Rings Of Changes

I have seen and i have heard
The story's all the same
Running here and running there
Your love is like a game
Everytime i look for you
You're walking in the clouds
When i look into your eyes
I see you looking down

You've got something that i want
You've got something that i need
If there's a chance that i can see
I will follow where you lead me


High wire, walking on a high wire
You're walkin' on a high wire
You're walkin' tall
But you know you're gonna fall someday


I have seen and i have heard
That you've been fooling me
You could try to make me feel
The way i used to be
Is there any reason why
You leave me on the shore?
When i look into your eyes
It makes me beg for more


You've got something that i want
You've got something that i need
If there's a chance that i can see
I will follow where you lead me


High wire, walking on a high wire
You're walkin' on a high wire
You're walkin' tall
But you know you're gonna fall from your...

Met an old friend the other day
Recognised from a different age
Like a ghost in a photograph
Distant memories of the past
There was nico and limpopo
Ipaminandas and young nero
All the old friends we've known so well
With all the stories they'll never tell

All it took was a photograph
To bring the memories chasing back
Of summer sunshine and cool green wine
And all the good times we'd left behind
We'd take the road down to almansil
If i had known then we'd be there still
We left our hearts in the soft sea spray
With every quinta do lago day


The wind in your hair
The sun in your face
The feeling of the power
The beauty and grace
Paraiso dos cavalos
Paraiso dos cavalos


Through our minds move the souls
Of our bygone years
As we ride through their ancient tears
To a place to a time where
We'd all be saved
To gallop on in the breaking waves


At paraiso dos cavalos
Paraiso dos cavalos

Talk of tomorrow
And you talk of the times that have been
The wheels keep on turning
Turning circles we go round again
Never ending the time is bending
These songs all the same
And we will stand listening
Looking back on the ones that remain

And time hurries on
We are here, we are gone
And time passes on
All the words of your song


Turn the pages
Nothing ages
That's what you will see
Turn the pages
Ring of changes
Is what it will be


The sun when it's rising
Paints a shadow on where it has been
And night is surprising
To the people who stand in between
Filling spaces you see their face
As they wake from their dream
And we will stand looking
Taking note of the things we have seen


And time hurries on
We are here, we are gone
And time passes on
All the words of your song


Turn the pages
Nothing ages
That's what you will see
Turn the pages
Ring of changes
Is what it will be

There is something that i can see
Every time that you talk to me
And it feels like i'm gonna be
Looking from the outside
There is something i've got to say
And it's making me feel this way
Does it mean that i'm gonna stay
Looking from the outside

I might as well fall
I might as well drift away
I might as well fall
It seems there is no other way
Looking from the outside
Looking from the outside
Looking for the inside of you


If i say that i like your song
Will you say that you played it wrong
Or that maybe i stayed too long
Looking from the outside
If i say that you're out of line
Will you say that i'm wasting time
'cos it's making me feel that i'm
Looking from the outside


I might as well fall
I might as well drift away
I might as well fall
It seems there is no other way
Looking from the outside
Looking from the outside
Looking for the inside of you

Seems to me, the time has come
Party's over, you sit by the 'phone
Through the daytime, you're gonna be all right
But when the night time comes
You're gonna be alone

Even though your heart is breaking
I see it in your eyes
Even though there's no mistaking
I see there's no disguise


Waiting for the right time
To call out your name
Oh, the right time
To see you again
Oh, the right time
To reach out and touch your face


We said goodbye in the morning
Streets were empty and pouring rain
All the worries, all the bad times
Will simply fly right out of here
When i speak your name


Even though your heart is breaking
I see it in your eyes
Even though there's no mistaking
I see there's no disguise


Waiting for the right time
To call out your name
Oh, the right time
To see you again
Oh, the right time
To reach out and touch your face
