Roaming inbetween the worlds of sleep and awake Seems so far away from where I've been and untrue but unafraid Intrusting -- my soul -- I know I must be taken to see the world that is Not so far from now Imaginations come and sweep the shores of my mind Letting it be, visions pass, and emotions arise-- Letting them go, and beyond are doors I've never seen, opening one by one (Wake up and show the light, wake up the time is right) I hear a voice, hear a voice calling out to me Look inside, see the light now ever holding you All the truth is all you need to make of your reality, its right here Look deep within your shell Finding out a galaxy of planets and stars within me Listening to each of them singing the same silent melody I've never seen such beauty in possibility -- no speck of doubt or fear (Wake up and show the light, wake up the time is right) I hear a voice, hear a voice calling out to me I see inside, see the light now ever holding me All the truth, all I need to make of this reality it's -- beauty within the shell (Wake up and show the light, wake up the time is right) I hear a voice, hear a voice calling out to me I see inside, see the light now ever holding me All the truth, all I need to make of this reality, it's inside Right here within this shell The sandglass starts for another time's beginning from within Cotton fields, mama's arms are gently unfolding me into the new... (Wake up and show the light, wake up the time is right) [Reading] Here from behind my sight, my thoughts my mind Show from the light The time is right And from the depth within show the balance Of outer and inner harmony Mind and heart, soul and spirit undivided Here's where teh true strength and beauty lies We'll see this before us with our own eyes We'll see, with our own eyes... LOVE (Wake up and show the light, wake up the time is right) I hear a voice, hear a voice calling out to me I see inside, see the light now ever holding me All the truth, all I need to make of this reality it's -- beauty within the shell
