Lyrics

Another World

Don’t get much starlight on the dark side of Mars
Our fates forgotten
So I’ll write them in the stars
I’d give forever
A treasure
To stay with you

In another world (another world)
(We’re coming, we’re coming back again)
Another world (another world)
(We’ll be together in time)

I hold the galaxy in my shaky hand
I’m waiting for you
Where ancient travelers stand
I wanna reach you
Beseech you
To stay with me

In another world (another world)
(We’re coming, we’re coming back again)
Another world (another world)
(We’ll be together in time)

Can you hear me calling
Sing across the space divide
I can feel you falling
Promise I’ll be there in time
So long ago, so far away

Starlight, keep shining down on me
(We’re coming back again)
‘Cause yours is the only light I see
(We’ll be together in time)

I hold the galaxy in my shaky hand
I’m waiting for you
Where ancient travelers stand
You’re still my solace,
I promise,
You’ll still hear me

From another world
(We’re coming, we’re coming back again)
Another world
(We’ll be together in time)

Blackbird (Tamara’s Museum Opening Song from Fourth World and Different Worlds)

Feathers on the sea
Tears upon the dark waves
Once there was a song
A treasure drowned in your grave

But if you could take my hand
We would fly
And if I could hear your voice
I would dream we never left the sky

Blackbird, fly away
Leave the deep behind you
Sing into the night
Until the daylight finds you

Blackbird, fly away
So far away

Feathers on the stream
Currents cold around you
Fly with me in dreams
Let sunlit love surround you

But if you could spread your wings,
Fear would end
And if I could hear your song
Death could never freeze my heart again

Blackbird, fly away
Let rivers take your sorrow
Sing into the dawn
That brings a bright tomorrow
Blackbird, fly away
So far away

None Can Stop the Sun (From One World)

VERSE 1:

It’ll be a beautiful morning
Blue sky and gentle breeze
The meantΓ‘n gorm will sing joyful songs
I only wish that you could see

It’ll be a terrible sunrise
They’ve sworn to kill your dream
By a tyrant’s cruel and bloodied hands,
They’ll take my love from me.

CHORUS:

But sing, my love, so all can hear
Above the cry of guns
We’ll sing for you, all through the night
For none can stop the sun,
No, none can stop the sun

VERSE 2:

We’ve had a harrowing journey
Across centuries and stars
No fairy tale nor wildest dream
Could bring us where we are

There is no shining Atlantis
Nor starlit promised land
But we can make our world a Paradise
With Earth and our own hands

(CHORUS x 1)

BRIDGE:

Though stars may fall
You’re not alone
We’ll stand with you
As a new day dawns

(CHORUS x 2 -> OUTRO)

One World

OPENING CHANT:

Aeisi yacunos (sing, my love)
Ne’makria volsi (fly away)
Ne’teos anasi se (leave the grave behind you)

VERSE 1:

See, see now:
Stars are falling down, again
Hear, hear now:
Songs are rising up, again
Feel, feel now!
Heartbeats in time
In time! (we’re coming back again)

CHORUS 1:

Starlight, keep shining down on me
(Ne’mi lumisi asterioi)
Shine as we leave the grave behind
(Ne’teos anasi se)

Centuries infinite flow like a wind
Bind us together, to where we begin

BETWEEN:

Silence falls, but hear my words
Call you from another world

Aeisi yacunos (sing, my love)
Ne’makria volsi (fly away)
Ne’teos anasi se (leave the grave behind you)

VERSE 2:

Sing, my love,
As we sing for you, through all the night
Fly, my love,
Leave all thoughts of graves behind
Feel our love,
Eternal as the sun,
The sun (for none can stop the sun)

CHORUS 2:

Ne’mi lumisi asterioi
(Starlight, keep shining down on me)
Ne’teos anasi se
(Shine as we leave the grave behind)

Bright constellations look down evermore
Time is a spiral; we’ve been here before

BRIDGE:

(For none can stop the sun; sing from another world)

OUTRO:

Spinning circles without end
Sun goes dark to rise again

Aeisi yacunos (sing, my love)
Ne’makria volsi (fly away)
Ne’teos anasi se (leave the grave behind you)
