Lyrics The Flower Kings

The Flower Kings

Minor Giant Steps

Now imagine, can you, can you, if you will

See the sunrise "colorize" the hills

All the waters running down the mountain streams

Flood of Eden bring to life this dream

Tiny steps,

Minor giant steps in the world unite

Tiny steps, in the wisdom ramp

Minor giant steps in the world unite

On the mountain side, silver thread unwind

Gently linger on, crystal waters chime

Watch the engineer get the details right!

Watch him shape the day

Out of the darkness comes the light

Out of the darkness and the night

Tiny steps, in the wisdom ramp

Minor giant steps in the world unite

Now we understand how we play a part

In the tireless games

All the beauty there is

Our perception of the dream

Sharing equally, all like players of a team

Sixtynine, we're walking on the moon

Sending those waves to see if we're alone

50 million keep choking in the sun

Nothing learned from life still dog eat dog

It's just a transmission so we don't mind

But what about God and what lies behind

Those patterns are old and make no sense

So keep on exploiting until the end

The Masterminds create the new frontiers

So "Einstein me" please I wanna see it clear

Bit by bit they took this world apart

there's no more secret left as it hit the market

It's just a transmission so we don't mind

But what about God and what lies behind

Those patterns are old and make no sense

So keep on exploiting until the end

I'm just the minor giant soul

Trying so hard to understand

The things that I cannot see

arise from inside of me

Coming to terms, to lose control

See how a man becomes a soul

If thinking is wider that the sea

arise from the dream within a dream

It's strange how life's illusions turn

They look so different around the corners

I wasn't prepared for such a journey

and now there ain't no turning back

It's strange how words can start a war

They call it the domino syndrome

(actually, it's the domino theory ;-)

A new world is hiding behind the door

A world that's always been there

I'm just a minor giant bird

Sitting on someone's shoulder

and she might undertake this journey

while I keep getting older

She once was brighter than the sun

I may have been her soulmate

She couldn't speak while she was dumb

but I couldn't figure it out

It's strange how life's illusions turn

They look so different round the corners

I wasn't prepared for such a journey

and now there ain't no turning back

It's strange how words can start a war

They call it the domino syndrome

A new world is hiding behind the door

A world that's always been there
