Lyrics:
Pastie suppers down at Davey's chipper
Gravy rings, wagon wheels, barmbracks, snowballs.
A sense of wonder
A sense of wonder
A sense of wonder
Like the sun playing
In the morning
Feel the quiet
Feel the thunder
Oh every ladder
Leads to heaven
Call it ransom
Draw the picture
Sing the changes
Oh as you're sleeping
Feel the quiet
In the thunder
Sing the changes
Calling over
Feel the quiet
In the thunder
Like the sun playing
In the morning
Feel the quiet
Feel the thunder
Oh every ladder
Leads to heaven
Colored pencils
Draw the picture
Sing your praises
As you're sleeping
Sing the changes
Any wonder
Feel the sense of
Childlike wonder
Sing your praises
As you're sleeping
Sing the changes
Oh as you're sleeping
Feel the quiet
In the thunder
Sing the changes
Calling over
Feel the quiet
In the thunder
Sing your praises
As you're sleeping
Feel the quiet
In the thunder
Sing the changes
Calling over
Everybody has a sense of
Childlike wonder
Sense of wonder
Sing your praises
As you're sleeping
Feel the quiet
In the thunder
Sing the changes
Calling over
Everybody has a sense of childlike wonder
Give me
Release
Witness me
I am
Outside
Give me peace
Heaven holds a sense of wonder
And I wanted to believe
That I'd get caught up
When the rage in me subsides
I can't
Help this longing
Comfort me
I can't
Hold it all in
If you won't let me
Heaven holds a sense of wonder
And I wanted to believe
That I'd get caught up
When the rage in me subsides
In this white wave
I am sinking
In this silence
In this white wave
In this silence
I believe
In this white wave
I am sinking
In this silence
In this white wave
In this silence
I believe
I have seen you
In this white wave
You are silent
You are breathing
In this white wave
I am free
Give me
Release
Witness me
I am
Outside
Give me peace
Heaven holds a sense of wonder
And I wanted to believe
That I'd get caught up
When the rage in me subsides
I can't
Help this longing
Comfort me
I can't
Hold it all in
If you won't let me
Heaven holds a sense of wonder
And I wanted to believe
That I'd get caught up
When the rage in me subsides
In this white wave
I am sinking
In this silence
In this white wave
In this silence
I believe
In this white wave
I am sinking
In this silence
In this white wave
In this silence
I believe
I have seen you
In this white wave
You are silent
You are breathing
In this white wave
I am free
No before after, yes after before
We were shining our light into the days of blooming wonder
In the eternal presence, in the presence of the flame.
Didn't I come to bring you a sense of wonder
Didn't I come to lift your fiery vision bright
Didn't I come to bring you a sense of wonder in the flame.
No before after, yes after before
We were shining our light into the days of blooming wonder
In the eternal presence, in the presence of the flame.
Didn't I come to bring you a sense of wonder
Didn't I come to lift your fiery vision bright
Didn't I come to bring you a sense of wonder in the flame.
Give me release
Witness me
I am outside
Give me peace
Heaven holds a sense of wonder
And I wanted to believe
That I'd get caught up
When the rage in me subsides
In this white wave
I am sinking
In this silence
In this white wave
In this silence
I believe
Passion chokes the flower
'til she cries no more
Possessing all the beauty
Hungry still for more
Heaven holds a sense of wonder
I can't help this longing
Comfort me
I can't hold it all in
If you won't let me
Heaven holds a sense of wonder
In this white wave
I am sinking
In this silence
In this white wave
In this silence
I believe
I have seen you
In this white wave
You are silent
You are breathing
In this white wave
I am free
Can I play with madness?
Give me the sense to wonder
To wonder if I'm free
Give me a sense of wonder
To know I can be me
Give me the strength to hold my head up
Spit back in their face
Don't need no key to unlock this door
Gonna break down the walls
Break out of this bad place
Can I play with madness?
Can I play with madness?
Give me the sense to wonder
To wonder if I'm free
Give me a sense of wonder
To know I can be me
Give me the strength to hold my head up
Spit back in their face
Don't need no key to unlock this door
Gonna break down the walls
Break out of this bad place
Can I play with madness?
