[Verse 1] Overhead the albatross Hangs motionless upon the air And deep beneath the rolling waves In labyrinths of coral caves The echo of a distant time Comes willowing across the sand And everything is green and submarine
[Chorus 1] And no one showed us to the land And no one knows the where's or why's But something stirs and something tries And starts to climb toward the light
[Verse 2] Strangers passing in the street By chance, two separate glances meet And I am you and what I see is me And do I take you by the hand And lead you through the land And help me understand the best I can
[Chorus 2] And no one calls us to move on And no one forces down our eyes No one speaks and no one tries No one flies around the sun

One of These Days
[Verse 1] Little by little, the night turns around Counting the leaves which tremble at dawn Lotuses lean on each other in yearning Under the eaves, the swallow is resting
[Refrain] Set the controls for the heart of the sun
[Verse 2] Over the mountain, watching the watcher Breaking the darkness, waking the grapevine One inch of love is one inch of shadow Love is the shadow that ripens the wine
[Refrain] Set the controls for the heart of the sun
[Interlude] The heart of the sun The heart of the sun The heart of the sun The heart of the sun The heart of the sun
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 3] Witness the man who raves at the wall Making the shape of his question to Heaven Whether the sun will fall in the evening Will he remember the lesson of giving
[Refrain] Set the controls for the heart of the sun
[Outro] The heart of the sun The heart of the sun The heart of the sun The heart of the sun The heart of the sun The heart of the sun The heart of the sun

Echoes - Part 2
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 3] Cloudless, every day you fall Upon my waking eyes Inviting and inciting me to rise And through the window in the wall Come streaming in on sunlight wings A million bright ambassadors of morning
[Chorus 3] And no one sings me lullabies And no one makes me close my eyes So I throw the windows wide Call to you across the sky

Careful with That Axe, Eugene - Alternate Take
