next song Jon & Vangelis: Short Stories 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

Some are born to run
Some are born to fly
It's the essence of the love inbuilt in everyman

Some are born for fun
Some are born for lies
Do not regret a moment living out your life

Some are born to love
Some are born to hide
Through the echoes of the feelings drawn in everyman

Some are born to lose
Some are born to try
For trying harder seems the only way to go

Some are born to run
Some are born to fly
Through the echoes of the feelings drawn in everyman

Some are born to lose
Some are born to try
Trying harder seems the only way to go
Trying harder seems the only way to go

hee we meet, I feel it in the morning light
Getting it together, does it feel right
Ohhh-

Let us be together in the morning light
Let us be together in the dawning light
Ohhh-
Let it through
Let it through

Some are born to run
Some are born to fly
It's the essence of the love inbuilt in everyman

Some are born for fun
Some are born for lies
Do not regret a moment living out your life

Some are born to run
Some are born to fly
Through the echoes of the feelings drawn in everyman

Some are born to run
Some are born to fly
Then we spend some time just hanging around
Them we spend some time just hanging around

next song previous song Jon Anderson: Song Of Seven Don't Forget (Nostalgia)
(Anderson)
Don't forget, I'll always be in love with you
Never let the blues get the best of you
Don't forget, I'll always want you by my side

Don't forget, I'll always want to be with you
By my side, I know my love I'll never hide
It's so easy to say I'll always love you so-yeh

Always times in life when love is so wrong, love is so wrong
They always try to put you down
When ever we're alone

I know we're young, they say we're irresponsible
But don't you cry, our love is not impossible
Don't regret, I'll always want you by my side
Truly, yes I will

And there's something I wanted to say a long time ago
I'll say it right now
There are so many things in life that make me feel bad
But you make me feel so strong

Don't forget, I'll always be in love with you
Never let the blues get the best of you
Don't forget, I'll always want you by my side
Oh, by my side
Oh, baby
By my side
next song previous song Jon Anderson: Song Of Seven Heart Of The Matter
(Anderson/Leahy)
Guess what, I thought about a beautiful day
It simply caught me out in my own time
Thinking about it, I was under the weather
And over the moon at the same time

I really see you baby, every time I guess
In my dreams I love you the best

By going straight to the heart of things
Straight to the heart of the matter
Straight to the heart
To the heart of things
Oh yeah

You did me so much good by calling me up
I really understood your loving at that moment in time
Who could believe me when I really wanted just to
Be with the sun and the sunshine

Really tried so hard to be good to please
You know you got me feeling weak in the knees

I'm going straight to the heart of things
Straight to the heart of the matter
Straight to the turn around
Look around
Oh yeah

Think about it, baby, now I really don't want
To try to get it out, to write it out or spell it out far
Submit me baby, you can do what you want to me
As long as we can get inside the back of your car

Every time I guess, I want you close to me
Every time I guess something happens to me
Every time I guess, don't have to try so hard
I wanna tell you babe
Don't want to let you down

Straight to the heart of things
Straight to the heart of things
Straight to the heart of things
Straight to the heart of things
Straight to the heart of things
Straight to the heart of the matter
next song previous song Jon Anderson: Song Of Seven Hear It
(Anderson)
Hear it in the mystic voice
Of forces long forgotten of
Lions of thunder renting forth
The power of the given Lor

Hear it in the joyful tales
Of princes and their battle quest
Their armour being truth and goodness
To crush all life's evilness

hear it from the mountain side
Where nature spills its silent eyes
The days of paradise are there
The quietness of the dawning skies

Hear it for the love we share
This firmament of song and verse
For just one second share with me
The feelings of the universe

Dance of heaven, feel the feeling of delight
Dance of heaven, feel the feeling of delight
Feel the feeling of delight
In the firmament of time, the middle of the light, the sun and feeling free
next song previous song Jon Anderson: Song Of Seven Everybody Loves You
(Anderson)
Suddenly the feeling came
I wanted just to be with you
And if you answer yes the same
You'll give me more
Than all reasons will

Everybody loves you
But I just love you a little bit more
I just love you a little bit more
You know, everybody loves you

Suddenly the horizon lifts
There's a sign up hhigh, signed liberty
I thought I'd write a love peom for you
Your beauty's right, your music's right

