Odyssey Lyrics
ALL WILL BE WELL (Tozer)You say the rain has come the sun has disappeared Oh will it shine again But as the seasons turn the pages of the year So time will ease the pain
And the earth will turn And the star that fell Shone so bright that the light remained to shine again All will be well
So you sent your sons to face the shadows of the night And gave them guns for play And searched for peace there on the blackened plains of war Where not a living thing remained
And the days they turned to years And time wove her spell Till morning broke and returned anew shining through All will be well
Time heals all will be well
And now that time has shown a lesson to be learned Know your laughter by your pain Now with the means to kill the whole world in our hands Don't make the same mistake again
While the earth still turns Learn the lesson well And keep the flame of our spirit bright through the night All will be well
And the earth will turn And the star that fell Shone so bright that the light remained to shine again All will be well
So you sent your sons to face the shadows of the night And gave them guns for play And searched for peace there on the blackened plains of war Where not a living thing remained
And the days they turned to years And time wove her spell Till morning broke and returned anew shining through All will be well
Time heals all will be well
And now that time has shown a lesson to be learned Know your laughter by your pain Now with the means to kill the whole world in our hands Don't make the same mistake again
While the earth still turns Learn the lesson well And keep the flame of our spirit bright through the night All will be well
WINGS OF SONG (Tozer)It came to me while I was walkingIn the first light of a new born dayFor good or bad we are only what we makeOf ourselves on the way
It came to me while we were talkingSomething you said made it clearYou may be wrong or you may just be rightBut the memory will still be here
All the dreams that I had all the things you are sayingI give them to you in the songs I am playingGive me the wings of song and I'll fly for youIf it be right or wrong I'll try for you
It came to me while I was drivingOn a lonely road under clear skiesWe live alone but together we can flyLove's the music in our eyes
It came to me while I was sleepingWhen the early sunshine filtered throughWhile music plays there'll be peace and harmonyCan I offer some to you
Every song that I heard every word that was spokenThe dreams that came true and the ones that were brokenGive me the wings of song and I'll fly for youIf it be right or wrong I'll try for youFinding the words I long for I'll cry for youGive me the wings of song and I'll fly for you
It came to me while we were talkingSomething you said made it clearYou may be wrong or you may just be rightBut the memory will still be here
All the dreams that I had all the things you are sayingI give them to you in the songs I am playingGive me the wings of song and I'll fly for youIf it be right or wrong I'll try for you
It came to me while I was drivingOn a lonely road under clear skiesWe live alone but together we can flyLove's the music in our eyes
It came to me while I was sleepingWhen the early sunshine filtered throughWhile music plays there'll be peace and harmonyCan I offer some to you
Every song that I heard every word that was spokenThe dreams that came true and the ones that were brokenGive me the wings of song and I'll fly for youIf it be right or wrong I'll try for youFinding the words I long for I'll cry for youGive me the wings of song and I'll fly for you
HIGH FLYER (Tozer)High flyer fly on for when your work is doneThings that you dreamed of will live on will live foreverAnd if it don't work out don't let it bring you downCos any time you need me I'll be round yes I'll be there
You have to be strong to live with a dreamerRacing along on the crest of a waveThe way will be hard and the road may be steeperWe'll be there at the end of the day
Dreamer spread your wings oh let your heart singYou know you can do anything anything you want toAnd when your race is run when it's all been doneI'll be beside you in the sun yes I'll be thereChorus
Walk your tightrope walk your tightrope and run your raceAnd I'll be with you cos there's no one no one no one in this worldCan take your placeHigh flyer fly on High flyer fly onHigh flyer fly on fly on Fly on
You have to be strong to live with a dreamerRacing along on the crest of a waveThe way will be hard and the road may be steeperWe'll be there at the end of the day
Dreamer spread your wings oh let your heart singYou know you can do anything anything you want toAnd when your race is run when it's all been doneI'll be beside you in the sun yes I'll be thereChorus
Walk your tightrope walk your tightrope and run your raceAnd I'll be with you cos there's no one no one no one in this worldCan take your placeHigh flyer fly on High flyer fly onHigh flyer fly on fly on Fly on
COUNT THE COST (T0zer)Footloose and fancy free being where you want to beNo one's to notice if you go or you stayNothing you can't do all the time in the world is yoursBut there's times you feel there;a a price that you pay
Those quiet nights alone when you write your love songsBut do you know who you're writing them forEven when you've done it right everything is niceEvery kind of freedom has its priceFor everything in life that's gained something else is lostJust be sure you count the cost, count the cost
So you settle down get your feet back on the groundWhen you find somebody who can brighten your waySo you build your dreams turn your life around it seemsEven in good times there's a price to pay
So now you're much too busy to write your love songsEven though you've someone to write them forChorus
Who can justify all the ones who had to dieIn the name of freedom and the bright new dayTill at last they find they left the best behindThe promised paradise is further away
