Ah, home. Journey home. 
 

  
2. CITIES   ...   RealAudio
  
Calah, Tikal, Angkor. Cities.  
Tokyo, Bombay, Lagos, L.A.  
New York, Cairo, Bangkok, Rio.  
Cities, Ruins.  
  
Upon the ancient waterway,  
the ship cuts through the North Pacific.  
Standing silent on the prow, anxious faces search the skies.  
They stare to shore with wondering eyes,  
taste the salt of former lives.  
Exiled, grieving, burdened, leaving cities.  
  
(Calah, Tikal, Angkor, etc.)  
  
The sky descends and blocks the sun.  
Shadows fall on everyone.  
Storms without and storms within,  
humans doubt their chance to win.  
They search the past with brimming eyes.  
Clutch at truths, agonize.  
Exiled, grieving, burdened, leaving cities  
  
(Calah, Tikal, Angkor, etc.)  
Surrender to the rhythm.  
Embrace the mystic flow.  
Surrender to this cradle.  
Rocking and rolling and rocking and rolling.  
  
The days rush by, cradle rocks.  
Nights are filled with future talk.  
An island here, an island there. Sailors plot and fill the air  
with hopes and plans, with lofty schemes.  
Past is gone, aching dreams.  
Exiled, grieving, burdened, leaving cities.  
  
(Calah, Tikal, Angkor etc.)  
  
Some seek a new beginning. Some tear themselves apart  
Some take their weapons in their arms,  
spinning and spinning and spinning.  

3. VISION  ...   RealAudio

One evening, I wandered out where the sky was clear. 
I saw a stranger, he was drawing near. He came to me. 
His head was bald. Eyes were brighter than the winter skies. 
They spoke a language that moistened my eyes. 
He said to me: 
"Cast your vision, cast it far 
See the future in the stars." 
 

We walked along. His gait was steady,  
his words were strong. 
We stopped in shadows, he faced the sky, he asked of me: 
"Join me in my nearby home. 
Let me show you all I own." 
 

He touched my head. My eyes were burning,  
my body rose high. 
I woke to find there were crystals in my eyes, 
my sight was new! 
 

I closed my eyes. I saw the ocean, I felt the breeze. 
I saw a ship riding high on the seas. 
It called to me:  
 

"Cast your vision, cast it wide, 
See the answers in the skies." 
 

The air was cold. I stood alone in the night. 
My dream was heavy, my waking was light. 
I raised my eyes. I saw a ship move into shore 
I heard a voice call me to board: 
"Cast your vision, cast it high." 
 

I travel far. Carry my vision like a light. 
Seeking the answers in the night. 
Years go by.

Is the body the world? 
Is the body the world? 
The body is a secret door. 
Ah. Love the body. 
Ah. Give the body. 
Beyond the door the rooms are deep. 
Ah. Love the body. 
Ah. Give the body. 

Within one chamber lies the crown. 
It lights the way to hidden past. 
Deeper, deeper.  

Hear the voices?  

Are they calling out? 
Listen! 
The body is a secret door. 
Ah. Love the body. 
Ah. Give the body. 

It lights the way to the hidden self. 
Ah. Love the body. 
Ah. Give the body. 
Is the body the world?  

Is the body the world?

8. LULLABY...   RealAudio

............................ .MP3

You lie here in my arms. 
Your head upon my thigh. 
I look upon your face, I stroke your brow. 
 

Your lips begin to move. 
The words pour out and float like ribbons in the wind, 
They float away. 
 

These words, your song. 
A life that must be told. 
A life that must let go. 
 

I'll hold you and caress you as you dream your dream. 
Hold you and caress you in these silver hours. 
Hold you close and listen to your final words. 
Let them go. 
 

If you have lies. 
If you have secrets. 
If you have promises unkept, let them go. 
 

If you were unloved. 
If you were abandoned. 
If you had all the gifts this world can give, let them go. 
 

Let them float upon the currents into shore. 
Let your body give itself to evermore. 
Let the perfume of this world take your limbs 
and make them weightless. 
Let them go. 
 

You lie here in my arms. 
Your head upon my thigh. 
I watch you as you float away from shore. 
I let you go. 
  
 

9. DOLPHIN DREAM         RealAudio
....................................................MP3 

Skin on skin. 
Breath to breath. 
Beat to beat. 
I feel your body on the waves, the rolling waves. 
 

I feel the rhythm of the naked and the moving, and the sighing, 
and the smoothing of our skin. 
Skin on skin. 
 

Hold my hands and we will fly naked 
through the changing breathing, 
satin feeling, deeper seeing, wetter being,  
skin on skin. 
 

Ancient times in Java. 
Steam rising.  
Heat and the pulling the body onto land. 
And then to stand. 
 

Eyes burning. 
Sun, and escaping to the trees to smell the breeze.  
Nose filling, eyes filling, ears filling, touch full. Ah! 
 

Now return to the deep. 
To the future we will glide,  
aching through the crushing, heaving, dying, 
breathing, starving, greeding, pressing,  
crowding of skin on skin. 
Foresee the future while you can. 

10. SIGHT   ...  RealAudio
  
Going in search of a dream.  
Knowing the quest will be long  
Traveling light and alone  
Dreaming journey vision  
  
Journeying into the night  
Losing all sight of the dream.  
Giving the body to time.  
Dreaming journey vision  
  
Perhaps I'm dreaming now.  
An enormous ship in the air, carrying many  
fearful people. The sky is dark. The planet blue.  
When the sky brightens, my eyes lift,  
and there is the future. I can't say why,  
but I feel that I know this place.  
  
Home where the mind can be full  
Home where the heart is on fire  
Home where the journey begins  
Dreaming journey vision.  
  
Going in search of a dream  
Knowing the quest will be long.  
Knowing that life does not end.  
Dreaming journey vision.  
   

11. FUTURE ...  
 

Holy crosses. Ancient names 
Sacred robes. In flames. 
People chanting, "Save our Day!" 
Sky is golden. 
 

At the harbour, journey-bound. 
Thousands waiting, no sound. 
One voice rises like a bell, 
"Hear the future!" 
Changes, promise, freedom. 
 

On the water, far away. 
Island glowing, night and day. 
Island pulling, like a love. See the future! 

On a ship upon the brine. 
Endless searching, lost time. 
Then come voices, with a cry, 
Words that terrify. "Changes, promise, freedom. 
Changes, promise..." 
 

"You must listen," voices sigh.  
"Hear your body, close your eyes." 
Body opening, past is rising. "Show me the future!" 

Then the voices, pressing near, whisper gently, 
"No fear. See the future in the past. Make the journey." 
Changes. Promise. Freedom. 
 

Through the water to the past. 
Body changing, swimming fast. 
Rising naked to the shore. 
Life is dawning! 
 

Dreamy gazing at the sky. 
Star is gleaming nearby. 
See it moving down to earth.
"Here's the future!" 
Changes, promise, freedom.  
 

Holy crosses, ancient names, 
sacred robes, in flames... etc.
