We ain’t gunna be here forever
And not gunna see everything
As long as your here beside me
I’m not gunna need a thing
In the distance I hear them
Sounding the drums
A battle call is howling
Howling out for us
We’ve walked down this road forever
A dark sky don’t mean a thing
The clouds open up above us
And beam us free from sin
In the distance I hear them
Sounding the drums
A battle call is howling
Howling out for us
So hear we are again, a different place, with a similar story
We wander on the day and settle down when the starlight’s falling
I don’t really know which direction to go to
But I don’t really mind
In the distance I hear them
Sounding the drums
A battle call is howling
Howling out for us
We ain’t gunna be here forever
And not gunna see everything
As long as your here beside me
I’m not gunna need a thing

Like the dove learned to fly away
Like the moon shining all this way down to the earth
Oh what is it worth?
I’m awaiting your guidance
I’m ready for your lead
Please can you tell me who what where and when to be
Don’t think with emotion
Leave the logic out this time
Just Ride your instincts I’ll follow you
(Through the)
Summer sweet melodies
We all sing in harmonies
Stomp our feet to the sound of the beat
I can’t ignore that
Summer sweet melodies
We all sing in harmonies
Stomp our feet to the sound of the beat
I can’t ignore that
Like a tree struggling for light
Spreading out his leaves
And never giving up the fight
Until he finds what he’s been looking for
Like the morning light illuminates the sky
Allowing us once again to use our sight
Open up those eyes and see
Don’t think with emotion
Leave the logic out this time
Just Ride your instincts I’ll follow you
(Through the)
Summer sweet melodies
We all sing in harmonies
Stomp our feet to the sound of the beat
I can’t ignore that
Summer sweet melodies
We all sing in harmonies
Stomp our feet to the sound of the beat
I can’t ignore that
Like the dove learned to fly away
Like the moon shining all this way down to the earth
Oh what is it worth?
I’m awaiting your guidance
I’m ready for your lead
Please can you tell me who what where and when to be
Don’t think with emotion
Leave the logic out this time
Just Ride your instincts I’ll follow you
(Through the)
Summer sweet melodies
We all sing in harmonies
Stomp our feet to the sound of the beat
I can’t ignore that
Summer sweet melodies
We all sing in harmonies
Stomp our feet to the sound of the beat
I can’t ignore that

You only get one chance
To be on this world
Unless someone can show me any differently
And if you only get one chance
What sense would it be
To live a life in shadows and in misery
Your life is what you make of it
The whole worlds there to explore
If I only have one chance I sure as hell won’t blow it
I’m gunna shine my last light so brightly
There’s a man who always wears a frown
When I see him it gets me down
But I can see this all ending happily
When I see you, you make me smile
The weather gets better when your around
That’s what makes me see the world so beautifully
Your life is what you make of it
The whole worlds there to explore
If I only have one chance I sure as hell won’t blow it
I’m gunna shine my last light so brightly
Connect the dots and look around
You gotta dig through the dirt to find the jewel for the crown
Know that each choice affects your destiny
Whatever you love
Whatever comes naturally
Find your gift to build a new reality
Your life is what you make of it
The whole worlds there to explore
If I only have one chance I sure as hell won’t blow it
I’m gunna shine my last light so brightly
Your life is what you make of it
The whole worlds there to explore
If I only have one chance I sure as hell won’t blow it
I’m gunna shine my last light so brightly

Sitting here in Nimbin tree
The stars are glaring for eyes to see
Fill your soul up to to the brim
From a peace you find from within
I know now where I need to be
Brought from the magic in this tree
All of your thoughts and acts of the past will vanish
Come now and be blown away
Chilling here in Nimbin Tree
The hours here they go to sleep
No plans today no where I need to be
I guess I’ll just hang around here
I know now where I need to be
Brought from the magic in this tree
All of your thoughts and acts of the past will vanish
Come now and be blown away
Come now and be blown away
Laying here in Nimbin Tree
It whispers to me the words that I seek
They were already there deep inside my memories
All I had to do was dig real deep
I know now where I need to be
Brought from the magic in this tree
All of your thoughts and acts of the past will vanish
Come now and be blown away
Come now and be blown away
Come now and be blown away

Winds of Change

Early one morning on a day like this,
I was you and you were me
i know it seems so difficult sometimes
i wish it couldn’t be
Just as the winds change
so can we
I want a wave of happiness inside of me
Just as the winds change
so can we
I wanna feel the happiness inside of me
constant shifting vibrations
opens up revalations
your source of inspiration
way beyond expectations
sometimes it feels like when your in mess
theres a barrier in front that you cannot pass
but if you look a bit closer
there’s always a way around
Just as the winds change
so can we
I want a wave of happiness inside of me
Just as the winds change
so can we
I wanna feel the happiness inside of me
constant shifting vibrations
opens up revalations
your source of inspiration
way beyond expectations
we solve nothing by sittuing here dwelling
yet we’ll still waste our time
if i hold my breathe for a second
then i’m sure that I’ll be fine
Just as the winds change
so can we
I want a wave of happiness inside of me
Just as the winds change
so can we
I wanna feel the happiness inside of me
constant shifting vibrations
opens up revalations
your source of inspiration
way beyond expectations
I gather my thoughts in your pressence
It’s your essence
constant shifting vibrations
opens up revalations
your source of inspiration
way beyond expectations
your the source of my inspiration
way beyond expectations
