Highs And Lows

Music & Lyrics By John Zay
I took a chance and left one day
Sold all my stuff and walked away
A voice inside kept me on track
I can’t believe it when I look back
The life I built was ready to go
And who am I to stop the flow
High’s and Lows
I’ll see you from the other side
I know I’ll be ok
Days and Nights
I’ll meet you in the other room
where everything’s all right....High’s and lows
It wasn’t easy to close the door
Goodbye to friends and so much more
But in the madness I heard a sound
It pulled me back down to the ground
Got off the plane and walked on a stage
and without a blink I turned the page
High’s and Lows
I’ll see you from the other side
I know I’ll be ok
Days and Nights
I’ll meet you in the other room
where everything’s all right....High’s and lows
Ohh - Highs and Lows…
It’s my Vitalogy
You can’t be Rid Of Me
I feel like Aladdin Sane
High’s and Lows
I’ll see you from the other side
I know I’ll be ok
Days and Nights
I’ll meet you in the other room
where everything’s all right
Highs and Lows - Days and Nights
Boys and girls - Wrong and Right
Yin and Yang
There is room for everybody in my world
In my world, in my world
There is room for everybody in my world
Highs & Lows…..

Music & Lyrics By John Zay
You and I at the edge of the ocean
You and I at the top of the sky
Making love through a life of devotion
Waking up as we stop to wonder why
You and I on the brink of tomorrow
Down to earth with our feet in the sand
sifting through all the joy and the sorrow
We’re walking hand in hand
When all the word is lost to me
I will wait for an answer, wait for an answer
Until your love is all I see
I will wait for an answer, wait for an answer
You & I looking through the illusion
You & I staring death in the eye
as the floods leave our hearts in confusion
the fires will burn our skies
When all the word is lost to me
I will wait for an answer, wait for an answer
Until your love is all I see
I will wait for an answer, wait for an answer
Until we find a place to be
where our children can be free
Beyond the gilded cage of greed
Between the lines of fantasy
You and I past the eyes of deception
You and I taking off our disguise
Tappin' in to the truth of connection
as the ocean drops a tear from our eyes
When all the word is lost to me
I will wait for an answer, wait for an answer
Until your love is all I see
I will wait for an answer, wait for an answer

In Her Breeze

Music & Lyrics By John Zay
Head to the light
pull yourself out of the pain
Take on the night
there will always be another day
Wait for the signs
you’ve never really lost your way
see through the times
let yourself run and play
It’s not so easy
but it doesn't have to be so hard
It’s not so easy
to be strong all the time
I listen to the voice that hears
the place that knows I can face these fears
I let myself feel my deepest needs
and rest a while in her breeze
Look for the love
the teacher has many forms
know you have enough
to weather out the storms
I listen to the voice that hears
the place that knows I can face these fears
I let myself feel my deepest needs
and rest a while in her breeze
It’s not so easy
but it doesn't have to be so hard
It’s not so easy
to be strong all the time
Inch towards the sun
plant your roots deep in the ground
be with the one
who's given us the gift of sound
I listen to the voice that hears
the place that knows I can face these fears
I let myself feel my deepest needs
and rest a while in her breeze

Music & Lyrics By John Zay
New day sunrise
Breaking dawn cries
Embrace me, Embrace me
Transform dark skies
Rise up realize
I’m waking, I’m waking
You are the one
Who’s been calling out me
Bring your truth into this world
Amaze me
I know you wondered
Where I was when you were lost
I was waiting
For you to come around
Seasons of life
Left you surprised
Changing, you’re changing
Future is here
No need to fear
Belonging belonging
I fall in love
When you truly set me free
Bring your truth into this world
Amaze me
I know you wondered
Where I was when you were lost
I was waiting
For you to come around
Bring Your Truth
Bring Your Truth
Amaze Me
Bring your Truth In..
..to this world
Bring Your Truth
I've been waiting
For you to come Around
Bring your truth into this world
Amaze me
I know you wondered
Where I was when you were lost
I was waiting
For you to come around

