1. Dreams of Ulaan

Dreams of Ulaan, so gleaming and so majestic, when ruler Khan had conquered half of the rest,
he not there for he rode in far off lands.
Travelling in time in space all through the night gently,
An eastern rhyme that I could peer into safely (Did they not see me from the other side?)

Grey is it for lost splendour? Grey it is today.

So fearful then in its display of all its might, so peaceful now for theirs is now another fight

2. We'll keep on flying

Oh, yes, we'll keep on flying ,though we might do the sky in.

Give back what you've taken away from her. She needs all the goodness she can get now.
Give back what you take away.

3. Mary Jones

Mary sits there paralyzed ,same thing going round her mind all day.
Thinking how to solve her dear old mother's problems, she's too weak to stay
at her home all on her own, her thieving son has disappeared again.
Mary's head is full despite the fact she's had her fill this year, so ill she was.

Conscience calling, ”Take all on board! Take all on board!”
Conscience calling, ”Take all....”
Where are they? Where were they? All alone, all alone.
Doctor called ,”Mary Jones’ family.. family!”
We ,her friends, are Mary's family.. family.
Mary wants a new one from the store, she needs more.

4. Over and out

The first of our 2 day war the bombs, the shards of porcelain flew up.
Attack upon attack kept coming back, and so the tension just blew up, screwed up.

The day after it became cold war, though still with smoke from out my door.
Today I see you standing there forlorn, defenceless like Little Girl Torn; first you resist and then give in.
Peace and love between us once again- let's hope it won't come to an end.

5. Signs of Change

As I open a window to air the room I look out and am taken back 30 years to autumns of England
though the ground lay half bare for the nigh on sodden display has made me much younger.
Ground of Madrid, ground of the Central Plateau, usually so parched, it's thirst not yet quenched.

Sky a threatening overcast instead of its usual blazing blue,it downcasts Mary of the Mercies
but uplifts me, yet we both are so grateful for the rain.

Weeks later, strong winds bluster, rattling our windows, and I think of the London tornado
tearing off walls and rooftops. Signs of...?

You can rule over people, but you can't rule over nature, can you?
Perhaps we should leave the windows closed.

6. What we know

What we've been told ain't what we've seen, each his own version of what has been.
Many minds tricked believing lies, at best distortions, truth they defy.
The lesson here ain't the same there, just half the story is history.
Each leaving his own image clean, dirty the other, comes naturally.

Now they play games with science too, theories for powers never are true.
Bald faced, protecting interests, prove me wrong someone-you'll find the rest.

7. New Groove

So much uncertainty hanging in the balance; same for both you and me. Look for a new chance.

Find a way, any way out of where we now stand. Lift the weight, jump the fence, sail the sea, sight land.

Itchy feet wanna move, find a new groove to prove to yourself that you can be strong woman, man.

8. Mixed Emotions

I don't know what to think ,what to feel, what to say, don't know which way to turn,
not even which way to sway.
I'm full of mixed emotions, up and down, I'm both ways.
Yet this now is so normal ,the bread of every day.
So contented, frustrated, I'm so happy and sad, but I know after this song I won't feel quite so bad.

Things can't be any other way, I know.

When something´ s going right, then there´ s something else going wrong,
If I'm just feeling good then I know that it won´ t last long, not just in my small world,
but in everything that's around, always the same old song, yes, it's always the same old sound.
Gotta take time to chill and do everything that I can, never beyond my limits, after all, I'm just a man.

9. Questions

Has the second half just begun? Is there anything I've done?
So much fear ´bout what may happen-there again ´bout what may not.
How much destiny, free will? How much will to make it stop?
I'm too much into myself, or too much into the rest.

Is this music going anywhere?

10. Like a Kite

Like a kite I'm flying ,without engine or wings, and yet I'm underground.

I arrive, lie lightly there, ”kitely” on the chair.
Easy skanking's what I need ,mind without a care, everybody fair, calm the air.

11. From Within

Art from the heart it's gonna be this song, this sound says, tells me so.
I can do nothing but obey its orders, let's confess, here we go.
So many thing's seem like a test I must pass, I'm damned, I'm jammed if I fail.
If I hear the moans, the groans, the complaints, I snap, I break, I'm so frail.

Ire defends my pride if I am wrong, It's so quick to arise, never takes long.

It's like that with you, like you prone to guilt too I am, so don't have a go.
Maybe I feel like I fail you like others have and that makes me low.
At the slightest hint of attack I put up my shield, won't crack.
If I get hurt, hit, stung by the arrows then somehow I fight back

Thing's haven't gone too well for you and I don't want to make them any worse,
otherwise you may sense there's no sense at all and that life's just a curse.

I hope to help you make it alright. Do the same for me too-days and nights light.

Guitarra acústica, Voz: Julían Paul Woodcock.
