Peacebird

From Primal Voice CD


Thinking.

I've been thinking.

I'll let the sunlight shine away

All the darkness in my way.


Walking

I've been walking

Down many empty streets alone.

Trying to find out 

Where I belong.


Let the peacebird fly

Peace untie your wings.

Love bird will sing.


Seeing

I've been perceiving

chaos forging in the streets

People rambling 

to different beats.


Wondering

I've been wondering

Far too long we've lived this way

I've been wondering

when I'd see the day


When the peacebird fly.

Peace untie your wings.

Love bird will sing

Peacebird

It's time to fly.

Giving Heart

From Primal Voice CD


​Everyone around you clearly sees

How you play your part

It's something that you have got, you've got

The gift of a giving heart

The gift for forgiving hearts.


If anybody asked me I would say

You had it from the start. (I see you)

I'll tell you what you have got, you've got.

The gift of a giving heart. (I see you)

The gift for forgiving hearts.


Ooo I will care

Let's take the time to discover.

Ooo I'm aware

We can begin to uncover

Ooo We can believe in each other.


Everyone around you clearly sees 

You dazzle with your smarts. (I see you)

Captivating all you see

With your gift of a giving heart.

(I see you)

Forgiving hearts.


If you asked me I would say

You're looking for a counterpart.

(I see you)

Hypnotizing all you see

With a gift of a giving heart.

(I see right in you)

Gift for forgiving hearts.


Ooo I will care 

Let's take the time to discover.

Ooo I'm aware

We can begin to discover...

In the Mind

From Primal Voice CD


In the morning rain

I can choose again

Nothing in the world

remains the same.

I got air to breathe 

and I'm always free

To choose what I want to see.

Oh oh I know oh


Even sunshine 

I can find

Shadows of the world 

remain in time.

No one seems to care

but it's in the air.

We choose to be unaware. 

Oh oh I know

All in the mind


Everyday I feel

that there is some real

life to live

It's always been this way

today and everyday

Some love to give

Live love never hide

Could it be insanity


As I move ahead

and I'm looking back

Am I ready to jump the track

No one seems to care

but it's in the air

Serenity's every where.

Oh oh I know

​All in the mind


(chorus)

I won't deprive life

gonna thrive

I'm gonna deny my ego pride

gonna rely on my lighter side

live love never hide

could it be

sweet sanity

On Earth 

From Primal Voice CD


We have seen that burning southern cross.

In the preacher's hand lies faith at any cost.

Inside the mind there is a choice

Between what is real and what is

seemingly illusory about


Truth. Peace on earth.

Let's talk about Love, babe.

Peace on earth.

I want to talk about true love

Peace on Earth.


We create our own realities.

Living in a world with false dualities.

What we believe will color what we see.

We have the power to begin a new 

and choose again the


Truth. Peace on Earth.

Let's talk about love, babe.

Peace on earth.

I want to talk about true love.

Peace on Earth.


Chasing clouds of disillusionment.

Nothing's quite as good and lacks a jubilance.

Fear is the miscreation of the mind.

We can begin to choose another way.

It starts today with


Truth. Peace on Earth.

Let's talk about love, babe.
Peace on earth.
I want to talk about true love.
Peace on Earth.
