1. THE ASTRAL PROJECT (CLASS A)

Shooting star in the night sky, burning fire and light
You can reach me tomorrow, you can hold me tonight

Won't you let yourself go, release your heart and your soul
Forget your grief and your woe and take a trip to the stars, let's go

Through the pillars of time you can fly to me
Through the realms of illusion and beyond destiny
Won't you hold me tonight, you know the feeling is right
We could be as high as a kite, let's take a trip to the stars, let's go

Time to reach for the sky, it's time to say goodbye
It's time to open your wings 'cause now's the time to fly
Oh what a feeling it is to drift alone with the stars
To feel the warmth of the Moon, to hear the calling of Mars
Tonight forever begins within the temples of space
A better future is rising for the human race
The interplanetary dream unfolds before our eyes
An astrological step into tomorrow skies
So won't you set the controls now for this alien light
You can reach me tomorrow, you can hold me tonight
You can hold me tonight
Won't you hold me tonight...

Fly into the psychedelic glow
Welcome to my futuristic show
Far beyond the universe we know
Chasing dreams, it's to the Sun we go

Yeah, oh yeah

Fly into the psychedelic glow
Welcome to my futuristic show
Far beyond the universe we know
Chasing dreams, it's to the Sun we go

Yeah, oh yeah


2. MAGIC CARPET

Kaleidoscope of color from the fountain jubilee
Atomic rays of sadness shine beyond the silver tree
The distant sound of chaos brings the warriors to be
A ride upon the carpet and it takes me to my fantasy

Hold on tight
Baby, hold on tight
Magic carpet ride

The butterfly superior of cosmic dust and sand
Sings the hymn of mystery and shadows evil land
Ashes rise to fill my eyes as darkness takes my hand
Upon the carpet plays the tune of Mother Nature's band

Hold on tight
Baby, hold on tight
Magic carpet ride

A mountain starts to crumble as we race the giant fly
Our sunrise falls to pieces as the priest decides to lie
A cavalcade funeral is marching across the sea
To nest the velvet eagle where the angels' hearts will bleed

Baby, hold on tight
Come on, hold on tight
Magic carpet ride
Come on, take a ride with me upon the magic carpet


3. SARUMAN'S WISH

Much confusion in the wake of suffering
Awaiting comfort that only silence can bring
Smoky ruins fill the greying skies
Tears of sorrow as our nation dies

Thoughts of sadness fill my haunted dreams
Shrieks of madness, life is ending it seems
Seeking inspiration from the voice that calls my name
Finding wisdom in the depths beyond our shame

Behind the eyes of misery a hope still lingers on
But yet I fear my final prayer goes down with the dying sun
The dying sun

There's not a tear of sympathy can take back what's been done
As dreams of all eternity go down with the dying sun
The dying sun

Your voice tells me I'm not dreaming
My mind is gone, inside I'm screaming
All I had has died in shadows
Now I lie where no one knows

Oh yeah, come on

5. AQUATIC FANATIC

Riding a crystal shell into the deepest sky
Heading into the abyss, watching the watcher's eye
Drowning in memories, falling eternally
Lord of Aquarium, my tidal fantasy

In search for mystery, we find insanity
The lady of the sea reaches her hand to me

Drifting through the corals of waters unknown in a cosmic submarine
It's so serene
Living in the colors of the ocean, taste the blue and smell the green
You know what I mean

Dragging me under leagues
Exploring hidden seas
Saying I'm sure to please
For I hold the silver keys

Reach the sunken city, hear the silence, see the lights
You know it's right
It must be right

Touch the ancient treasure, feel the pleasure and delight
That's what I like
That's what I like
Alright

Sonic rays are shining through clear water and a rainbow's growing
To the pot of gold that lies beyond this land, the water's flowing
Chase the aqua-dragons way up high to find the sirens dancing
Rise upon the surface of the ocean, see the shores advancing

Let's go


6. LOTHLORIAN

[Instrumental]


7. LAND OF SECRET DREAMS

Take my hand
Through this land
Walk with me
See what I see

Close your eyes
And realize
Taste your dreams
All is not as it seems

Welcome to a land of dreams
Where we search the passage of time
Experience the legends that lived
And feel the passion of the spirits rise

So peaceful here, the angels lend an ear
In the wake of a new day we fly
Descending we reach a new horizon
As we reach to touch the deep red sky
We touch the deep red sky

Descending from a blinding glaze
As darkness looms beyond the frozen haze
As midnight strikes, the wizards rise
Sorcery opposes their demise
They ride

Blackest clouds and darkest skies
Burning stars like fiery eyes
Glowing seas and electric trees
Angelic sounds amidst the breeze

The keeper standing at the gates
For the rise of the evil force he waits
A dragon swirling overhead
He's got a coat of green and eyes of red
Alright


8. ORANGE GOBLIN

I wanna fly you away with me
Into the mystic third eye
We'll reach the gates when the Sun goes down
And never ask ourselves why

'Cos in the hope of discovery
Beneath the mountainous lair
Stretching the bounds of curiosity
We'll find out what's living there
Oh yeah

My head's not fact but it's fiction
And in the back of my mind
There lives a creature of fantasy
The orange goblin we find

And so on the shards of silver light we slide
Into the goblin's domain
To find a world of depravation
Amidst the torture and pain

Oh yeah

Trapped here in the land of confusion
A prisoner to the diamond of night
Cocooned within my shell of creation
That hides me from the master of light
Alright, yeah

The ship of dreams sails into eternity
And sinks into the red lake of fire
A slave unto the goblin, I lay down my sword as the potion starts to take
me up higher


9. STAR SHAPED CLOUD

Perched upon my star shaped cloud
I watch this crazy planet spinning round and around and around and around
Carousel insanity, the mad star of the galaxy
The giant supernova where no reason can be found

Ultra-violet children swim
Inside the sonic radar beam
Towards the static palace where the iron princess dwells

Hallucinations fill the eyes
That look to psychedelic skies
As purple flames will rise from twisted spells

Magnetic horses chase the waves
Through labyrinths of hidden caves
To free the generations lost inside the crimson maze

Insects wander through the night
To end the starry-eyed captain's plight
To take the frozen nation into his eternal days

Corroding towers begin to fall
Into the burning waterfall
That brings this aching planet to its knees

The star shaped cloud begins to sway
Then gently starts to fade away
Until it's lost within tomorrow's breeze
Tomorrow's breeze

Electronic holocaust, the people start to run
The fires burn the ocean and the winds decay the Sun
The ancient druids point the way towards the future's light
Upon salvation's wings we fly into the endless night

Lightning opens up the sky and through the door we fly
The sound of rolling thunder roars as heavens start to cry
Victims of invention, planet Earth lays down its head
Dissolving solar system, now the star shaped cloud is dead
The cloud is dead...
