Free of Heart

Is it the dust I'm kickin up with my bare feet?
Or the drifts of dreams that follow my footsteps?
I think my best from up a tree
No roof to trap my thoughts, just leaves
Wind in my hair, riding fast
Balloon release, free of heart
Free of fear as I walk in the dark
Are you still a child?
I don't know what you mean
Are you still a child?
I still have my dreams
I still have my dreams
Lonely singing on a swing
I have ideas, why don't they listen?
My mind is vast, why don't they care?
Talking stick, as though I'm not there.
Wind in my hair, riding fast
Balloon release, free of heart
Free of fear as I walk in the dark
Are you still a child?
I don't know what you mean
Are you still a child?
I still have my dreams
I still have my dreams
Wind in my hair, riding fast
Balloon release, free of heart

Astro

34 million miles, many minutes of light
Works the wistful mind of a child
As he embarks upon his nightly flight
He's travelling in style
Fly on Astro Fly
(and when you fly your feet won't touch the ground)
Fly on Astro Fly
(and when you fly your breath won't make a sound)
Fly on Astro Fly
(and when you fly your feet won't touch the ground)
Turning away his eyes from Mars magnified
Pulls back to Earth again, he sighs
Not from here, he's a pioneer
Finds his place in the new frontier
Fly on Astro Fly
(and when you fly your feet won't touch the ground)
Fly on Astro Fly
(and when you fly your breath won't make a sound)
Fly on Astro Fly
(and when you fly your feet won't touch the ground)
Fly on Astro fly
Fly on Astro Fly

What I Want

You, you turned around and whispered something to me
You said "I'm not the same" as what you used to be
But I know that you are what I want
Yes I know that you are what I want
The faces on the line are turning slowly
And no-one will have time when the wind blows softly
And I know that you are what I want
Yes I know that you are what I want
You turned to me again
A small tear in your eye
I took your hand and we walked under the sky
You, you turned around and whispered something to me
You said we're not the same as what we used to be
But I know that you are what I want
Yes I know that you are what I want
We found another time
Our lips tasted of wine
There's a freckle in my mind and it won't die
We’re turning
And yearning
We're returning
You, you turned around and whispered something to me
You said you’re not the same as what you used to be
But I know that you are what I want
Yes I know that you are what I want

No Friend of Mine
03:03

In the dark I find my way
It lines the day, it lines the day
In the dark I find my way
Something shines through the grey, it shines through the grey
I know time is no friend of mine
No conversation will see us intertwine
I know time is no friend of mine
No conversation will see us intertwine
In the sand I find my heart
The blinds depart, the blinds depart
In the sand I find my heart
Something makes a start, like Joan of Arc
I know time is no friend of mine
No conversation will see us intertwine
I know time is no friend of mine
No conversation will see us intertwine
You may be all I need
You may be all I need
You may be all I need
You may be all I need
I know time is no friend of mine
No conversation will see us intertwine
I know time is no friend of mine
No conversation will see us intertwine

Glimmer Girl

Here she comes, pink helmet on
Spots and stripes, speckled leggings long
Pirouettes, to the call of her own song
Inhibitions gone
Here she waits, tuckshop lines, red uniform
Fractured smile hides unfallen tears forlorn
Promised gift of self expression born
Only to conform
She's a glimmer girl
Glimmering girl
Glimmer girl
Here she sits, piling papers, silent screen
Paving paths, destinations never been
Sudden vision of a child so keen
Severed hopes redeemed
And she tries to find
Her place and space in time
And she tries to reconcile
The child inside
Here she stands, shimmering, bathed in gold
Fierce eyes, mirrows, windows, vivid soul
Silent gallery watching wings unfold
Assurance taken hold
She's a glimmer girl
Glimmering girl
Glimmer girl

Cartwheel and Climb

We had our fun
Not hurting no-one
Higher than high
On life
Like you always said
There's a happy for you
And a happy that's just for me too
And we all need to get there, soon
Stars fill my mind
Cartwheel and climb
Smiles from a child
Ring of joy
And we all need to get there, soon
Crossing space and time
Happiness transcends
Voices on the wind
In the sun the flowers grow
Making good of the plan
Letting go of your hand
Was the hardest thing
I'll ever do
Crossing space and time
Happiness transcends
(Your) voice is on the wind
In the sun the flowers grow
Like you always said
There's a happy for you
And a happy that's just for me too
And like the seasons remember
Spring will arrive in September, soon