So we will just continue to sing our love songsAnd hope there's someone to sing them forChorus
Those quiet nights alone when you write your love songsBut do you know who you're writing them forEven when you've done it right everything is niceEvery kind of freedom has its priceFor everything in life that's gained something else is lostJust be sure you count the cost, count the cost

TIME WAS (Tozer)The changing of the season took me by surpriseDid anybody catch it passing byWhen tomorrow turned to yesterday I must have closed my eyesWhen did time take wings and learn to flyCan anybody tell me what happened to the yearSomeone hit fast forward and it’s spinning out of gearThe sound’s distorted and the memories aren’t quite clearLook out for Armageddon it must be nearly here
Looking back on yesterday and the ones we left behindA time we thought the world would never endIn the circle of the universe and the turning wheel of timeCould it be we’ll pass that way againAnd looking at the lives we lived they seem so far awayAnd how we got to now is hard to sayBut the total of our memories is what we are todayThe memories are forever though time has passed our way
Time was, time is now, Time will be againLet the future recall the past, and the memories feel like friends
As we’re coming closer to the winter of our yearsAnd the future’s getting clearer than the pastAnd the laughter we remember is louder than the tearsAnd every day is shorter than the lastThen it’s time to take it easy the race is almost runAnd now we’ve come full circle back to where it all begunWill we see the changes after everything we’ve doneAnd who got there before us and how the race was won
Time was, time is now, time will be againLet the future recall the past, and the memories feel like friends
We’re in the race to ArmageddonWho won the race to Armageddon
Looking back on yesterday and the ones we left behindA time we thought the world would never endIn the circle of the universe and the turning wheel of timeCould it be we’ll pass that way againAnd looking at the lives we lived they seem so far awayAnd how we got to now is hard to sayBut the total of our memories is what we are todayThe memories are forever though time has passed our way
Time was, time is now, Time will be againLet the future recall the past, and the memories feel like friends
As we’re coming closer to the winter of our yearsAnd the future’s getting clearer than the pastAnd the laughter we remember is louder than the tearsAnd every day is shorter than the lastThen it’s time to take it easy the race is almost runAnd now we’ve come full circle back to where it all begunWill we see the changes after everything we’ve doneAnd who got there before us and how the race was won
Time was, time is now, time will be againLet the future recall the past, and the memories feel like friends
We’re in the race to ArmageddonWho won the race to Armageddon
I GOT THROUGH TO YOU (Atkinson)Feeling the feeling that I have for youWatching the black night roll awayThe birds are singing and the sky is blueAnd I've been thinking of the dayI got through to you
Saying goodbye to insecurityPicking myself up off the floorLaughing at all my uncertaintyI know now what I'm living forCos I believe in me
When the early morning sun begins to shineAnd the whole world is at peaceThere's a feeling that the earth is mineAnd the war inside has ceased
Taking note of how you feel insideI know cos I've been there tooNow things have changed there is no need to hideThe feeling that I have for youCos you got through to me
Feeling the feeling that I have for youWatching the black night roll awayThe birds are singing and the sky is blueAnd I've been thinking of the dayI got through to you
Saying goodbye to insecurityPicking myself up off the floorLaughing at all my uncertaintyI know now what I'm living forCos I believe in me
When the early morning sun begins to shineAnd the whole world is at peaceThere's a feeling that the earth is mineAnd the war inside has ceased
Taking note of how you feel insideI know cos I've been there tooNow things have changed there is no need to hideThe feeling that I have for youCos you got through to me
Feeling the feeling that I have for youWatching the black night roll awayThe birds are singing and the sky is blueAnd I've been thinking of the dayI got through to you
MILITARY PLAN (Tozer)You've seen the pain and you've seen the tears and you know it can't be rightStill all you hear is the sound of feet marching to the fightYou think you can make a plan (you can blow it all away)Be a hero maybe be a man (dying for judgement day)
A thousand years of history what's it all been forYou still introduce the military plan to put an end to warOh you can't ease the pain (you're a peace loving man)With nothing to lose what's to gain (with a military plan)
So you join in the ranks of the uniformed soldiersBrave is the man with a gun in his handThe blood of our sons will run in the riversAnd we'll all drink a toast to the military plan
You don't have to look beyond the hills to see them wield their swordsBrother and sister in a war of wills and weapons in their wordsOh here we go again (if you teach your sons to kill)Down the track like a runaway train (you can bet your life they will)
And they join in the ranks of the uniformed soldiersBrave is the man with a gun in his handThe blood of our sons will run in the riversAnd we'll all drink a toast to the military plan
Maybe one day we can find a way to lay the guns to restAnd sing a song for the victory that won't destroy the bestWe can't solve it all (down the barrel of a gun)Still we all heed the call (to the war that can't be won)
And we hide in the ranks of the uniformed soldiersBrave is the man with a gun in his handThe blood of our sons will run in the riversAnd we'll all drink a toast to the military planThe blood of our sons will run in the riversAnd we'll all give a cheer for the military plan
