How is it that joy and miracles always come out of the hardest off times? How is it that illness can cure you? How is it that we are challenged but in the end we learn and grow? How is it that life is such a mystery yet there is undeniably a loving power behind it that makes everything right?
Heart opening from a land, not here. Magical beings who know have to perform miracles better than me. Once I thought I knew something, today I know it is just a small part of the story. The story unfolds one piece at a time, so beautifully put together that it’s impossible not to pause in wonder. A rose with a thousand petals that come together in a perfectly imperfect way to open the path to joy. God’s hand gently placed on the earth to guide us as everything comes to the surface to be cleansed and healed.
Close your eyes, give me your hand, darling
Do you feel my heart beating
Do you understand
Do you feel the same
Am I only dreaming
Is this burning an eternal flame
I believe it’s meant to be, darling
I watch you when you are sleeping
You belong with me
Do you feel the same
Am I only dreaming
Or is this burning an eternal flame
Say my name sun shines through the rain
A whole life so lonely
And then you come and ease the pain
I don’t want to lose this feeling
The world is a truly bizarre place so much more than can even be imagined.
It was an old song,
From “Kiss me, Kiss me, Kiss me” that she sang.
It was an old line,
I kept with me, with me, with me when she rang
You’re such a strange girl,
You’re such a strange, strange girl.
You’re such a strange girl.
It’s all been embraced (?)
Everyone is telling me,
It’s slightly deranged,
Everyone is telling me.
We traded blindness for wisdom
And some lines around the eyes.
But you just act like it was a fact of life
It didn’t come as a surprise.
You’re such a strange girl,
You’re such a strange, strange girl.
You’re such a strange girl.
And no you can’t ever go home.
Everything has changed and the people are gone.
So close your eyes and summon up the song
And you feel your life falling under you like a slide
Like a slide
It was an old song,
I once knew every note and every line.
It was a long night,
When I carried you and you carried me for a time.
You’re such a strange girl,
You’re such a strange, strange girl.
You’re such a strange girl.
It’s all been embraced (?)
Everyone is telling me,
It’s slightly deranged,
Everyone is telling me.
I dreamt of your face
And what the song was telling me
For time has made it all obscene
And trapped us in our dreams
Often times when we aren’t seeking, the right things arrive in our lives even though we don’t think we are ready for them. Who am I to know what I want or need? My only job is to stay open to what comes and stay in the moment.
“Theology, philosophy, metaphysics, and quantum physics are merely ways for God to have his smart people believe in him”

I follow the Moskva
Down to Gorky Park
Listening to the wind of change
An August summer night
Soldiers passing by
Listening to the wind of change
The world is closing in
Did you ever think
That we could be so close, like brothers
The future’s in the air
I can feel it everywhere
Blowing with the wind of change
Take me to the magic of the moment
On a glory night
Where the children of tomorrow dream away (dream away)
In the wind of change
Walking down the street
Distant memories
Are buried in the past forever
I follow the Moskva
Down to Gorky Park
Listening to the wind of change
Take me to the magic of the moment
On a glory night
Where the children of tomorrow share their dreams (share their dreams)
With you and me
Take me to the magic of the moment
On a glory night (the glory night)
Where the children of tomorrow dream away (dream away)
In the wind of change (the wind of change)
The wind of change
Blows straight into the face of time
Like a stormwind that will ring the freedom bell
For peace of mind
Let your balalaika sing
What my guitar wants to say
Take me to the magic of the moment
On a glory night
Where the children of tomorrow share their dreams (share their dreams)
With you and me (with you and me)
Take me to the magic of the moment
On a glory night
Where the children of tomorrow dream away (dream away)
In the wind of change (in the wind of change)
