Possibility
Stretching endlessly
Out before us
Grasp it in your hand
Hear it in your soul
Don’t let it go
All that is and was
And will ever be
Started here
Step into your life
Leave the past behind
There’s just this moment
There’s just this moment
So much we want to see
So much we long to be
Nothing more than dreams
That will never be
Unless we step into this moment
Carpe Diem, Seize the day
Carpe Diem
What lies here before us
Is the only thing there is
There’s nothing more we’ll ever have
Just this moment
That is waiting to be lived
Dum vivat viviamus
Dum vivat viviamus
Dum vivat viviamus
Dum vivat viviamus
So much we want to see
So much we long to be
Nothing more than dreams
That will never be
Unless we step into this moment
Carpe Diem, Seize the day
Carpe Diem, Carpe Diem, Carpe Diem
Carpe Diem, Seize the day
Carpe Diem
What lies here before us
Is the only thing there is
There’s nothing more we’ll ever have
Just this moment
That is waiting to be lived
Dum vivat viviamus
Dum vivat viviamus
Dum vivat viviamus
Dum vivat viviamus
While we live, let us live
Dum vivat viviamus

As we ride through the darkness
And head for the eye of the storm
Waves crashing high on the ship
As we venture into the unknown
Phantoms playing overhead
The compass starts to spin
As here down below
A ghostly crew mans the deck
Alchemy, blowing on the wind
Let us see
Guide us through this darkest night
Ever onwards descending
The rain beating hard upon us
Passed islands of sorrow
Passed visions of terror and mourning
Heartbeats pounding, fear resounding
As visions of night
try to draw us into their web
Alchemy, blowing on the wind
Set us free
Guide us through this darkest night
Holding on to the ship
As the waves ever wilder crash down upon us
Thoughts losing their way
As deeper into this labyrinth we’re drawn
Nothing here is at it seems
An ocean of illusion
As rocks stand before us
Then vanish into thin air
All around the storm now rages
Lightening strikes, the mast descends
From the shadows cruel despair
Reaches out and calls us to his side
Through the howls of the wind grows a sound
The beating of wings approaching
Above us the mast standing tall
A wind of hope blows through the sails
Angels voices overhead
The clouds begin to part
As all around us a shimmering light starts to glow
In the sky a doorway opens
Calling us to step inside
From the ashes truth now rises
Like a phoenix guiding us home tonight
From the ashes truth now rises
Like a phoenix guiding us home tonight

Here I am, this pain within me
Piercing deep into my heart
Here I am, this day before me
This feeling tearing me apart
But this day will not be lost
I’ll find a way to win
I’ll claim it back again
I won’t give in
For I am strong, this day is mine
I will do more than just survive
I’ll turn the tide
And from this storm within
I’ll find a way to rise
And these waves tossing within me
I will ride each one until they pass
Here in the rain as it falls upon me
I’ll watch and let it follow it’s own path
Here we are, upon this journey
Each of us trying to find our way
Here we are trying to make sense
Of everything that we’ve been through
But who knows what might have been
The paths we’ve left unwalked
But life is here, regrets won’t help
The past is gone, the past is gone
And we are here, and this is life
And from this storm within
We’ll find a way to rise
And these waves tossing within us
We will ride each one until they pass
Here in the rain as it falls upon us
We’ll watch and let it follow it’s own path
And we will rise
Yes, we will rise from our surrender
Yes, we will rise
Yes, we will rise
And these waves tossing within us
We will ride each one until they pass
We will rise!

Feel the wind on my face
Sense the stars up above
Breathe the world in around me
Know there’s nothing to fear
Know that I’m really here
And this beauty astounds me
For last night I said goodbye
To stories hidden long ago
Deep inside
Now the pain’s disappeared
Now the need is no more
Now at last I can breathe
To the depth of my soul
Know alone I am whole
Know at last I am free
Free as the breeze to go where I please
Free as the birds that fly above the trees
As the rivers will flow
As the world turns around
As the sun shines upon us
As all life it must flow
Then return to the ground
In my life I will be free
Free as the birds in the trees
Free
For last night I said goodbye
And though the clouds may come and go
I’ve seen inside
See the beauty that’s here
Leave behind all your fear
Trust in all that you are
Like a child of the tide
On the ocean of life
And together we’ll be free
Free as the birds in the trees
Free
Free
Free as the breeze to go where we please
Free as the birds that fly above the trees

Come Back to Me

Through the trees I hear you calling
Reaching out to me
Though no words are spoken
I hear you within my heart
Tears fall in silence
Flow like a river
Let them awaken your heart
Come back to me
Say you’ll return
Safe to these shores once more
Winter winds blow across the sea
As the days retreat
Love like a bird flies from my heart
Lighting your way through the dark
Love like a bird
Flies through the night
Lighting your way through the dark
Sea of dreams hold me now
Sea of dreams carry me back
Carry me back to your arms
Tears fall in silence
Flow like a river
Let them awaken your heart
Aah, let them awaken your heart
Aah, let them awaken your heart
Tears fall in silence
Flow like a river

