I had a dream
life everafter
A wife, a home,
and children’s laughter
I had a plan
I kept it all so simple
But I lost it all.

‘Cause I was down on my knees
Losing hope by degrees.
Put my whole life behind me
Went where no one could find me

Where was the spark?
My heart wrung dry
It’s so hard to start again
But there’s still life left worth living
Yes there’s still life worth living

Chorus
So I brave the waves
Ride the wind
I’m facing this world head on
And I’m ready for more!

There are wonderful magical worlds to explore
So show me more,
show me more,
show me more!
Father beyond all I’ve known before.
So show me more,
show me more,
show me more!

And now I hold my head up high again
And I embrace the open sky again.
There are magical worlds to explore
And I know that there’s got to be more
I brave the waves
Ride the wind
I’m facing this world head on
And I’m ready for more!
There are wonderful magical worlds to explore
So show me more,
Show me more,
Show me more!
Farther beyond all I’ve known before.
Show me more,
Show me more,
Show me more!

I’m headed on a fresh new course again
I’m open to a higher force again
I’ve been wasting the years
Giving in to my fears
When I could have discovered majestic frontiers

There are wonderful, magical worlds to explore
So show me more,
Show me more
Show me more.
Farther beyond all I’ve known before
So show me more,
Show me more
Show me more.

Sail on!
Yes, I will add to my story
Sail on!
For my land, my god, and for glory

And on uncharted shores
where no others have gone
We’ll leave the first footprints
and greet the new dawn.
Sail on!

So show me more,
Show me more
Show me more.

So show me more,
Show me more

There are wonderful, magical worlds to explore
So show me more,
Show me more
Show me more.
Farther beyond all I’ve known before
Show me more!

Verse
We were promised a dream
of a far-off land
Where grass is always greener
The water always sweeter
The flowers bloom brighter
The whole wide world is wider
In the promised land

Chorus
I believe in dreams
I believe in promises
I believe in hope
I believe in love
The horizon holds
Promises dreamed
And promises made
Promises kept
And a promised land

Verse
Did we lose our motherland
For this tired old home?
Where skies are looking grayer
Our hearts give up on prayer
Our winter’s getting bleaker
Our hearts are growing weaker
Is the promise lost?

Chorus
I believe in dreams
I believe in promises
I believe in hope
I believe in love
The horizon holds
Promises dreamed
And promises made
Promises kept
And a promised land

Verse
We were promised a time
of legend and song
When smiles are glowing warm
When there’s shelter from the storm
When our backs are never bowed
And our laughter rings out loud
In our promised land.

The horizon holds
Promises dreamed
And promises made
Promises kept
And a promised land

Bridge
I was sent to find that place
Long ago foretold
In maps of old
In sacred scrolls
A land full of wonder and grace

The land is what we make of it—
A paradise or a hell
Is the land we’re leaving, someone else’s
Promised land, as well?

The horizon holds
Promises dreamed
And promises made
Promises kept
And a promised land

The horizon holds
Promises dreamed
And promises made
Promises kept
And a promised land

The horizon holds
Promises dreamed
And promises made
Promises kept
And a promised land

Verse 1
I used to look at the stars, cast my thoughts afar
And wonder …
A sense of mystery filled our hearts—
Our night dreams,
and daydreams.

prechorus
And the greatest wonder:
You showed me love
You gave me new life.
You made me imagine,
You gave me hope
You opened my eyes.

chorus
You’ve shown me countless wonders
Like grains of sand
Like stars in the sky
You pulled me out of my well,
You found my wings
And taught me to fly.
And then from out of nowhere …
You gave me that sky!

Verse 2
I once was hidden away, isolated,
Could only wonder …
I had questions, couldn’t dream
Can’t see rainbows through closed doors

prechorus
And the greatest wonder:
You showed me love
You gave me new life.
You made me imagine,
You gave me hope
You opened my eyes.

chorus
You’ve shown me countless wonders
Like grains of sand
Like stars in the sky
You pulled me out of my well,
You found my wings
And taught me to fly.
And then from out of nowhere …
You gave me that sky!