Together In The Light

Music & Lyrics By John Zay
Let me know today
are we gonna stay
together in the light
together in the light
As the world goes round
as the walls fall down
we wait for the morning light
I hold you through the night
Innocent heart of love there is no sound, there is no sound
Innocent light of love did I let you down today?
It's 3 AM again
the witch is in the den
a fire's burning bright
we're together in the light
And as it burns I see
a sign that you are free
on your way to the the light
together through the night
Innocent heart of love there is no sound, there is no sound
Innocent light of love did I let you down? You’re in the ground
How can I live with myself and just walk away, just walk away
How can I ever accept that you can’t be saved - you’re gone today!
No goodbyes my friend
until we meet again
sun bathing outside
together In the light

Worlds Apart
05:00

|
Music & Lyrics By John Zay
It’s Friday afternoon and the sun is on its way down
The wind knocks on your front door but there’s no one around
You’re caught up in a moment whose time has come and gone
You walk outside and fall into the comfort of your car
The road leads you into the past, a dream so very far
Your looking for a moment whose time has come and gone
In this world of illusion it’s so hard to see
a world that seems to take away, what you believe
Breathe alone and find your way – your world's apart
Know that help is here today - your world's apart
your world's apart….
Sifting through the pictures from a lifetime ago
Talking to each other about a place we called home
Reaching for a moment whose time has come and gone
In this world of illusion it’s so hard to see
a world that seems to take away, what you believe
Breathe alone and find your way - your world's apart
Know that help is here today - your world's apart
Fading memories
So hard to get your life on track
Wander Off into the sun
I know there's a part of you that wants to come back
Breathe alone and find your way - your world's apart
Know that help is here today - your world's apart
your world's apart......yea - your world's apart

A Fish Out Of Water
04:42
|
|||
|
Music & Lyrics By John Zay
She wakes up the world with the sound of her violence
Of her violence
It comes like a wave in the midst of the silence
Of the silence
An echo from the past
A spell that had been cast
Now the battle is right here
With anyone
Who dares to try and cross her path
They left her behind in the dust of the drama
of the drama
She’s wondering why she must deal with the trauma
With the trauma
She has no escape
Just a place to integrate
The wisdom from her fears
And listen to
A heart that must learn to breathe
A fish out of water
Silently falling down down down
A spiritual disorder
When the now is lost
And her feet can’t find their way to the ground
She’s bathes in the light
To make it through one more night
Throws away the master key
That separates the story of you and me
She’s freeing the depths of the rain in the silence
In the silence
And cleansing the shadows of pain from the violence
From the violence

Air And Sea

Music & Lyrics By John Zay
Every time I say hello to you
Every time I say goodbye to you
Every time I get hung up on you
Every time I can’t breathe without you
Every way I want to say you cannot be in my life
Every way I want to take us away
and bring us to a new life
Yea - in the air you we’re wanted
In the sea you we’re lookin’ for me
In the air you we’re wanted
In the sea you we’re lookin’ for me
Why didn’t you call out my name?
Why didn’t you call out my name?
Every single night I answered the phone for you
I stayed up late for you
Every time I stopped what I was doing for you
was tired the next day for you…
but then you said it was through
Now please see me there
you’re all I have to care
Please see me there….
Huh - in the air you we’re wanted
In the sea you we’re lookin’ for me
In the air you we’re wanted
In the sea you we’re lookin’ for me
I bent over backwards
I saw you come all the way here
I thought in your heart you could see
Yea - in the air you we’re wanted
In the sea you we’re lookin’ for me
In the air you we’re wanted
In the sea you we’re lookin’ for me
In the air you we’re wanted
In the sea you we’re lookin’ for me
In the air you we’re wanted
In the sea you we’re lookin’ for me yea-eh-eah
Why didn’t you call out my name?
Air and sea

Music & Lyrics By John Zay
You and I will find
that we are aligned
You and I will see
that we're meant to be
naked, running, open, loving, free....
In this world of chance
take your time and dance
Enchanted by the sound
In this sea of waves
neck in neck we play
I want to be by your…side….
You and I will know
that we’re in the flow
You and I will find
that we are divine
beings, hearing, seeing, feeling, free…
Through the longest dream
Nothing’s what it seems
We’re open to surprise
Through the longest day
we choose what to say
The image comes from in…side
You and I will see
we can always be
You and I will care
cause we’re meant to share
Love….
