Lyrics Steve Hackett

Steve Hackett

Waking to Life

Waking to live learning to love

Like the rising tide quickening the blood

Glide of the falcon flight of the dove

Saw you in my dreams telepathy of love

And I've never seen your face before

Clouds like fountains in the air

Run to earth they soak the ground

A mountain range your glistening face

Monsoon falls a heart that pounds

And I've never seen your face before

Moon and Earth two are in one

Like the rising tide taken at the flood

Ancient mud red walls of clay

Kissed by sun at break of day

The singing moon that fills the room

Silent call of sand dunes

And I've never seen your face before

Waking to life
