EPIPHANY (Clark/Palmer) A thunderclap, a flash of light a bolt that shattered the dark a revelation in the night a future waiting to start I was lost in a dream, I was mystified by the things I had seen on the other side I was gone, I was sinking fast like a ship in a storm and if this day was to be my last it didn’t matter at all I was left with a glimpse of reality Every taste, every love, every push, every shove; every case, every soul, every race, every goal; every and the part that it plays in my destiny heart, every face, every part, every trace; every port, every case, every sort, every place; every fall, Every thought, every dream, everything I have ever been every call, every score, every door; every eye, every sky, every whore, every lie; every seed, every need, came to me and the blood that I bleed; every tear, every fear, every look, every lear; every note, every chord, every Epiphany sigh when I’m bored; every scheme, every laugh, every single photograph; every love I have known, every move, every part, every beat of my lonely heart everything I have owned; every dream, every scene, everywhere that I’ve been; every meal, every date, they all came to me every friend, every mate; every bend, every curve, every start, my fate; every fight, every walk in the Epiphany night, all I’ve lost; every cent, every joint, every win, what it cost: every time I’m on track and when I’ve Think I left a part of me been wrong, every smile I got back, every word of this song a part worth leaving behind in a hotel room that night a ghost for someone to find I was lost in a dream I was mystified by the things I had seen on the other side Every thought, every dream, everything I have ever been came to me Epiphany every move, every part, every beat of my lonely heart they all came to me Epiphany HERE AND NOW Let’s talk about freedom JESUS STREET (Clark/Palmer) and make a stand (Clark) let’s be the change that leads In the words of the king to the promised land I hit the ground running there will come a day let’s come together I didn’t say goodbye when the hearts and souls of man and make a vow I was heading down the highway will find a way to talk about freedom with the first light of dawn kingdom come in the here and now at least the sun was on my side cross on fire let’s talk about freedom still talking about freedom in the here and now I took it to the limit let’s talk about freedom to where I’d never been before As the eyes of the world in the here and now I’d been walking on the wild side look the other way playing with our lives forget about rights, if you weren’t born white well I’m not playing any more there’s a price to pay we’ll still be here Then I found myself on Jesus Street on judgement day on the great divide, where the angels meet talking about freedom I found myself on Jesus Street on the great divide, where the angels meet Let’s talk about freedom and make a stand I was in the dream chamber let’s be the change that leads I could feel the desert wind blowing in my hair to the promised land whispering the answer for the second time let’s come together and it blew my mind and make a vow to talk about freedom Then I found myself on Jesus Street in the here and now on the great divide, where the angels meet I found myself on Jesus Street We are children of the revolution on the great divide, where the angels meet we dreamed to make a better world we hold up our hands and cry for freedom freedom! 3 CHORD TRICK LOOKING FOR AMERICA (Palmer) (Clark) I’d like to disagree with you that crime don’t pay I was the eyes of the nation, their man on the ground but you make a lot of enemies along the way in the heat of the action wherever it was found the alchemy you need find the perfect lick living on the frontline, bringing home the news the sleight of hand until you find the three chord trick with God on our side we could never ever lose He made a lot of money and he made a lot of foes Looking for America, looking for America I guess he liked the smell of it just following his nose and once you find the formula you can’t go wrong Hitched a ride with a sweet sixteen if you’ve played the blues, you knew it all along prettiest thing I have ever seen play the three chord trick and you’ve got yourself a song set up in the back seat and whispered my goodbyes then she lit up and took me to the skies He can juggle with the best of them and that’s a fact he can conjure an illusion from a loaded pack Looking for America, looking for America he’ll try to take the credit for it, that won’t stick it’s just another version of the three chord trick Stars they were shining like diamonds in the night when the lights of New York city rose on my right He’s holding all the cards and you can take your choice and the eastern seaboard simmered