PURANAS: The Ancient probes still further into the past beyound the
point of remembering. Here Steve's guitar is pivotal in sharpening
reflection on the beauties and treasures of lots civilisations,
Indian, Chinese, Central American, Atlantean. These and other

As one with the knowledge and magic of the source
Atuned to the majesty of music
They marched as one with earth


Sol, Dhoop
Sun
Ilios
Naytheet
Ah Kin
Saule
Tanatiuh
Qurax
Gunes, Grian
Surie
Ir
Samse


So the flowering creativity of life wove its
Web face to face with the shallow
And their gods soought out and conquered: Ah Kin


Do the leaves of green stay greener through the autumn
Does the colour of the sun turn crimson white
Does a a shadow come between us in the winter
Is the movement really light


And I heard a million voices singing
Acting to the story that they had heard about
Does one child know the secret and can say it
Or does it all come out along without you
Along without you
Along without you


Where does reason stop and killing just take over
Does a lamb cry out before we shoot it dead
Are there many more in comfort understanding
Is the movement in the head


And I heard a million voices singing
Acting to the story that they had heard about
Does one child know the secret and can say it
Or does it all come out along without you
Along without you
Along without you
