Testo Journey - Rick Wakeman
Testo della canzone Journey (Rick Wakeman), tratta dall'album Live at Hammersmith
By horse, by rail, by land, by sea our journey starts
To men and sands by one man's journey from the past
In Iceland where the mountains stood with pride
They set off with their guide to reach the mountainside
Roped as one for safety through the long descent
Into the craters of volcanic rock they went
Look up from our telescopic lair
One star for us to share
We continue on our prayer
Crystals of opaque quartz started limpid tears
Forming magic chandeliers
A light to bliss to guide our reach
Memories of life on earth go flashing past
Of home, of brother, friends and food, the scene is last
Contemplating what has life's been worth
While trapped beneath the earth, an embryo at birth
Greed and fear destroy the beauty I have seen
Of caverns where no other man has ever been
Dark and unpainted, born in vain
My final bow I wave, a life too late to save
Mr. Gobble, pink, white, studded, limp with tears
Storming magic chandeliers
Night, dear Mr. Gobble
Night, dear Mr. Gobble
Night, dear Mr. Gobble
Five days out on infinite sea
They prayed for calm on an ocean free
But the surface of the water
Was indicating some disturbance
The raft was followed by an unseen source
Two hundred feet when the fight met force
And the dark monsters sure to be a giant four
Rising out of an angry sea
Powdered creatures, enemy
And some of the two-sea monsters close for battle
Crocodile teeth, lizard's head
Bloodshot eyes made ocean red
Moving close, finger of sight
Fiend in flames, one of them cried
Save me (Save me)
Save me (Save me)
Save me (Save me)
Save me
Save me
Save me
Save me
The serpents spiraled on for hours
Two monsters opened up like towers
Diving down to the depths in single motion
Suddenly a serpent's head
Shot out of the water bathed in red
And the serpent had formed a lifeless palm of the ocean
Crocodile teeth, lizard's head
Bloodshot eyes made ocean red
Battle won, a victor's pride
Fiend in flames, one of them cried
Praise God (Praise God)
Praise God (Praise God)
Praise God (Praise God)
Praise God
Praise God
Praise God
Praise God
Journey on through ages gone
To the center of the earth
Massive rocks of quartz and granite
The windscape mother nature birthed
Burial grounds of ancient man
Life is now received
Journey through a time unknown
Wonder where he's been
(Wonder where he's been)
(Wonder where he's been)
A showdown gone behind the hills
Farther is still out of sight
The rocks of distant clouds play
Then waves of violent light
The forest roar of a far-gone time
No other man has seen
A private prehistoric world
For you and I a dream
The ground was green, but it did not last
No color has left the earth
Once the ground was faded, dark and cold
Now reached by atmosphere
Creatures twisting on the trees
Use moss as company
Hidden deep below the earth
A frightening bygone age
The shepherd king now lobbys things
Accused by feeble man
The fiend man filled with disbelief
Just turned his water around
Journey through the center of the earth