Everybody loves you
But I just love you a little bit more
You know, I just love you a little bit more
Yes, everybody loves you

God, you know he wears a blue t-shirt, too
With God inscribed in heaven on both sides
And if I thought about your love light
It shines through you
Yes, it shines through you

Everybody loves you
But I just love you a little bit more
You know, I just love you a little bit more
Everybody loves you

Suddenly the moment's there
To hold you close
Babe, you're the most
I could take you any time
We so in love
We so in love

Everybody loves you
But I just love you a little bit more
I just love you a little bit more
A little bit
A little bit
More
Everybody loves you
next song previous song Jon Anderson: Song Of Seven Take Your Time
(Anderson)
Rushing here and there, I'm told to slow down
Just relax, take your time, don't move so fast, so fast
Tempers in the air, I'm told to slow down, ease back
By the fire, feel free, feel free

People pushing by and why
I don't mind, take my time, there's no raace
Life is fine, life is fine
Come and take my hand and we'll be in a dream
Just relax, there's no rush, take your time
Take your time

CHORUS
Worry's on your mind, always try to find happiness
Looking everywhere, life is but a care
Love will come always to you

Rushing here and there, I'm told
To slow down, just relax, take your time, don't move so fast
Tempers in the air, I'm told to slow down
Ease back by the fire, feel free, feel free

CHORUS

People pushing by and why
I don't mind, take my time, there's no race
Life is fine, life is fine
Come and take my hand and we'll be in a dream
Just relax, there's no rush, take your time
Take your time
next song previous song Jon Anderson: Song Of Seven Days
(Anderson)
This song of evening's light
Would charge my memory to flight
The trees that listen
Swift wings do carry on through constant
Gardens they offer delight
It is the evening

In deepest woods and fern
Young deer step light through morning's mist
Ascend the swallows
First light streams through the treetops
Bouncing as the flowers illuminate
The breath of morning

This song of ages past
I lay in peace midst grass so green
To reach to skyward
Where larks do sing such high delights
Do pour into my senses
The days are blessings
The days are blessings
The days are blessings
Jon & Vangelis: Friends Of Mr. Cairo previous song Jon Anderson: Song Of Seven Song Of Seven
(Anderson)
In the meeting place I sit beside, betwixt the points of heaven
I befell a friendly atmosphere revolving around seven
Oh, that number mystified my soul and captured within feelings
Those of doubt and understanding, hand in hand they set me reeling

Met me a stranger, he came here to town
Bearing gifts full of promises, discoveries of light
Said me many reasons why my merry tale
Could be justified and just both together entwined
I tell you a reason, he said, "Bless you, you fool, you fool"
You want "so belief," yet you want so much
More," you seeker
Now I see you're baffled, yet again you administer fear
Of the unexpected, you don't know the score
Everywhere you look you release parts of your senses
And everywhere there's purpose in answer to all your dreams
I can hear you saying what a dreamer, what a fool to life
Isn't it a pity that he won't come back to earth

Haven't you imagination, and is it not available
How you can be sooner or later than your thinking
Haven't you imagination and is it so impossible
That you ask of everything so your eyes can see clearly

So in an instant your story bound
A desert, the underground, on mountains high
A glacier, the heat of the day

City jungle, the sky at night
In space on a starry night
An atmosphere impossible
So you never really care

So we talk about the strength of dreams
And we talked at length of every dream
And we talked about the strength of dreams
And we talked about the strength of dreaming

I befell a friendly atmosphere revolving around seven
Oh, that number mystified my soul and captured within feelings
Those of doubt and understanding, hand to hand they set me reeling

In the seventh dream to stand alone
But not without the strength of love
To guide our way, everyday

Oh, the seventh dream, your smile can bring
Love on and on and time will
Flow forever clear
The seventh dream standing so near
And very soon
We'll walk with love
Love that I can sing to you
You
You

Is it this time of day that makes me realise
The sun is coming out to shine again
Tomorrow
Tomorrow
Is it this time of day that gives you hope

Is it this time of times that comes between the light
Are there so many dreamers in this life between a moment's time
And the stairways of love
The starlight
The starlight

Telling me that there's something to
Cling on to
Cling on to
