Music Monday (Heaven & Earth, Side 1)

Back in July of this past year I was so excited that Yes was going to release a new album. It was the first brand new release I would be able to cover with my blog here. I had read that Benoit David was out as lead singer and the new singer was going to be Jon Anderson Davison, from the band Glass Hammer. The rest of the band (Squier, Howe, White, Downes) was the same. That album was Heaven & Earth.


Roger Dean y'all!

Believe Again

So I climbed to the height of a mountain line
Is there a vision here
Woven to touch
And all to capture light?
Surely the stream of consciousness
Flows to the sea
Where drifting I found
That I can be
I’m really getting to know the empty space
Beneath the surface of common days

There I knelt at the foot of an open sky
Is it by faith, not time
The sun does climb
To light the path for us?
And I can embrace where I’m going
Tomorrow has already found me

(chorus)
I used to believe in a love watching over
I want to believe in that love yet again
I lost my touch to handle with kid gloves
In the rough game of push and shove
I lost sight
I used to believe in your love
To be believed in
Once more tonight

Will you speak to me fathers?
Grant me the words
That one day I’ll be called to speak
And finally I am here understanding
The clear and constant page
Despite the shroud of material ways
Where dreaming the sound
A new found freedom

(chorus)

Surely this dream of consciousness
Flows to the sea
Where drifting I found
That I can be
I’m really getting to know the empty space
Beneath the surface of common days
Where dreaming the sound
A new found freedom

I used to believe in a love watching over
I want to believe in that love yet again
If it all comes down to push and shove
Remember to lift your heart above the fight
You can still receive the love
To be believed in

To turn wrong to right
Beyond all the pain and the strife
Ride the turning tide
Lift a strength deep inside
We can transform wrong to right

We can still receive the love
To be believed in
Once more tonight
