Window 07:10
WINDOW Through it’s frame There I look ‘sfar as sight can see To a shrub Then the house Objects of the street Further on To that block That is towering Then up high Bird in sky On the wind winding Go there, and you know it so well Somewhere you can roam Out there where heart swells Follow down that line And know I can wait Lets meet then across Sea ya-dah-dai-yah Sea ya-dah-dai-yah In through the window Wind curls around you Perhaps the ocean’s Dancing like water See it’s curl Reaching out As I whisper your name Mirrored thoughts Taking course Through this window frame In through the window Wind curls around you Perhaps the ocean’s Dancing like water In through the window Something to tell you Perhaps the ocean Calling to wonder My meditation to limitations In the corner of my mind Reach for a window Then to a bird flow A cut out to a time Go there and you know it so well Somewhere you can roam Out there where heart swells Follow down that line And know I can wait Lets meet then across Sea ya-dah-dai-yah Sea ya-dah-dai-yah

Red Rock 06:07
RED ROCK Listen listen Stories told People singing Language old Though you don’t know What it means literally You hear it seems From far away But in this place With your liking You hold it’s trace You wonder meaning As you sit And the story’s Watching, watching you Walk some more Reaching for the door Walking your thoughts up from the track Wishing walk If the land could talk See what you’d bring back Walking seeming always half way ‘long Piecing together places gone Of broken culture, only touching on the surface In another kind of in-between of red rock home You piece together as you can, Bringing meaning to where you stand Looking, looking, for a telling a face Out of rock emerging Watching, watching you Walk some more Reaching for the door Walking your thoughts up from the track Seek to see Signs of the unseen You cup your hand around your call You call your own, it echoes on Watching I Walk some more Reaching for the door Walking your thoughts up from the track Seek to see Signs of the unseen See if you find a way home Wishing walk, if the land could talk You cup your hand around your call You call your own, it echoes on You cup your hand around your call You call your own it calls you on Listen, listen, for a people’s song Echo ages long Hearing you Looking, looking, for a telling face Out of rock emerging Watching, watching you

Gaze 06:24
GAZE Will a softening Of your need to know There you hold it Touching with your gaze On the worlds within Where dreams may re-begin to take over Touching with your gaze On an opening ‘Cross the seas you’ve flown Stormy seas you’ve known To your haven place ‘till a trust has regrown I want to dive within With the subtle light Of a candle’s stream That you’re letting enter as it will On the journey’s been Where you took the time To be on your own Healing ‘cause your letting Your body do it’s thing in its knowing ‘Cross the seas you’ve flown To your haven place For so long it’s been Time for that love to be shown Holding yourself how you want to be held Bringing me there bold with a peace ‘cause I offer to soul Both our knowing shows How the feeling grows Healing ‘cause you’re letting Your body do its thing in its knowing

Glimpses 05:41
GLIMPSES Seeking you For our touch in conversation And how we raise the view On a trail of interluding With the whispering of wind It’s a breath between my trying Seeking for the words, vessels of the way Opening Opening Connection To a valley of reception Where the birds in force are singing, singing for the day Over me, High over me Sailing trees Then to my level one comes swooping And in it’s presence be letting words accompany In the knowing of creation Find a vessel finding you And on the peak of waves of feeling Catch a glimpse of the way through To a valley held within Letting go now to begin and sing the sun On the edge of this beginning Working with the words living, living by a love Start again, start again Seeking you For our dance into abundance In the sharing of all that, all we’re dreaming of Knowing its about connection To a place I belong to In the dark before the dawning Hear a bird unveiling view With it’s hold of mystery In the language of the free who sing the sun It’s a breath between my trying Want a softening to being all we’re speaking of We’re all working on a way now To be living from a love In the knowing of creation Find a vessel to break through On the peak of waves of feeling Catch a glimpse of the way through To a beauty held within Letting go now to begin And sing the sun On the edge of this beginning Want a breaking through, living Breaking through, living Breaking through in living, living by a love

