I'm waiting for your hands
to fold around my wrist I'm mellowing in warm grass and the scent of you I've missed And blue is representing the draft in my heart I'm wandering through thin skies and the transparent air I've missed Pale is my face you might want to colour while I breathe I'm following large drops of rain with my eyes on the sight of you I've missed Pale is my face you might want to colour while I breathe 02. The Earth Is My Witness [Edit] Music by The Gathering Lyrics by Anneke van Giersbergen
Mother earth look at her closely
she looks at her baby and she sighs the slight breathing pause that she takes it builds her and makes her strong She refuses to give her up and we close our eyes Her hands touch the round stomach and feel the kick The eyes that have seen so much cry with the water she starts to rinse her face And refuses to give her up And we close our eyes And you close your eyes 03. Strange Machines [With The Metropool Orchestra] Music by The Gathering Lyrics by Anneke van Giersbergen
It has always been in the back of my mind
Dreaming about going to the corners of time I always wanted to fly in strange machines I wanna do centuries in a lifetime And feel it with my hands Touch the world war II and Cleopatra Flying... Could it be that my dream would come true Building a machine that would actually do What I want it to do Russian revolution, let's do that in one day Beethoven and Gershwin I think that would be o.k. More than anything I wanna fly in strange machines I wanna do centuries in a lifetime And see it with my eyes Watch Jesus rise, if he ever did Flying... I wanna do centuries in a lifetime And feel it with my hands Touch renaissance and Chaka Khan Flying... 04. The May Song Music by The Gathering Lyrics by Anneke van Giersbergen
