In A Minute
One morning the world looked different
The sky had lost all it’s light
Everything looks different thanks to
- the voice in my dream last night
Change happens in an instant
But it must start with you
Change happens forever
I choose you, I choose you
From now on the world is different
Stretched forever by this new experience
Everything around is so unreal
The voice has lost its pretence
Change happened in an instant
Bit has to start with you
Make yourself believe it
Do what’s best for you

Ravi Shankar’s Daughter
Ooh – I am in love with Ravi Shankar’s daughter
And she doesn’t even know
Do you think her mother knows what she brought us
Do you think her father shouts from the hilltops?
Ooh – I am love with Ravi Shankar’s daughter
And she really should know
My sweet love – Alleluia
I really want to see you - My sweet lord
I really want to be with you
So I can always hear you play
Hare Krishna
I am in love with Ravi Shankar’s daughter
The spirit in her fingers makes my body quiver
Ravi Shankar’s daughter
Rave Shankar’s daughter

Space Station Mia
Sitting on a slow train-watching the grey sky
I smell your closeness as you take a seat close by
And soon I fantasize over your reflection
You don't see my advances of deception
Ain't it funny how someone so near
Can act as if they are on the Space Station Mia
Tickets please-the fat man says
You lend me a smile as he waddles away
I am fascinated to see what your text message says
Is it from your lover-does he miss you today
Ain't it funny how someone so near
Can act as if they are on the Space Station Mia
Every station that passes- every stop we make
Adds another word to what I should say
Were slowing down-your walking away
My lost conversation - my sunshine today

Lonely Paradise
I thought the sobbing so sweet the day that I had to say goodbye
Now I am in paradise alone it’s those tears that really make me cry
Perfume in the air from flowers I cannot name
Birds on my balcony that I don’t need to tame
It’s a lonely paradise
A lonely lovely paradise
That isn’t the same without you
That makes the blue sky days seems blue
Lovers on the beach saying hello to me as they walk on by
I check my phone for messages seeing if you are there just to say hi.
I thought that I wanted to get away – far away
To numb the pain – but the tropical winds just fans the flames
It’s a lonely paradise
A lonely lovely paradise
That isn’t the same without you

It's All So Clear
Lady I can see – that you are everything to me
I know that you are for me - wipe away a tear
A feeling like this is the greatest
Like it floated down from above
And I know that you’re for me – it’s all so clear
Hold me tight - as tight as you can
And we will know that that this will last forevermore – hey yeah
Oh - What an amazing love
Taking us into the arms of love
When we hold each other
Nothing can get in our way
Oh - What a perfect feeling
One that only we have found
And we both truly know
That the future is so clear