HOLDING RIVERS Holding onto your hoping Holding, while rivers are dreaming Walking, a stream is spoken From your mouth to the ocean Holding passages open Gather momentum A love’s in there Hold it To you, to you And I know that’ll you have to help it Get there, get there To the place where the understanding Knows you, holds you There I know that you’ll want to let Go free, go free Hoping turn to a sureness To give what you got at the fire’s source Breathing, dancing is woken Up from feet of devotion Holding passages open Gather momentum, with all who’s there Hold it To you, to you And I know that you’ll have to help it Get there, get there To the place where the understanding Knows you, holds you There I know that you’ll want to let Go free, go free I hold as you enter To this river’s nature Yours gathers my own To something that’s greater Fire there for our receiving Fire there for our offering Fire there in what is old I and I in the hold

Carry Me 06:49
CARRY ME Carry me tomorrow I will run With the wind I call under my wing Telling me it has already begun Circling around here where we sing Ya-da-ya-da-da-di-ai-ya Ya-da-ya-da-da-dai Ya-da-ya-da-da-di-ai-ya Ya-da-ya-da-da-dai Force of love, bring back into the one What we want and what is destiny And there I have freedom And there I can run There I, hold you in the one heart Carry you with me to the sun Carry me from the fire to which we have come Your sitting here breathing under my wing Where’s it to, that you will cease your run? Says the wind to me, rustling through the trees Carry me, dear friend, as I will you On flights of thought reaching back to a time When we sang for our dreams to come true And to be with our old future kind And there I have freedom And there I can run There I, hold you in the one heart Carry you with me to the sun Then in the morning, just a residue of a dream Sip on it’s memory of when we were one Now when you’re singing, you are brining me back home Instil a courage with which to run Ya-da-ya-da-da-di-ai-ya Ya-da-ya-da-da-day Ya-da-ya-da-da-di-ai-ya Ya-da-ya-da-da-day And there I have freedom And there I can run There I, hold you in the one heart Carry you with me to the sun Hey, hey, we go back Hey, hey, we go back Hey, hey, we go back, we go way back Ya-da-ya-da-da-di-ai-ya Ya-da-ya-da-da-day Ya-da-ya-da-da-di-ai-ya Ya-da-ya-da-da-day And there I have freedom And there I can run There I, hold you in the one heart Carry you with me to the sun

A MAP OF A KIND Kookaburras calling I’m restless before The breaking of dawn I’m seeking a piece But losing the whole Can they sing it untorn? Seeing it here What you’ve seen there It’s everywhere Broken in mind A map of a kind To have faith in your care I leave it at your door I leave it at your door I leave it at your door When I go Leave it at your door Bring your piece to it once more I leave it a your door When I leave I search for a name The way of a name The bridge of a name A symbol or part A mark of the heart To get me over To where our hopes in echo Across these lives we choose Complete a song when silence falls I leave it at your door I leave it at your door I leave it at your door When I go Leave at your door Bring your peace to it once more I leave it a your door When I leave Familiar pulse Drawing us close Pulling us through Points of the times Arriving my mind At a peace within you I leave it at your door I leave it at your door I leave it at your door When I go Leave at your door Bring your piece to it once more I leave it a your door When I leave Always, always, always when you leave Something, something, something you can’t leave Coming back home One more journey Ending back here For what you impart Here where we start I soften my ear Like all folk the same Using a name For walking the tracks Seeking to find A love of a kind To work through the cracks

Wonder 05:42
WONDER Hold me there Bridging where In the dim of the night Thoughts may dawn Open wide, come outside Gone on a wandering to find wonder again ‘Cause it wandered away from me, kinda hide and seek I’m asking a question I have not yet realised I stand on a bridge that is over a stream With a hold of the moon Mirrored place What’s my face I go walking to be out of range Of the drone, silent drone Gone on a wandering to find wonder again ‘Cause it wandered away from me and my strategies I’m asking a question to heighten perception I stand on a bridge that is over a moon surfacing on a stream This bridge of reflection I walk to at night Gives thought to retraction Of wonder of from sight On this bridge of reflection Over knowledge of flow That’s holding a beauty high I’m singing to know What I already know What we already know Bridging us there Bridging us there Then after the question Leave space for the answer I stand on a bridge that we use on our way In the light of the day On this bridge of reflection Over a body of flow That’s holding a beauty high I’m singing to know What I already know What we already know Bridging us there Holding us there Hold me there Bridging where I go walking to be out of range Of the drone Silent drone Gone on a wandering to find where I am again ‘Cause I wandered away from here ‘till my place is clear