Ain't got room for charity
This skeleton's mine
Me, I'm crawling with no cash
Chop it up
Me, I'm looking for hot flesh
Chop it up
Blood on video, video crime
Video crime
Needles and pins and video crime
Video crime
I've got dollars, I've got sense
Wonder where the third world went
Ain't got time for honeymoon
Chop it up
Trash time Bundy, death row chic
Chop it up
Haunt this street from half past ten
Chop it up
Blood on video, video crime
Video crime
Needles and pins and video crime
Video crime
Late night cannibal, cripples decay
Just can't tear my eyes away
Ain't got no room for charity
This skeleton's mine
Ain't got room for Hollywood
Chop it up
Me, I'm crawling with no cash
Chop it up
Blood on video, video crime
Video crime
Needles and pins and video crime
Video crime
I've got dollars, I've got sense
Wonder where the third world went
Video crime
Chop it up, video crime
Chop it up, video crime
Chop it up, video crime
Chop it up, video crime
And we walked the pagan streams
And searched for white horses on surrounding hills
We lived where dusk had meaning
And repaired to quiet sleep, where noise abated
In touch with the silence
On Honey Street, on Honey Street
What happened to a sense of wonder
On yonder hillside, getting dim
Why didn't they leave us, alone
Why couldn't we just be ourselves
We could dream, and keep bees
And live on Honey Street
And we walked the pagan streams
In meditation and contemplation
And we didn't need anybody, or anything
Then, no concepts, being free
And I want to climb that hillside again, with you
One more time
As the great, great, great, great, great, great, great
Being watches over
And we repair, repair, repair, shh, repair, shh, we repair
To Honey Street, to Honey Street.
It's the age of reason for the anarchist
It's a change of venue for the lobbyist
It's a dream of justice buried in the grist
It's a secret briefing based on need to know
It's a condescending rationale from command control
Feel the sense of wonder at the overthrow
It's a right of passage through a hurricane
Through a rolling thunder through a screaming rain
Hear the shriek of Abel hear the cry of Cain
And Abraham will take his son
Five billion years from now the cruelty will be done
Make a destination
Of the greater truth
Make 'em hang their heads and eat their words
When you find the proof
This is all you're given
It's your only move
It's a right of passage for the everyman
To a higher ground
To a brighter light
To a promised land
You can feel the power
Of the master's hand
It's a right of passage
Possessing all the beauty,
Hungry still for more...
Heaven holds a sense of wonder,
And I wanted to believe
That I'd get caught up,
When the rage in me subsides...
In this spiraling...
Whatever it takes to fulfill his mission
That is the way we must go
But you've got to do it your own way
Tear down the old, bring up the new
And up on the hillside it's quiet
Where the shepherd is tending his sheep
And over the mountains and the valleys
And the countryside is so green
Standing on the highest hill with a sense of wonder
You can see everything is made in God
Head back down the roadside
And give thanks for it all
When will I ever learn to live in God?
Whatever it takes to fulfill his mission
That is the way we must go
But you've got to do it your own way
Tear down the old, bring up the new
And up on the hillside it's quiet
Where the shepherd is tending his sheep
And over the mountains and the valleys
And the countryside is so green
Standing on the highest hill with a sense of wonder
You can see everything is made in God
Head back down the roadside
And give thanks for it all
When will I ever learn to live in God?
(Dolly Parton)
I flew off to the wild blue yonder
'Cause I had a dream
And I had to go
But I'm filled with a sense of wonder
From the love I shared
With a green-eyed boy
Lips as sweet as mountain honey
A body warm as home made wine
But he had no dreams
And no means for money
But he had me just anytime
Take me back, If just in memory
Fill my cup again with joy
The fire still burns in the old rock chimney
And I still burn for that green-eyed boy
Now he was pretty
With chiseled features
Like the movie stars in the magazines
My first love and the son of a preacher
I fantasized me was James Dean
But the world outside kept pulling at me
Offered me fame, respect, and gold
Designer clothes and a fancy mansion
Expensive cars, so I chose those
Take me back, If just in memory
Fill my cup again with joy
The fire still burns in the old rock chimney
And I still burn for that green-eyed boy
Take me back, If just in memory
Fill my cup again with joy
The fire still burns in the old rock chimney
And I still burn for that green-eyed boy
Ooh, ooh, how I love that green-eyed boy
Ooh, ooh, ooh, and I still miss
That green-eyed boy
Do you think about me
When the nights are long and cold
Do you ever miss me
Do you my green-eyed boy
You can see forever
Look inside of your mind
Find a sense another wonder
Just release the fears you left behind
Feel your way through the darkness
Guide your soul into the light
Swim into the open water
Drift on the tides that you may find
Find your soul in the sunrise
Look around you can see it in their eyes
Be as one together
Rise up as the emptiness subsides
You can see forever
Rise up together
Search and you will find the answer
If you look deep inside of your mind
