Stolen Sun 06:13
Hunters ‘ahold her pure gold Expands from a rock of pure gold Under and over pure souls Abides by the rule of pure souls And hold in accordance light of someday And hold in a stolen sun... ...someday

How the days go softly, and how the waves, oh the night, devoured all in one. Peaceful and tender, her rays couldn’t fall but I, oh I, see how it goes. Take one look, and higher the ivy steps. How do I know what is true? Taken away the days they’re beside me and I, how do I, believe it’s true? And just like day breeze I am not seeing clearly. Oh the days rushing and falling, and I, how do I, stay straight? And all the time, growing like ivy steps to the eye, then I can see… Blue is the sky, Grey is the earth beneath it. We saw the sky glisten beside you and I, how do I believe you... ...if one time you’re this and other one you’re that, how do I believe you’re true? And just like the moon, Telling us different stories.

1 . Stolen Sun

Hunters ‘ahold her pure gold
Expands from a rock of pure gold
Under and over pure souls
Abides by the rule of pure souls

And hold in accordance light of someday
And hold in a stolen sun...
...someday


2 . amidst fierce flames

Solo piano

‘even in the midst of fierce flames the Golden Lotus may be planted’ - Monkey by Wu Ch'Eng-En.


3 . The Ivy Steps

How the days go softly, and how the waves,
oh the night, devoured all in one.
Peaceful and tender, her rays couldn’t fall but I, oh I, see how it goes.

Take one look, and higher the ivy steps. How do I know what is true?
Taken away the days they’re beside me and I, how do I, believe it’s true?

And just like day breeze
I am not seeing clearly.

Oh the days rushing and falling, and I, how do I, stay straight?
And all the time, growing like ivy steps to the eye, then I can see…

Blue is the sky,
Grey is the earth beneath it.

We saw the sky glisten beside you and I, how do I believe you...
...if one time you’re this and other one you’re that, how do I believe you’re true?

And just like the moon,
Telling us different stories.
