"Music" lyrics

Music

Before you
My home was in the wind and surf
The birds and rain
Voices of the northern lights

Then you came
I joined you beyond the aeons
As you blew
Your cave bear bone
And began to hum

Eradicate
The torment of a heavy heart
Emancipate the deaf
Sing the graceful third part

Then orchestrate
An air for only you to sing
Caress it deep
It's always there
To unlock the stars
To enter

Music
Fanning the flames of a mystery
Deepening the listening
Losing
Yourself
To the endless symphony
Of now

You want to dream?
Want a tale in major scale?
Wish to leave the hollow
To dance with Pan?

Can you hear
The brave drum from the moors?
Follow the beat
And leave the noise behind
If we be lovers

Performance starts
Come join the gathering
And you will leave
With a wildflower aftertaste

Become the kind
Who still laughs at butterflies
Give me a home
Inside you until the final thank you
And a good night

Music
Fanning the flames of a mystery
Deepening the listening
Losing
Yourself
To the endless symphony
Of now

Human
Singing the tale of another man
Have you ever heard
Music?
It is coming
Coming, coming your way
The very first song

In here
I am the silence of sound
Curing the common show
For the steady song

There
I'll greet the greedy crowd
But will never
Never ever sing to them

Tick-tock
Time stops
Follow me into the fog
To the hilltop
Follow the call sky-clad
Evoke the Hum
Allure the sirens
All it took was
Time and silence

Music
Fanning the flames of a mystery
Deepening the listening
Losing
Yourself
To the endless symphony
Of now

Music
Fanning the flames of a mystery
Deepening the listening
Losing
Yourself
To the endless symphony
Of now

Human
Singing the tale of another man
Have you ever heard
Music?
It is coming
Coming, coming your way
The very first song
