Anderson/Jocky)
Faithfully, faithfully
Faithfully, faithfully
Where do we hide it, where do we speak from
There comes a time and a place that we believe from
Fortunes together as each has a place
To regain all the pleasure that enters your heart

Faithfully, faithfully - believe me now
Faithfully, faithfully - believe be faithful
Faithfully, faithfully

When you have found Faith, speaks to you in volumes
There comes a time and a place that you believe from
Fountains of wisdom will shine in your eyes
Don't be too, too surprised that each day is a test
So perplexed as to reason no sense in trying to hard

Faithfully, faithfully - believe me now
Faithfully, faithfully - believe be faithful
Faithfully, faithfully

Only when you start to realise
Can you understand the strength in your heart
Only when you start to believe
Then you will feel it from the start

Faithfully, faithfully
Faithfully, faithfully

Freely and finally complete to your design
To love and forever believe that you will be
Forever be free from the discourse that rattles your soul
But if you're looking for a reason
And if you're seeking complication
Now it's time to start the question
Within the source there is no answer
No answer that can be termed human
Human is the blessing we are living through

For if there is no complication
There would be no aspiration
To learn the meaning of existence would only stop you living quick
Then there would be no more reason for this design, we call love

Faithfully, faithfully, faithfully, faithfully
Faithfully, faithfully, faithfully, faithfully

We call love

Faithfully, faithfully, faithfully, faithfully
Faithfully, faithfully, faithfully, faithfully

Faithfully
song list next song previous song Jon Anderson: Olias Of Sunhillow Flight Of The Moorglade
(Jon Anderson)
And the slightest confrontation
way dissolved before the start
                             each man
                             belonged
                                       to each as one clear hand.
Asking only comfort creation
he divided to the heart
                             each man
                              open
                                         set sights to new lands.

                       and do remember you

The first to venture
first to gain
exploring daylight
clearer than the Talloplanic view

                    and there they were inside
                the Moorglade to move and to chant
                  all through force to position

            as rhythm raced inside the ship came alive
             and was struck to the soul of perception

                   and raised our head to space
                  beyond all the mass mountains
                     the sun they were headed
                           h e a d e d

Word of life rejoice the sunlight
course the flower to open wide
                               open
                            they ride
                                          climb into the dark sky

                  such a moment kindly lingered
                  they set sail from Tallowcross

(A light to lead you
is taken from the massland to the East.
As words are spoken
all courage be the token
as the feast.)

                        Wide Eyed Removing
               the precious moment we have seen...
song list next song previous song Jon Anderson: Deseo Floresta
(Jon Anderson)
(translated and transcribed by Ana Maria)

(Spanish)
La noche espera , y yo aqui sentado en un cafe, ole ola ola ole
Dejando mi vida atras,
solo queria bailar, ola ole ole ola.
Despues de tantos anos juntos en la piel,
la noche me sorprende por primera vez sin el aroma de la infidelidad de esta
oportunidad.
Nadie quiere bailar!
(English)

After all those years together on the skin (?)
the night surprise me for first time without the fragance of the infidelity
of this opportunity.
Nobody wants to dance...
song list next song previous song Jon Anderson: The Promise Ring Flowers Of The Morning
(Jon Anderson)
All this time we've walked together
Watching for the flowers to grow
Knowing that our needs are simple
Knowing that our time has come
Now the world is ours
Now the smile is yours
Hold me like the moon 'n stars
Hold me like the river

All this time we've known this reason
Changes come and clear the air
Listening with the singing birds
Our peace of mind is waiting here
It's the course of Love
In the chord of life
I'll hold you like the summer breeze
'n kiss you every morning

We want for nothing

Look out yonder to the sunset
God is glorious every day
Stars do shine and we have heaven
Now our peace of mind is clear
It's the course of Love
In the chord of life
I'll bring you flowers of my love
'n Love the flower of the morning...
song list next song previous song Jon Anderson: In The City Of Angels For You
(Anderson/Paich)
Tell me that I would sing
Soft as a song would bring
All of a union together in my life
Tell me I'm everyone
As where my heart is searching
Now is finally resting again

Oh, for the perfect sound
Jon, Jon, for my life
As it's something that I must
Explain this and all to you
Haven't you guessed it
Haven't you guessed it at all
This song is for you
This song is for you

Oh, for the perfect sound
Jah, Jah, for my life
As it's something that I must
Explain this and all to you
Haven't you guessed it
Haven't you guessed it at all
This song is for you
This song is for you
song list next song previous song Jon Anderson: Song Of Seven For You For Me
(Anderson)
First the planet, a star
Suspended in the realm of infinity
Soul and light charged together
In form called life adorned
To which the world offered a home
Once made for love
And love alone
For you, for me
For you, for me

It did not stop there, we are form
The magic body, that soft machine
Acclimatised with vision
And just enough thought to begin the test
To learn and just in front
The source of indifference
To the song of knowledge ever sung
For you, for me
For you, for me

The climate in itself creates a sound so volatile
It makes these words seem clueless forever more
But if in honesty it takes just one dream
To evaluate the chance of choice
Dispelling the clear light
Invincible
Impregnable
For you, for me
For you, for me
Hear it

Down through the age of time
The moment is not and never shall be time
We each revolve around the magnitude
Of time and motion
The point of all is of course not for our earthly talk
For we stand, we walkk, we kick, we provoke
We council, we destroy, we look, we employ
We say, here we are and why
No ther life form asks why
Hear me
Hear me

Oh yes! you critics of life and love
You stallions of the pen and more
While you spew your dry thoughts
On poets of nature, hang them low
Scoff with glee the unfortunate mass
You say stil lclings to the treasures of the past
And music
For you, for me
For you, for me
You hear it now
You hear it now
I hear you now
song list next song previous song Jon Anderson: 3 Ships Forest Of Fire
(Anderson)
Clouds will form into the sky
Watching them could make them disappear
Oh, my, what a glowing earth

They can dance into the wind
Exercise the right to believing
In the real forgiving day

Jingle chimes the greeting nature majesty
Of the one supreme who enlightens
Are they being, this the glowing earth

Set it up to the moon
Set it up to the stars
Seeking all of the world
To wisdom of love
See the nature abound
Super nature around

Deep in the depth of the mystic
Sounds of insects singing a special
Song, oh my, what a moving earth

Souls can dance into the sky
Singing them could make them all to say
One love, oh my, what a shining path
song list Jon Anderson: Letter G previous song Jon Anderson: The More You Know Free (Some Would Say)
(Anderson/Jocky)
Some would say that the point of where you start is the beginning
Some would say it's the end of the space
Some would say there's no reason at all to be wishing
When all along you must face what you must face
I believe it is said that you must be eternal
And to prove it you just let yourself go
And love it when you can. Love it when you can, love

It's a fact like they say
When the push it comes to shoving
You'll never ever go the wrong way to go

You are where you are supposed to be
Whether you like it or not you're living
And your excuse is you want to be free
Free to learn and love
Free to learn and love
Free to learn and love

Some would say that the point of where you start is the beginning
Some would say it's the end of the space
Some would say there's no reason at all to be wishing
When all along you must face what you must face

I believe it is said that you must be eternal
And to prove it you just let yourself go
And love it when you can. Love it when you can, love