in the heat don’t look him in the eyes, don’t listen to the voice I shed a tear and started rocking to the beat if you focus on the hands you can’t go wrong if you paid your dues you knew it all along Looking for America, looking for America play the three chord trick and you’ve got yourself a song They call it double dealing and the art is in the hand many years of practice and your wish is my command if you believe in magic let the mystery unfold and it seems that sand turns into gold MAGDALENE I’m left with the memory BOUNTY HUNTER I made my escape (Clark) under my skin (Caviglia /Clark/Palmer) had to think ahead and the moon, and the stars her one big mistake A walk in the park and the movement of the sea She’d been in the wars she let me tie her to the bed a kiss in the dark Magdalene scars on all of her faces a dance in the moonlight she’d got her reward I said my goodbyes as the world sleeps curves in all the right places and I didn’t look back the feelings run deep and to my surprise everything’s alright She taught me some moves still had my heart and soul intact and I’m no stranger to the game A ship in the night I couldn’t refuse There was a price upon my head leaves with the tide to feel the pleasure and the pain and she was out to get me didn’t say goodbye didn’t care, alive or dead a ship in the night And as I looked into her eyes this is cowboy country gone with the wind I felt a shiver down my spine and as I looked into her eyes didn’t say goodbye only one thing on her mind I felt a shiver down my spine Magdalene she was a bounty hunter only one thing on her mind she was a bounty hunter A date in the palms “What’s in this for me?” lost in your charms her words still echo in my mind in your insight “It don’t come for free a break in the calm I’m not the giving kind” an exchange of arms all over by midnight So eager to please she was an easy lover A ship in the night down on her knees leaves with the tide I knew she’d blown her cover didn’t say goodbye a ship in the night And as I looked into her eyes gone with the wind I felt a shiver down my spine didn’t say goodbye only one thing on her mind she was a bounty hunter a gold digger baby TELL ME WHY TWISTING THE KNIFE (Caviglia /Clark/Palmer) (Palmer) Tell my why She was no stranger to the ways of the sword the sky is grey everyday and had scars to prove it tell me why black and white she was 20 years my junior lord are the only colours you reveal to me I just couldn’t refuse it why babe are you so far away keeping your she was an accident just waiting to happen distance and I was in the right place tell me why it was looking like a fatal attraction you don’t tell me why like a moth to a flame Tell me why And she was taking no prisoners I’m in the dark and I’m waiting for a sign I got straight to the point tell me why she said if you think you can handle it I’m feeling left behind let’s get out of this joint tell me why there’s no light so I fired up the 257 and shade in this empty place put my foot to the floor tell me why I can’t see our future she said this ain’t my idea of heaven you don’t tell me why in the palm of your hands come on, give me some more why babe twisting the knife I see your shape tonight are you so far away from me she knew how to hurt me in shadows on the wall tell me why I need your taste tonight you don’t tell me why To add insult to injury Getting back to reality I want it all pouring salt in the wound I had sand in my shoes I wanna feel your heart now I see your shape tonight she was listening with apathy I was running on empty beating next to mine in shadows on the wall to all my favourite tunes already yesterday’s news when we’re apart, babe I need your taste tonight as we were running the red lights and if you’re looking for a happy ending it’s bringing out my darker side I want it all down the telegraph road that’s as good as it gets I wanna feel your heart now then it was countdown to ecstasy in a motel everyday the scars are mending Tell me why beating next to mine she knows every time it hurts less I see your footprints in the sand when we’re apart babe twisting the knife twisting the knife tell me why it’s bringing out my darker side she knew how to hurt me she knew how to hurt me GOD’S LAND TWO DAYS OFF (Clark) (Clark) It was something, something that you said to me Two days off as we watched the road unwind, rain turn into snow time out of mind we were talking about the valley of the river Tyne two days off when I saw something in you from the rest of mankind the world has left behind with good intentions to chill and unwind we rocked the beach and left a legend behind We had crossed the borderline into the sacred and divine Two days off heading north on the sixty nine a break from the grind we had found our way
