Every Moment 03:46
Lights burn out, dark prevails. Should I wait for the moment? Feel the space, chance hangs weighted. Should I wait for the moment? I don’t know where to place my feet. I don’t know what I will become. I don’t know where to place my feet. I don’t know what I will become. Should I run for the break of day or should I wait for the moment? Should I wait for the break of day or should I run for the moment? Kiss the night, embrace my faith. Know I will find the moment! Release the weight, freedom’s waiting. Know I will find the moment! I don’t know where to place my feet. I don’t know what I will become. I don’t know where to place my feet. I don’t know what I will become. Should I run for the break of day or should I wait for the moment? Should I wait for the break of day or should I run for the moment? I don’t know if there will be a right time so I don’t know if now is the best time. I don’t know if there will be a right time so I don’t know if now is the best time. Should I run for the break of day or should I wait for the moment? Should I wait for the break of day or should I run for the moment? I don’t know where! I don’t know how! Should I run for the moment? I don’t know where! I don’t know how! Should I run for the moment? Kiss the night, embrace my faith. Know I am in the moment!

Rainy days break summer haze it falls down We’ve sung our songs through many lands now Your voice it calls me home your eyes are my fire side Your lips awake my soul And the walls fall down As the ocean pounds We stand like day and night we, we stand side by side With walls torn town Cold wind blows in from shore we will explore But for now your hands warm mine Your cheeky smile and your loyalty they urge me to give all of me My love’s right here lain out And the walls fall down As the ocean pounds We stand like day and night we, we stand side by side With walls torn town With my best strength I give all of me You pull my heart as moon draws the sea Let our love reign down And the walls fall down As the ocean pounds We stand like day and night we, we stand side by side We stand like day and night we, our love is intertwined With walls torn town

Je t’aime avec tout mon coeur, mais je ne sais pas comment te le dire. Je pense souvent à toi mais je ne sais pas comment te le dire. Tes yeux éclairent plus que le soleil. Mon coeur sourit quand j’entend ta voix. Je t'aime ! Tu es mon choix ! Je chante “Tu es mon choix !” Mon amour est pour toi parce que tu est mon choix. Quand je te vois je suis le désert, qui est béni avec la pluie. Quand tu quittes je suis la goute d’eau solitaire dans la rivière. Shanteya je chante “Tu es mon choix !” Mon amour est pour toi parce que tu es mon choix. Tu es mon choix ! C’est toi Shanteya ! Mon amour est pour toi parce que tu es mon choix ! Parce que tu es mon choix ! Parce que tu es mon choix !

Venezia 03:37
The old paved streets they wind and turn like twisted vines Go to the end you’ll find you stand by waters side So take the other road the one you didn’t plan to go Follow your feet you’ll see your story’s never been told Let your voice out don’t let your song be bound We’re here right now we travelled not the same road No-o-o but we sail on the same boat Oh-o-o moving forward we go on With red roses in hand by proud towers we stand Where water surrounds the land follow the soulful sound Through the cobbled maze past grand temples of praise Come together through song and share a beautiful exchange Let your voice out don’t let your song be bound We’re here right now we travelled not the same road No-o-o but we sail on the same boat Oh-o-o moving forward we go on Let your voice out don’t let your song be bound We’re here right now we travelled not the same road No-o-o but we sail on the same boat Oh-o-o moving forward we go on

The Winged Lion watches over San Marco Haunted masks below come and go, they come and go But the Winged Lion watches from dawn to dusk to dawn As haunted masks fade one face remains, the Winged Lion

Bare your teeth young one, they come with their fire axes and guns Our claws are sharp and strong, but powered by greed they’ve come for blood So bare your teeth and howl, give them something to fear though they should fear themselves Release the mountain’s sound, this is our home so stand your ground We are the wolves that cry We are the mountain’s sound We are the wolves that cry Misty peaks lookout, where dark conifers march to higher ground Climb them soaring towers, the road’s deadly steep so never look down Bare your teeth and howl, let our songs be heard clear through the valleys profound The forest sleeps for now, so awaken the ancient mighty power We are the wolves that cry We are the mountain’s sound We are the wolves that cry The mountain eye she stirs, her silvery depths have seen all blessed and cursed Bear and falcon bow, while the sycamore seeks her wisdom out “Protect this realm” she howls, “keep the poison away from our veins listen now.” “Fight with all your will, but true victory comes when no blood is spilled.” We are the wolves that cry We are the mountain’s sound We are the wolves that cry Bare your teeth young one they come they come oh Bare your teeth young one they come they come they’re strong Bare your teeth young one they come they come for blood Bare your teeth and howl We are the wolves that cry We are the mountain’s sound We are the wolves that cry We are the wolves that cry We are the mountain’s sound We are the wolves that cry They’re coming they’re coming

Taken 04:18
Can you hear? Can you hear me? Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh The wind she sings with her hollow tongue Reveals cracks and spaces That have been there for so long Cloaked beneath the darkness The wind she howls her ferocious roar Tearing at rooves and tree tops Where we quiver not from the cold But the power that this night holds We sit here waiting anticipating Praying its not our hour to be Taken To be taken Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh Skeleton trees twist through the mist Leaves torn from their branches They bend so close to breaking The wind her fill she’s taking On the hill no lights do dance Just the ever darkening expanse we We sit here waiting As candle light starts painting We sit here waiting Praying not to be taken Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh No light, no light just the darkest night Where haunting melodies steel away the sea They dance freely As thundering sea stallions they breathe We sit here waiting anticipating Praying its not our hour to be Taken To be taken Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh We sit here waiting anticipating Praying its not our hour to be Taken To be taken

Coming Home 04:46
We’re coming home from the road and all its stones We’re coming home from the church bell’s call at dawn We’re coming home from the trees of red and gold We’re coming home from the windy cobbled road We are young and we are old We are coloured rainbow From the ice caves to the desert wind From the islands to the mountains We are one and we are all We’re all life this world holds From the ice caves to the desert wind From the islands to the mountains We’re coming home from the castles and their thrones We’re coming home from the many lingual tones We’re coming home from the winter’s growing cold We’re coming home from this minstrel’s life we’ve known We are young and we are old We are coloured rainbow From the ice caves to the desert wind From the islands to the mountains We are one and we are all We’re all life this world holds From the ice caves to the desert wind From the islands to the mountains From the darkness to the light, from blindness to clear sight We are young and we are old We are coloured rainbow From the ice caves to the desert wind From the islands to the mountains We are one and we are all We’re all life this world holds From the ice caves to the desert wind From the islands to the mountains We are one and we are all We’re all life this world holds From the ice caves to the desert wind From the islands to the mountains
