The Day Begins
|
|
Cold hearted orb that rules the night Removes the colours from our sight Red is gray and yellow, white But we decide which is right And which is an illusion Pinprick holes in a colourless sky Let insipid figures of light pass by The mighty light of ten thousand suns Challenges infinity and is soon gone Night time, to some a brief interlude To others the fear of solitude Brave Helios, wake up your steeds Bring the warmth the countryside needs |

Dawn: Dawn Is a Feeling
|

Dawn is a feeling A beautiful ceiling The smell of grass Just makes you pass Into a dream You're here today No future fears This day will last A thousand years If you want it to You look around you Things they astound you So breathe in deep You're not asleep Open your mind You're here today No future fears This day will last A thousand years If you want it to Do you understand That all over this land There's a feeling In minds far and near Things are becoming clear With a meaning Now that you're knowing Pleasure starts flowing It's true life flies Faster than eyes Could ever see You're here today No future fears This day will last A thousand years If you want it to |

The Morning: Another Morning

Balloons flying Children sighing What a day to go kite flying Breeze is cool Away from school Cowboys fighting out a duel Time seems to stand quite still In a child's world, it always will Fish is biting So exciting Lunchtime sounds so inviting Angler Bill He gets a thrill Sitting, watching bobbing quill Time seems to stand quite still In a child's world, it always will Yesterday's dreams Are tomorrow's sighs Watch children playing They seem so wise Mary Green Today is a queen One thousand dollies are a dream In cotton frocks and golden locks Her palace is an orange box Time seems to stand quite still In a child's world, it always will |

Lunch Break: Peak Hour
|
|
I see it all through my window, it seems Never failing like millions of bees All that is wrong No time to be won All they need to do What can be done Peak hour Peak hour Peak hour Minds are subject to what should be done Problems solved, time cannot be won One hour a day One hour at night Sees crowds of people All meant for flight Peak hour Peak hour Peak hour It makes me want to run out and tell them They've got time Take a step back out And look in I found out I've got time... Minds are subject to what should be done Problems solved, time cannot be won One hour a day One hour at night Sees crowds of people All meant for flight Peak hour Peak hour Peak hour |

The Afternoon: Forever Afternoon (Tuesday?)/(Evening) Time to Get Away

Forever Afternoon Tuesday afternoon I'm just beginning to see Now I'm on my way It doesn't matter to me Chasing the clouds away Something calls to me The trees are drawing me near I've got to find out why Those gentle voices I hear Explain it all with a sigh I'm looking at myself Reflections of my mind It's just the kind of day To leave myself behind So gently swaying Through the fairy-land of love If you'll just come with me And see the beauty of Tuesday afternoon Tuesday afternoon Tuesday, afternoon I'm just beginning to see Now I'm on my way It doesn't matter to me Chasing the clouds away Something calls to me The trees are drawing me near I've got to find out why Those gentle voices I hear Explain it all with a sigh Time to Get Away Evening has come to pass The time of day doesn't last Evening has earned its place today I'm tired of working away Working, living it brings Only way to have those things Toiling has bought too many tears Turn round all those past years Evening time to get away Evening time to get away Evening time to get away Till next day Live all you people You can see where you're at It doesn't really hurt you So that can't be bad Evening time to get away Live all you people You can see where you're at It doesn't really hurt you So that can't be bad Evening time to get away Evening time to get away |

Evening: The Sunset/Twilight Time
|
|
The Sunset When the sun goes down And the clouds all frown Night has begun for the sunset See it with your eyes Earth re-energized By the sun's rays every day Take a look out there Planets everywhere When the sun goes down And the clouds all frown Night has begun for the sunset Shadows on the ground Never make a sound Fading away in the sunset Night has now become Day for everyone I can see it all From this great height I can feel the sun Slipping out of sight And the world still goes on Through the night Twilight Time Twilight Time, to dream awhile In veils of deepening blue As fantasy strides over colourful skies Of form disappearing from view In twilight time, dream with me awhile A nightingale plays a dark mellow phrase Of notes that are rich and so true An aerial display by the firefly brigade Dancing to tunes no one knew In twilight time, dream with me awhile In twilight time, dream with me awhile Building castles in the air Whistling to the wind As nature bows down her head See what tomorrow brings Twilight time, dream with me awhile Bats take to wing, like puppets on string Prancing through cool evening air In a sightless glide, no reason to hide Away from the sun's blinding stare In twilight time, dream with me awhile In twilight time, dream with me awhile |

The Night: Nights in White Satin
|

Nights in white satin Never reaching the end Letters I've written Never meaning to send Beauty I'd always missed With these eyes before Just what the truth is I can't say anymore 'Cause I love you Yes I love you Oh how I love you Gazing at people Some hand in hand Just what I'm going through They can understand Some try to tell me Thoughts they cannot defend Just what you want to be You will be in the end And I love you Yes, I love you Oh, how I love you Oh, how I love you Nights in white satin Never reaching the end Letters I've written Never meaning to send Beauty I'd always missed With these eyes before Just what the truth is I can't say anymore 'Cause I love you Yes, I love you Oh, how I love you Oh, how I love you 'Cause I love you Yes, I love you Oh, how I love you Oh, how I love you Late Lament Breathe deep the gathering gloom Watch lights fade from every room Bedsitter people look back and lament Another day's useless energy spent Impassioned lovers wrestle as one Lonely man cries for love and has none New mother picks up and suckles her son Senior citizens wish they were young Cold hearted orb that rules the night Removes the colours from our sight Red is grey and yellow, white But we decide which is right And which is an illusion |
