Woke up cold today, I don't know where I am I'm far from home, in another land I hear the bombs exploding all around me bullets fly, the blood is running I hit the ground, I'll sleep tonight another man who's murdered for a cause Woke up very early today to show, we hate war and after the march for peace they'll know but the guard began to raise their rifles bullets fly, we flee, some trampled I hit the ground, this can't be right another man who's murdered for a cause But it shines so brightly sunshine pouring over us, we don't care we'll fight forever some things are just worth fighting for All they ever wanted was a world filled with peace and love their hopes, their dreams, pray to the lord above people loved them, millions minus one but one sure makes a difference with a loaded gun I scream We'll fight forever sunshine pouring over us, we don't care we'll fight forever some things are just worth fighting for Wesley Davis, 1989

See the light upon the water shimmering beneath the dark and crisp moon sky another night so capturing even when wind blows, cries of an empty heart cries of a moment lost, lost in an eternity but I know where you can go and I know where we once walked together and every time I look for your face I know that we should be together again be together, long lost friend and you know I love you as the lord loves his son until this day Now it's winter time the cold air on my face The lifeless trees and the grass covered with a bleached white tapestry no flowers, no life at all under the blackened sky until the dawn breaks though and the darkness burn away and it glows, this heart I find trapped under an ice of anger moonlight shines reflects the water I'm the water and I cry for a long time oh cry yes I do I cry for a long long time hoping we could be together again be together, long friend you know I miss you with my pain Oh yes I'm looking for you, looking for you I search through all these people people staring, the're looking at me I can fly and I sing but I still can't do everything cause I cannot find, I cannot find you all I really want to do is to find you just to see you again, I cannot find you goodbye, goodbye, goodbye goodbye my long lost friend wesley davis, 1989

In a moment of eternity with you my friend In a moment of eternity Great times we had until a second lost one lost thought as we traveled at high speed I hear voice and sign of terror as perfection fell under a deep black spell it must be a dream or nightmare come true no time to think of what I should do a desperate grasp for life and a change in course a prayer, a wish, and a dream In a moment of eternity three live fell in one hand you know that I love you, you know that it's true feel in your heart, even when we're apart Gasping, rolling, screaming in vain I look at the sky and Earth and the dirt as we roll along the freeway, oh let it stop I pray to see one last day we stop I jump out looking pale and scared "where's Kevin?" still echos in my ears and I look to see him lying on the road lifeless on the ground In a moment of eternity three live fell in one hand you know that I love you, you know that it's true feel in your heart, even when we're apart And we see you walking towards the lighted door and we scream for you to stay, we need you more you know that I love you, you know that it's true feel in your heart, even when we're apart In a moment of eternity with you my friend In a moment of eternity Wesley Davis (1988)

Images 04:08
Time like the mysteries of the world we have no key time is a vision we can't see, we can't see Is all that exists only today? or can we stay longer to play? nothing said ever finds what is to be done the evil lies go on and on and on and on and on Time like the mysteries of the world we have no key time is a vision we can't see, we can't see Does freedom ever exist? only for the soul find temptation only to resist, it started long ago No, don't look for the goodness where their hearts are now and no we cannot change from darkness glow not now? bye, bye innocence long before the little boy tunneled past the open field, skeleton trees a whisper so endless, tones from another land a whisper so endless, a violent breeze No, I don't like the negative feelings i the air and no, we cannot change from dark and cold despair cold is soil, bury the images you have seen long, long is the pathway, follow forever a lost dream No, it's not over, together to conquer the mightiest forces to send them away on run away horses to free all the spirits and spread equality Wesley Davis (1989)

It's set in the mountains, it's lying all alone many are frightened, yet they call it home the brotherhood is kind, yet these people are unkown all that we find out, is that which we are shown Shambala Ashrama, Shambala Ashrama Shambala Ashrama, Shambala Ashrama We don't know much, but they believe for watching over the valley is the holy church a mysterious sign hangs over the door a place where the pray to the Egyptian gods they worship worship, and praise, worship and explore Shambala Ashrama, Shambala Ashrama Shambala Ashrama, Shambala Ashrama The people worship, they aren't that primitive the brotherhood of the white temple people who mind as they please they search for the truth down on their knees they just want to live right, that's all we need to know Shambala Ashrama, Shambala Ashrama Shambala Ashrama, Shambala Ashrama Wesley Davis (1988)

It's time for it's the season to shine no rhyme or reason for now as the sun goes down I can see the beautiful world around It's time but I can't say why to reach, reach for the sky beautiful world around me changing forever just like the sea shinning so brightly, see the sun loving and giving as a holy one It's time but I can't say why to reach, reach for the sky captives of life just want to be I can't say that they will be free wishing and praying life was fair but all they do is turn and stare stare into the sun, the gift of life the sun up in the sky It's time, but I can't say why to reach, reach for the sky beautiful world around me changing forever just like the sea shinning so brightly, see the sun loving and giving as a holy one Reach for the sky now I found the reason why Wesley Davis (1988)

Strolling in the darkness nothing is on my mind emptiness surrounds me until the end of time I feel the darkness, see the time slipping by my heart is always burning, I have to get away from here I feel a powerful yearning to live my life free of fear I'm somewhere in nowhere, nowhere in somewhere oh where can I turn to? who can I pray too? I'm somewhere, somewhere in nowhere oh nowhere, nowhere in somewhere In the winter of my life i travel trough the shadows wondering why should I continue til tomorrow listen for the light of the day, hoping that I can get away my eyes look for anyone, anything to think about I lost in the rays of the sun, all I want, is to get out I'm somewhere in nowhere, nowhere in somewhere oh where can I turn to? who can I pray too? I'm somewhere, somewhere in nowhere oh nowhere, nowhere in somewhere Never asking for reason's why i live my life in sorrow wondering why should I continue til tomorrow feel the sadness, see the time slipping by my heart is always aching, I have to get away from here this time there's no mistaking, as I face my final tear I'm somewhere in nowhere, nowhere in somewhere oh where can I turn to? who can I pray too? I'm somewhere, somewhere in nowhere oh nowhere, nowhere in somewhere oh where can I turn to? who can I pray too? Wesley Davis (1988)
