A Song For All Seasons

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

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

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

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