Verse 3
Just to be by your side
fires my heart and my mind
With wonder …
With you I’ll remain,
and live out the dreams
That we share. What’s out there?

prechorus
And the greatest wonder:
You showed me love
You gave me new life.
You made me imagine,
You gave me hope
You opened my eyes.

chorus
You’ve shown me countless wonders
Like grains of sand
Like stars in the sky
You pulled me out of my well,
You found my wings
And taught me to fly.
And then from out of nowhere …
You gave me that sky!

chorus
You’ve shown me countless wonders
Like grains of sand
Like stars in the sky
You pulled me out of my well,
You found my wings
And taught me to fly.
And then from out of nowhere …
You gave me that sky!

Smell the air
Hear the sea
We are free…
We are free…

Smell the air
Hear the sea
We are free…
We are free…

What if I could change the painting
Add a detail, remove a shadow
What if I said my goodbyes?
What if I confessed my love?

Wish I could make it different
Wish I could fix the errors
and stop the terrors
I wish that was my life.

Chorus
Haunted, hunted,
Oceans are vast,
Fleeing my past,
Running before the mast,
Haunted, hunted

Memories as deep as the sea
My past as dark as the waves
My course was lost in the storm.
Haunted, hunted.

Full circle, but could I escape?
Full circle, and could I survive,
Full circle, with sunrise ahead,
Let me sail round the world.

Chorus
Haunted, hunted,
Oceans are vast,
Fleeing my past,
Running before the mast,
Haunted, hunted

Bridge
Ponder the paths a man takes
What choices, what turns brought me here?
How can I pilot my life
My future, my heart, my love
Like debris on an uncharted sea,
Drifts together and drifts apart?
How can I pilot my life?

Chorus
Haunted, hunted,
Oceans are vast,
Fleeing my past,
Running before the mast,
Haunted, hunted

Verse
I am on a path, I know where I’m led
I am on a path, following the call
I am on a path, salvation lies ahead
I am on a path … will I rise or fall?

Chorus
You push, I pull
You whisper, I shout
You deny, I affirm
I hold fast, you hold doubt.

But there’s no doubt that my faith is strong—
And everything you know is …
WRONG.
My faith is strong.

Verse
You are on a path that leads you astray
You are on a path, there is no reprieve
You are on a path, it won’t help to pray
You are on a path. You have been deceived!

Chorus
You push, I pull
You whisper, I shout
You deny, I affirm
I hold fast, you hold doubt.

But there’s no doubt that my faith is strong—
And everything you know is …
WRONG.

Verse
We each took a path to the promised land
We each took a path trusting what we knew
We each took a path. Truth is close at hand
We each took a path—and I will stop you!

Chorus
You push, I pull
You whisper, I shout
You deny, I affirm
I hold fast, you hold doubt.

But there’s no doubt that my faith is strong—
And everything you know is …
WRONG.

Bridge
My faith is an anchor
A guiding star of hope.
Or is that light the fires of hell?
Either way, I’m going there!

It is my destiny
My prize
My reward
And my salvation
Is it my doom or my choice?
Either way it’s all mine.

Chorus
You push, I pull
You whisper, I shout
You deny, I affirm
I hold fast, you hold doubt.

But there’s no doubt that my faith is strong—
And everything you know is …
WRONG.

But there’s no doubt that my faith is strong—
And everything you know is …
WRONG.

My lighthouse,
Showing me the way
And showing me home.

My lighthouse,
Showing me the power
And showing yourself.

My lighthouse,
Seeing what I need
And seeing who I was.

My lighthouse,
I see how to shine
And I see who you are.

High enough to see
Shining through rough seas
Far enough away
Perspectives that often change

For so long now I’ve looked up to you
Your soul doesn’t waver,
You stand straight and true.
From close or afar, you’ve been my guiding star.
You are my lighthouse.

My lighthouse,
I see what I need
And I see who I was.

My lighthouse,
I see where I failed
And why I need you.

For so long now I’ve looked up to you
Your soul doesn’t waver.
You stand straight and true.
From close or afar, you’ve been my guiding star.
You are my lighthouse.

For so long now I’ve looked up to you
Your soul doesn’t waver.
You stand straight and true.
From close or afar, you’ve been my guiding star.
You are my lighthouse.

Bridge
A bright light calls to me
A silver siren song
Direction in the dark.
A spark in the storm

A view from on high
A sense of perspective
The compass of my heart,.
My life’s direction.
My life’s direction.

