lyrics

To take in the warmth we
Sat drinking iced tea
In ‘Malaysian Blues’

Secure is the secret
That’s passed in the corridor

An invitation

To meet me at the soirée
In the stately home

Where young man Billy
Turns to old man William
A present passed in the future

From a province near Tokyo
His name was Hiro
And he left me this song

His strong influence shows
He knows what I know
I know there’s nothing wrong

And like the leaves longing
To kiss the silent stream

Moving nowhere in the breeze
Come with me
Together we can break free

No one knows what the future holds
But the thought’s not leaving me
Inside
I hear it screaming out loud

Broken hearts have the strongest souls
Lessons learned about life
You said you missed the boat but you didn’t try

Fading in the half-light
You said you missed the boat but you didn’t try

So many people think that
Change will come their way
But the same people fail to go their own way
Leaving change for the dreamers
