1. THE DAY BEGINS

Cold-hearted orb that rules the night,
Removes the colours from our sight
Red is grey and yellow white,
But we decide which is right
And which is an illusion ?

Pinprick holes in a colourless sky,
Let insipid figures of light pass by
The mighty light of ten thousand suns,
Challenges infinity and is soon gone

Nighttime, to some, a brief interlude,
To others, the fear of solitude
Brave Helios wake up your steeds,
Bring the warmth the countryside needs


2. DAWN : DAWN IS A FEELING

Dawn is a feeling
A beautiful ceiling
The smell of grass
Just makes you pass
Into a dream

[Chorus]
You're here today
No future fears
This day will last
A thousand years
If you want it to

You look around you
Things they astound you
So breathe in deep
You're not asleep
Open your mind

[Chorus]

Do you understand
That all over this land
There's a feeling
In minds far and near
Things are becoming clear
With a meaning

Now that you're knowing
Pleasure starts flowing
It's true life flies
Faster than eyes
Could ever see

[Chorus]


3. THE MORNING : ANOTHER MORNING

Balloons flying
Children sighing
What a day to go kite flying
Breezy school
Away from school
Cowboys fighting out a duel

[Chorus]
Time seems to stand quite still
In a child's world it always will

Fishes biting
So exciting
Lunchtime sounds so inviting
At the bill
He gets a thrill
Sitting, watching Bobby Quill

[Chorus]

Yesterday's dreams
Are tomorrow's sighs
Watch children playing
They seem so wise

Mary Green
Today's a queen
One thousand dollies are her dream
In cotton frocks
And golden locks
Her palace is an orange box

[Chorus]


4. LUNCH BREAK : PEAK HOUR

I see it all through my window it seems,
Never failing, like millions of bees
All life is run, no time to be won,
Only to do what can be done

[Chorus]
Peak hour (x3)

Minds are subject to what should be done
Problem solved, time cannot be won
One hour a day, one hour a night,
Sees crowds of people
Home in full flight

[Chorus]

It makes me want to run out
And tell them, they've got time
Take a step back out and look in,
I've found out, I've got time

Minds are subject to what should be done,
Problem solved, time cannot be won
One hour a day, one hour a night,
Sees crowds of people
Home in full flight

[Chorus]


5. THE AFTERNOON : FOREVER AFTERNOON

[Chorus 1]
Tuesday, afternoon,
I'm just beginning to see,
Now I'm on my way,
It doesn't matter to me,
Chasing the clouds away

[Chorus 2]
Something, calls to me,
The trees are drawing me near,
I've got to find out why
Those gentle voices I hear
Explain it all with a sigh

I'm looking at myself, reflections of my mind,
It's just the kind of day to leave myself behind,
So gently swaying thru the fairy-land of love,
If you'll just come with me and see the beauty of

Tuesday afternoon (x2)

[Chorus 1]

[Chorus 2]

Evening has come to pass
The time of day doesn't last
Evening has earned its place today
I'm tired of working away

Working, living it brings
Only way to have those things
Toiling has bought too many tears
Turn round all those past years

Evening time to get away (x3)
Till next day

[Chorus 3] (x2)
Live all you people
You can see where you're at
It doesn't really hurt you
So that can't be bad

Evening time to get away (x2)


6. EVENING : THE SUNSET : TWILIGHT TIME

When the sun goes down,
And the clouds all frown,
Night has begun for the sunset

See it with your eyes
Earth re-energized
By the sun's rays every day
Take a look out there,
Planets everywhere

When the sun goes down,
And the clouds all frown,
Night has begun for the sunset

Shadows on the ground
Never make a sound,
Fading away in the sunset
Night has now become
Day for everyone

I can see it all
From this great height
I can feel the sun
Slipping out of sight
And the world still goes on
Through the night

Twilight time, to dream awhile
In veils of deepening blue
As fantasy strides over colorful skies
Of form disappearing from view

[Chorus]
In twilight time, dream with me awhile

A nightingale plays a dark mellow phrase
Of notes that are rich and so true
An aerial display by the firefly brigade
Dancing to tunes no one knew

[Chorus] (x2)

Building castles in the air
Whistling to the wind
As nature bows down her head
See what tomorrow brings

Twilight time, dream with me awhile

Bats take to wing, like puppets on string
Prancing through cool evening air
In a sightless glide, no reason to hide
Away from the sun's blinding stare

[Chorus] (x2)


7. THE NIGHT : NIGHTS IN WHITE SATIN : LATE LAMENT

Nights in white satin
Never reaching the end
Letters I've written
Never meaning to send
Beauty I've always missed
With these eyes before
Just what the truth is
I can't say any more

[Chorus]
'Cause I love you
Yes I love you
Oh how I love you

Gazing at people, some hand in hand
Just what I'm going through they can't understand
Some try to tell me thoughts they cannot defend
Just what you want to be you will be in the end

And I love you
Yes I love you
Oh how I love you
Oh how I love you

Nights in white satin
Never reaching the end
Letters I've written
Never meaning to send
Beauty I've always missed
With these eyes before
Just what the truth is
I can't say any more

[Chorus]

Oh how I love you

[Chorus]

Oh how I love you

Breathe deep the gathering gloom,
Watch lights fade from every room
Bedsitter people look back and lament,
Another day's useless energy spent
Impassioned lovers wrestle as one,
Lonely man cries for love and has none
New mother picks up and suckles her son,
Senior citizens wish they were young.
Cold hearted orb that rules the night,
Removes the colours from our sight
Red is grey and yellow white
But we decide which is right
And which is an illusion ?