High enough to see
Shining through rough seas

For so long now I’ve looked up to you
Your soul doesn’t waver.
You stand straight and true.
From close or afar, you’ve been my guiding star.
You are my lighthouse.

For so long now I’ve looked up to you
Your soul doesn’t waver.
You stand straight and true.
From close or afar, you’ve been my guiding star.
You are my lighthouse.

There’s wonder in creation
You’re searching for the key
In all of your exploration
What have you found
What have you found in me?

There’s wonder in creation
You’re searching for the key
In all of your exploration
What have you found
What have you found in me?

Do I make you afraid?
I’m still me in the end
If your fears are allayed
Will you make me
Will you make me your friend?

Do you love what you see?
Can you see who I am?
Do you want what you see?
Do you want who I am?

I’m the Key to All Creation

Dive deep beneath the surface
Look past the calm façade
You’ll find we all have purpose,
And everyone
And everyone is flawed

A bud may hide a rose
A seed may hide a tree
An egg may hide a dove
What hides inside
What hides inside of me?

Do you love what you see?
Can you see who I am?
Do you want what you see?
Do you want who I am?

I’m the Key to All Creation

Bridge
Just close your eyes
Discard the lies
That dim the light
My heart shines bright

There’s more to truth than vision.
Insight outshines precision.

Be my true confidant.
We could go hand in glove
’Cause I want what you want
Just to love and be loved

Do you love what you see? (Still waters run deep)
Do you see who I am? (Still waters run deep)
Do you want what you see? (Still waters run deep)
Do you want who I am? (Still waters run deep)

Do you love what you see? (Still waters run deep)
Can you see who I am? (Still waters run deep)
Do you want what you see? (Still waters run deep)
Do you want who I am? (Still waters run deep)

I’m the Key to All Creation

I was taught,
I believed,
I had faith,
I didn’t need
To question.

I knew the rules,
I obeyed.
Never swerved,
Never strayed
From my faith.
From my fear.

Am I the only one here?
Echo chamber loud and clear.

My heart is strong
What I know
Can’t be wrong
How can I carry on
Having proved the truth right before my eyes?

This is so unexpected.

There are two
different views.
What I see
What is true.
For me I can’t be wrong,
I am sure.

For so long
I’ve been pure.
I believed,
but I was blind.
Echoing loud and bold.
Dutifully do as I’m told.

My heart is strong
What I know
Can’t be wrong
How can I carry on
Having proved the truth right before my eyes?

This is so unexpected.

My heart is strong
I have faith.
I belong.
How can I carry on?
How can I carry on?

No one expected me to do any good.
Did what I had to be
You would if you could.
Pouring fuel on the flame
Get on my knees and pray for rain.

No one expected me to do any good.
Did what I had to be
You would if you could.
Pour the fuel on the flame
Get on my knees and pray for rain.

What part didn’t you understand?
I said it with a clear voice.
The blood on your hands
Was not your only choice.
All the evil that you do
Was not part of my plan.

I say it again—
What part didn’t you understand?

A simple story told by a simple man
It should have been so clear.
Paradise was always so near.

Not in my name!
Not in my name!
Not in my name!
I’m telling you
Not in my name!
Not in my name!
Not in my name!

You missed the moral of the story.
You missed the whole point.

Did I stutter?
Did I mumble?
Was something lost in translation?
The violence you do and the damage that you’ve caused.
Now you do unto others
Before they do unto you.

I say it again—
What part didn’t you understand?

A simple story told by a simple man
It should have been so clear.
Paradise was always so near.

Not in my name!
Not in my name!
Not in my name!
I’m telling you
Not in my name!
Not in my name!
Not in my name!

You missed the moral of the story.
You missed the whole point.

Not in my name!
Not in my name!
Not in my name!
I’m telling you
Not in my name!
Not in my name!
Not in my name!

You missed the moral of the story.
You missed the whole point.

Spoken
It was a simple story
by a simple man
to love each other
and help if you can.
To learn and grow
And explore this land.
Where did it all go so wrong?

Children dying in the streets
Hatred on the face of all you meet.
Action, reaction—it is not a random interaction.
This was never the plan.

Not in my name!
Not in my name!
Not in my name!
I’m telling you
Not in my name!
Not in my name!
Not in my name!

You missed the moral of the story.
You missed the whole point.
