I. the solid time of change | |
(anderson/howe) | |
A seasoned witch could call you from the depths of your disgrace, | |
And rearrange your liver to the solid mental grace, | |
And achieve it all with music that came quickly from afar, | |
Then taste the fruit of man recorded losing all against the hour. | |
And assessing points to nowhere, leading ev'ry single one. | |
A dewdrop can exalt us like the music of the sun, | |
And take away the plain in which we move, | |
And choose the course you're running. | |
Down at the edge, round by the corner, | |
Not right away, not right away. | |
Close to the edge, down by a river, | |
Not right away, not right away. | |
Crossed the line around the changes of the summer, | |
Reaching out to call the color of the sky. | |
Passed around a moment clothed in mornings faster than we see. | |
Getting over all the time i had to worry, | |
Leaving all the changes far from far behind. | |
We relieve the tension only to find out the master's name. | |
Down at the end, round by the corner. | |
Close to the edge, just by a river. | |
Seasons will pass you by. | |
I get up, i get down. | |
Now that it's all over and done, | |
Now that you find, now that you're whole. | |
Ii. total mass retain | |
(anderson/squire) | |
My eyes convinced, eclipsed with the younger moon attained with love. | |
It changed as almost strained amidst clear manna from above. | |
I crucified my hate and held the word within my hand. | |
There's you, the time, the logic, or the reasons we don't understand. | |
Sad courage claimed the victims standing still for all to see, | |
As armoured movers took approached to overlook the sea. | |
There since the cord, the license, or the reasons we understood will be. | |
Down at the edge, close by a river. | |
Close to the edge, round by the corner. | |
Close to the end, down by the corner. | |
Down at the edge, round by the river. | |
Sudden problems shouldn't take away the startled memory. | |
All in all, the journey takes you all the way. | |
As apart from any reality that you've ever seen and known. | |
Guessing problems only to deceive the mention, | |
Passing paths that climb halfway into the void. | |
As we cross from side to side, we hear the total mass retain. | |
Down at the edge, round by the corner. | |
Close to the end, down by a river. | |
Seasons will pass you by. | |
I get up, i get down. | |
Iii. i get up, i get down | |
(anderson/howe) | |
In her white lace, you could clearly see the lady sadly looking. | |
Saying that she'd take the blame | |
For the crucifixion of her own domain. i get up, | |
I get down, | |
I get up, | |
I get down. | |
Two million people barely satisfy. | |
Two hundred women watch one woman cry, too late. | |
The eyes of honesty can achieve. | |
How many millions do we deceive each day? | |
I get up, i get down. | |
I get up, i get down. | |
In charge of who is there in charge of me. | |
Do i look on blindly and say i see the way? | |
The truth is written all along the page. | |
How old will i be before i come of age for you? | |
I get up, i get down. | |
I get up, i get down. | |
I get up, i get down. | |
Iv. seasons of man | |
(anderson/howe) | |
The time between the notes relates the color to the scenes. | |
A constant vogue of triumphs dislocate man, it seems. | |
And space between the focus shape ascend knowledge of love. | |
As song and chance develop time, lost social temp'rance rules above. | |
Ah, ah. | |
Then according to the man who showed his outstretched arm to space, | |
He turned around and pointed, revealing all the human race. | |
I shook my head and smiled a whisper, knowing all about the place. | |
On the hill we viewed the silence of the valley, | |
Called to witness cycles only of the past. | |
And we reach all this with movements in between the said remark. | |
Close to the edge, down by the river. | |
Down at the end, round by the corner. | |
Seasons will pass you by, | |
Now that it's all over and done, | |
Called to the seed, right to the sun. | |
Now that you find, now that you're whole. | |
Seasons will pass you by, | |
I get up, i get down. | |
I get up, i get down. | |
I get up, i get down. | |
I get up. |