The Garden of Wisdom

I can hear your voice again
Calling through the night
Pulling me towards the door,
Your lies begin once more,
Whispering of pain and fear
You try to weave your spell
And draw me in your labyrinth
The darkness where you dwell
But this time I see through the clouds
From this hillside I will survey
Each illusion I’ll turn away
Every game will remain as the nothing it is
I’ll walk unconcerned through the dark
For this time it’s you
who will dance to my tune
This time it’s I’ll beat the drum
This time the lantern of truth shining brightly
I will remain in the sun
For I’m breaking free
The shackles of darkness are falling from me
I’m breaking free
As I wake in the garden of wisdom
Her light setting me free
Now the light shines on the years
Truth from lies are clear at last
In love’s arms trust grows again
As I cradle the pain and then bid it farewell
And watch it return to the ground
For now I will dance to the music of life
Now I will live in this moment
Touching and tasting from all that life brings me
I’ll flow down the river once more
I’m breaking free
The shackles of darkness are falling from me
I’m breaking free
As I wake in the garden of wisdom
Now the light shines
Now the light shines
Now the light shines
For this time it’s you who will dance to my tune
This time it’s I’ll beat the drum
For this time it’s you who will dance to my tune
This time it’s I’ll beat the drum
This time the lantern of truth shining brightly
I will remain in the sun
For I’m breaking free
The shackles of darkness are falling from me
I’m breaking free
As I wake in the garden of wisdom
Her light setting me free
I’m breaking free
As I wake in the garden of wisdom
Her light setting me free
I’m breaking free, I’m breaking free

The Dance

From the hills the music plays
Calling me to join the dance
Who can say what’s right or wrong
Who can say where we belong
From the earth life grows anew
On the air blow winds of change
Through my hair the breezes blow
Sunlight glistening on the rain
Now my heart resounds again
To the melodies I hear
Rising, turning to the music
Calling me to joy again
Feel the rhythm of the earth
Hear her heartbeat down below
To the forest’s edge I ride
Leaving darkness far behind
Over fields I’m riding
Carried on this silvery steed
Through the air I’m flying
Aah, don’t let me fall
Up above the stars now shine,
Singing songs from distant times
All around Life’s music plays
Her symphony of joy
Colours swirling round the fire
Dancing leaping ever higher
Reaching out you take my hand
Dancing now I’m in your arms
Now my heart resounds again
Rising, turning to the music
Calling me to love again
Through the air I’m flying
Carried now within your arms
To the stars I’m rising
Aah
Don’t let me fall, don’t let me fall
Don’t let me fall, don’t let me fall
Don’t let me fall, don’t let me fall

Believing

Watching and waiting
And wondering what tomorrow will bring
Hoping and holding
Then hearing sounds of angel wings
Carried through a midnight sky
Gazing at the world below
Seeing as I’ve never seen
Believing
Trusting and doubting
And reaching for the truth within
Rising and falling
Then hearing sounds of angel wings
Seeing as I’ve never seen
Believing
Take my hand
Let’s dance together
Up among the stars
Seeing as we’ve never seen
We’ve never seen
Carried through a midnight sky
Gazing at the world below
Seeing as I’ve never seen
Believing
Gazing at the world below
Seeing as I’ve never seen
Believing, believing
Believing, believing

The Journey

Looking out upon this great unknown
Got to go, got to see
Got to find a way
Looking out upon this great unknown
Adventure beckoning be bold
The past now loosening it’s hold
You know it’s time to go
Your dreams so near and yet so far
A breathe away is all you are
Everything awaiting within
Reach deep in yourself
Past the shadowed hordes
That turn the light away
Raise your sails to the wind
Let this journey begin
Know you have done all you can do
Let love now fill your heart anew
Release the pain and live again
Cast your fears into the ocean deep
Release your spirit now and reach
To the stars, you’ve come this far
You’ve come this far
Reach deep in yourself
Past the shadowed hordes
That turn the light away
Raise your sails to the wind
Let this journey begin
Let this journey begin
Let this journey begin
Don’t look back, trust in all you are
Hold this moment, don’t let go
Ride upon the waves,
Let your voice be heard
Cast your fears aside
And leap!
Your dreams so near and yet so far
A breath away is all you are
Only one life, it’s time to choose
Release yourself, untie the noose
Let the lies just wither and die
And leap!
Reach deep in yourself
Past the shadowed hordes
That turn the light away
Raise your sails to the wind
Let this journey begin
Reach deep in yourself
Past the shadowed hordes
That turn the light away
Raise your sails to the wind
Let this journey begin!

For those that remember the Look and Read series in the early eighties (which had such programmes as 'Dark Towers'), in my opinion this music evokes those feelings of mystery and wonder. Very, very impressed.

Fantasy progressive rock is not something I'd ever thought of. Yet Foreign Land, especially the Foreign Land track itself, transported me straight into an unknown, magical fantasy world.