You gotta think about it
You gotta make a wish and count to ten
There's just a sense of wonder
I feel a new direction looking down the lens
Jump started the action
Heard a song in my head and wrote it down
It came out of nowhere
Felt a new sensation driving you through town
You're an open chord I wanna play all day
A new broom sweeping up the sins I no longer play
Cleaning out the corners
Clipping off the horns
That the Devil used to make me wear all day
You're an open chord I'm gonna play all day
You're gonna see some changes
Gotta pinch myself just to believe
Everybody's having something
But I can tell you've got some magic up your sleeve
Some deep protection
When a feeling follows you around
I always need the silence
Or the lightning you bring like a new good sound
You're an open chord I wanna play all day
A new broom sweeping up the sins I no longer play
Cleaning out the corners
Clipping off the horns
That the Devil used to make me wear all day
You're an open chord I'm gonna play all day
Sat around and waited for a spark
And it brightened up the night
Before I get much older
I want the pleasure of seeing you up in lights
I could then beside you
Hand over my heart and say a prayer
Love's not for quitters
It's a satisfaction
Knowing that you're there
You're an open chord I wanna play all day
A new broom sweeping up the sins I no longer play
Cleaning out the corners
Clipping out the horrors
That the Devil used to make me wear all day
You're an open chord I'm gonna play all day
Cleaning out the corners
Clipping out the horrors
That the Devil used to make me wear all day
You're an open chord I'm gonna play all day
You're an open chord I'm gonna play all day
Sometimes I sit here hearing voices in my head
I try to understand, to make some sense.
I wonder if I had to, would I lie to save myself?
A plea of guilty, but self defense.
If I asked him nicely d'you think he'd show me how?
All of nature in it's place
By hand of the designer
Comes our Charlie spins the world
From here to Asia Minor
In between the Platypus
And perfect Aphrodite
Charlie come with opposing thumb
To question the Almighty
Over the river and over the sea
Through holy storm and thunder
Steer a course for a brave new world
Of common sense and wonder
See the dancing President
The congressman and teacher
Jumpin' to the music of
The wealthy Midwest preacher
Charlie come with a brand new dance
Get on the floor and follow
Find yourself a partner and
We'll swing into tomorrow
Over the river and over the sea
Through holy storm and thunder
Steer a course for a brave new world
Of common sense and wonder
Armed with truth we're stepping out
Come join the worldwide party
Charge your glass and face the world
We'll drink a toast to Charlie
Over the river and over the sea
Through holy storm and thunder
Steer a course for a brave new world
Of common sense and wonder
I hope you never lose your sense of wonder
You get your fill to eat but always keep that hunger
May you never take one single breath for granted
God forbid love ever leave you empty handed
I hope you still feel small when you stand beside the ocean
Whenever one door closes I hope one more opens
Promise me that you'll give faith a fighting chance
And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance
I hope you dance
I hope you dance
I hope you never fear those mountains in the distance
Never settle for the path of least resistance
Livin' might mean takin' chances, but they're worth takin'
Lovin' might be a mistake, but it's worth makin'
Don't let some hell-bent heart leave you bitter
When you come close to sellin' out, reconsider
Give the heavens above more than just a passing glance
And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance
I hope you dance (time is a wheel in constant motion always rolling us along)
I hope you dance
I hope you dance (tell me who wants to look back on their years and wonder)
I hope you dance (where those years have gone?)
And the village drunk
Sadly passed away
It was a shame
I never knew his name
I wonder if he sat there every morning
And watched the sun rise
How do you rate the morning sun?
It was just too heavy for me
And all I wanted was the world
If you are the starlet in the sun
Don't go wasting your time
'Cause there is no finish line
And you don't see anything
Not even love, not anything
The night can take the man from you
A sense of wonder overdue
The morning brings a mystery
The evening makes it history
Who am I to rate the morning sun?
You can see forever
Look inside of your mind
Find a sense another wonder
Just release the fears you left behind
Feel your way through the darkness
Guide your soul into the light
Swim into the open water
Drift on the tides that you may find
Find your soul in the sunrise
Look around you can see it in their eyes
Be as one together
Rise up as the emptiness subsides
You can see forever
Rise up together
Search and you will find the answer
If you look deep inside of your mind
Car culture looks out at you
Driving through a freeway
Night on your own
You don't have to please me
Or pick up my tab
Don't have to go too fast
Just change my life
Change my life
Change my life
Change my life
I miss the way you hold yourself
I miss the sense of wonder inside
Don't want to be your victims of life
Don't want your exclusive rights
I just want you to change my life
Change my life
Change my life
Change my life
