Keys Of The Kingdom

Like the rose that blooms in the wintertime
As it reaches up through the snow
The more life keeps apart
The more love will grow
Like the seed that grows in the darkness
As it reaches up to the sun
I will always reach out for you
'cos you are the one

I bless the wings that bring you back to me
Back across the shore
If i could touch you now my darling
And love you just once more
If i could hold you, hold you, hold you,
I know you'd understand,
I know you'd understand.

As i cross the bridge by the waterfall
As i make my way by the stars
There's a shadow walking beside me
Here in my heart
Like the restless wind in the tree tops
Like a whispered voice in my ear
I will always be there for you
I'll always be here

I bless the wings that bring you back to me
Back across the shore
If i could touch you now my darling
And love you just once more
If i could hold you, hold you, hold you,
I know you'd understand,
I know you'd understand.

In a far off wonderland
That flashes past my eyes
The kiss of inspiration that was mine
The dust of many centuries
Has blown across this land
But love will not be scattered by the sand

Like the sunrise over the mountainside
Like the bird that has to be free
There's a part of you that will always be
Part of me
Like the seed that grows in the darkness
I will always reach out for you
'cos you are the one

I bless the wings that bring you back to me
Back across the shore
If i could touch you now my darling
And love you just once more
If i could hold you, hold you, hold you,
I know you'd understand,
I know you'd understand,
I know you'd understand,
I know you'd understand.

Deep peace of the running wave to you
Deep peace of the flowing air to you
Deep peace of the quiet earth to you
Deep peace of the shining star to you
Deep peace of the son of peace to you

One man stood firm guarding cups overflowing
Brimful of memories and yesterday's dreams
He could never explain his own silent thunder
The ocean just blows rough at this time of year

And the wheel keeps on turning
The wheel keeps on turning
The wheel keeps on turning
Turning around

Away we will sail with all our flags flying
Too many changes can cause us delay
Each star in the sky is there for a reason
Making it so bright for this time of day

And the wheel keeps on turning
The wheel keeps on turning
The wheel keeps on turning
This fool made it round

Walking home with you last night
You said the world is beautiful
And how things look that way when you're in love
I love this world
When i'm in your arms
Is this heaven?

I opened up the letter that the
Postman gave to me this morning
Had to stop myself from shouting out
"i love this world"
When i'm in your arms
Is this heaven
When i'm in your arms
Is this heaven

I know that heaven waits
For those whose love is true
I want to be there when
The age of love is come again

Tell me all about yourself
And how you came to me like in a dream
And every night i dream of you
I dream of you
When i'm in your arms
Is this heaven
When i'm in your arms
Is this heaven

I know that heaven waits
For those whose love is true
I want to be there when
The age of love is come again

I sit and watch the sun go down
And in the darkness there's no sound
While in the sky tonight the stars all cry "i love you"
Are they crying out over you
'cos you're in my heart
Is this heaven?
'cos the story starts and ends with you

I've been thinking
The way people do
'bout the things that matter
To me and you
I've decided
To do what i can
And to find the kind of man
I really am
I can see the world from here
And it sometimes makes me
Want to disappear
Back to nature
That's where we belong
And with just one truth i've found
You can't go wrong
Wherever you go
Whatever you do
Whatever you say
Say, say, say
Say it with love.

I remember
A long time ago
When i heard those guitars
That i worship so
I was captured
I wanted to stay
And to hear that kind of music
Everyday
Heard the songs
Around the world
Saw the smiling faces
On the boys and girls
I was destined
To play come what may
And there's just one thing
I knew i had to say
Wherever you go
Whatever you do
Whatever you say
Say, say, say
Say it with love.

Underneath
A sea of doubt
There's a million voices shouting
Let me out, let me out
When we go
We never return
'cos there's just one lesson
That we got to learn
Wherever you go
Whatever you do
Whatever you say
Say, say, say
Say it with love
Say it with love
Say it with love
Say it with love
Say it with love.

When the fantasy we live in
Lies in pieces on the ground
And there is no false illusion
That can turn your heart around
Nothing can change the way i feel
Nothing can take your love from me
If only i didn't worry
If only i could see
If only i could see

Chasing shadows on the wall
Chasing shadows as they dance on the floor
Chasing dreams that were forever young
Now i'm on my own
Chasing shadows on the wall
Shadows on the wall

On the sea of mediocrity
Drifting from a distant shore
No goodbyes no celebration
No-one there to close the door
Only the silence that i feel
Only the lonely road is real
If only i didn't loose you
If only we could be
If only we could be

Chasing shadows on the wall
Chasing shadows as they dance on the floor
Chasing dreams that were forever young
Now i'm on my own
Chasing shadows on the wall
Shadows on the wall
Chasing shadows on the wall
Chasing shadows as they start to fall
Chasing dreams that were forever young
Chasing shadows on the wall
Chasing shadows on the wall
Chasing shadows as they dance on the floor
Chasing shadows on the wall

Sailing along
The river of time
Adrift on dreams
Through midnight chimes
Positively frozen
Crystal waterfalls
The mountain of hope
Is there to be climbed
The sea of serenity
Is rightfully mine
Step on to the water
Knowing what is true

Never blame the rainbows for the rain
And learn to forget the memories
That cause you pain
The last whispered wish of age
Is to live it all again
So never blame the rainbows for the rain

The beat of my heart
The rythm of love
The earth that's beneath us
The heavens above
I can hear forever
Calling out to me
The changes we go though
Are making me strong
The shelter of friendship
Is where we belong
Look into the future
Knowing what we see

Never blame the rainbows for the rain
And learn to forget the memories
That cause you pain
The last whispered wish of age
Is to live it all again
So never blame the rainbows for the rain

The whirpool of doubt
Can spin you around
The wave of emotion
Takes you up
Pulls you down
Leaving far behind us
Sweet young passions spray

Never blame the rainbows for the rain
And learn to forget the memories
That cause you pain
The last whispered wish of age
Is to live it all again
So never blame the rainbows
Never blame the rainbows
Never blame the rainbows for the rain
