And You and I: A. Cord of Life, B. Eclipse, C. The Preacher the Teacher, D. Apocalypse

A man conceived a moment's answers to the dream
Staying the flowers daily, sensing all the themes
As a foundation left to create the spiral aim
As a movement regained and regarded both the same
All complete in the sight of seeds of life with you

Changed only for a sound of sight, the space agreed
Between the pictures of time behind the face of need
Coming quickly to terms of all expression laid
Emotion revealed as the ocean maid
A clearer future, morning, evenin', nights with you

Coins and crosses never know the fruitless worth
Cords are broken, locked inside the Mother Earth
They won't hide, hold, they won't tell you
Watching the world, watching all of the world
Watching us go by and you and I

Coming quickly to terms of all expression laid
As a foundation left to create the spiral aim
Emotion revealed as the ocean maid
A clearer future, morning, evening, nights with you

Sad preacher nailed upon the colored door of time
Insane teacher be there reminded of the rhyme
There'll be no mutant enemy we shall certify
Political ends, as sad remains will die
Reach out as forward tastes begin to enter you

I listened hard but could not see
Life tempo change out and inside me
The preacher trained in all to lose his name
The teacher travels, asking to be shown the same

In the end, we'll agree
We'll accept, we'll immortalize
That the truth of the man maturing in his eyes
All complete in the sight of seeds of life with you, with you

Coming quickly to terms of all expression laid
Emotion revealed as the ocean maid
A clearer future, morning, evenin', nights with you
