Space Rocker Light skimmer, Light walker... Smooth talker, Space Rocker.... White silver clouds and deep blue sky will you open up and let us pass by... A safe place in the universe... Will we find it in our search? Light skimmer, Light walker... Smooth talker, Space Rocker... Going past the furthest stars... there's no question that we're going far... but when we get there can we survive the bombs and the poisons that we derive? Light skimmer, Light walker... Smooth talker, Space Rocker... Oh, Holy God, won't you fill my soul? And show me what's the everlasting goal... Is it life? Is it love? Is it clear to see... just what could last through eternity? Light skimmer, Light walker... Smooth talker, Space Rocker. written in 1979 by and copyright 1993, 1999 by Michael Lee Steenbergen All Rights Reserved |

"Know Yourself" You only know yourself, yet yourself can't really know you. You only show yourself, Yet yourself can't really show you How to be a mirror image of what you think you see. How to change your misconceptions become what you will have be How to change your broad illusions into reality. You don't love you. How come I do? |

ANTHEM OF SEASONS
Look, my brothers, the sunrise above the broad horizon. When it sets we will live in peace: No war! No hate! No guns! Through the dark of the deepest night you can see the glorious day. Truth and justice will give us life. Love will guide the way. Take my hand and I'll take yours. Together we will span the endless space of the universe with the brotherhood of man. |
| Lay by My Side (wav) |
Lay By My Side I could be pope or president, I could drive a Mercedes Benz. I been downtown in my limousine and I know I'm going back again. But , darling, if you asked me where I want to be, I 'd tell you I'm there and don't want to go. Just stay here with me. Will you lay by my side in the night. Will you lay down beside me on a thousand starry nights. Will you lay by my side in the night. I been around and up on stage I think I was a superstar My moma she loves me for all that I am and all that I ever will be MORE TO COME SOON 02/01/2006
