Slipstream Lyrics
We’re just like icebergs floating gently in the sea
Slowly we become what we once used to be
Icebergs look impressive Michelangelo would agree
There just drifting slowly melting into history
It really doesn’t matter if it doesn’t go to plan
For the One who carves the iceberg leaves his mark on ev’ry man
Wind and storms drive us all onto shifting sands
Ev’ry living thing is shaped by his hands
No one live forever you know
Do you know eventually where you’ll go?
Over the horizon with what’s left to show
No one lives forever you know, you know, you know
Know, know, know, know, know
We’re not like those icebergs floating to the bitter end
Drifting ever onwards we can’t comprehend
The answer might be out their drifting in the waves
Sail on through he darkness and onto better days
No one live forever you know
Do you know exactly where you’ll go?
Over the horizon with nothing left to show
No one lives forever you know, you know, you know
You gotta a choice to drift aimlessly
Believe in every thing you see on that screen
Hoping it all comes to you easily.
No one live forever you know
Do you know exactly where you’ll go?
Over the horizon with nothing left to show
No one lives forever you know, you know, you know
Know, know, know, know, know

Augustine lived it on up
His life heading downstream
Took time to take stock
And stopped just before a ravine
Oh he thought it was such a dream
All my life a radiant sunbeam
Then came the debtors had to come clean
Gotta change my scene, start a new regime
Stay in the slipstream there’s always a slipstream
If you stay right behind me you can ride the storm if you stay
Augustine circled around started heading upstream
Challenging relentless winds he was near out of steam
Oh he thought it was such a dream
All my life a radiant sunbeam
Then came the debtors had to come clean
Gotta change my scene, start a new regime
Stay in the slipstream there’s always a slipstream
If you stay right behind me you can ride the storm if you stay
Heavenly choirs of angels were singing
He look up and saw wild geese in formation,
heading for the sun, heading for the sun
Stay in the slipstream there’s always a slipstream
If you stay right behind me you can ride the storm if you stay

Ooo what a beautiful day (almost passed me by)
Rolling green hills, brilliant blue skies
Didn’t at first see this getaway
Open highway you by my side
After the cool of the night
The air is so warm against my skin
Cause it is you, cause it is you
You’re my summertime, my summertime
Walking barefoot anywhere I like (the footpath is so hot)
Lazing by the pool sipping soda and lime
Christmas trees lights buzzing the nigh
Good food, good wine anytime I like
I know I can get somewhat down
I count my blessing since you’re around
Cause it is you, cause it is you
You’re my summertime, my summertime
You’re my heat in the day
You’re my breeze to lighten my way
So will you stay, will you stay
Cause it is you, cause it is you
You’re my summertime, my summertime

Black night, bright day
Doesn’t matter any which way
Blood reds, blue blacks
I’m the canvass on which you play
Do ——-
Mallet blows, chisels cuts
Like a stone chosen to be struck
Yeah it hurts, don’t I know
Fate and folly are the sculptures blows
Do ——-
I’m just a lump of clay sittin’ on the floor
I’m just an empty frame hangin’ on the wall
I’m just a block of wood cut out from a tree I need you –
to shape a better me…. to shape a better me….
Your hands, your face
Fashion me for a better place
You move in mysterious ways
Can’t wait till the veil’s stripped away

I don’t know what I’m gonna do about you, about you
I can’t shake this _ feeling I got about you, about you
Lying awake _ night after night without you, without you
It’s a nightmare that never ends for it’s you, for it’s you
Cause you’re such a wild child
Wild child, wild child
You got me searching _ lonely streets for you, for you
Mile after mile _ through the darkness, for you, for you
Right from the start I thought I could tame you
I did what I could without trying to shame you
How stupid was to think, I could change you

Nothing can
Nothing can
Nothing can hold you back
All alone in a crowded room
Caught up in my digital world
Must stay connected
or be neglected
Twitter, twitter like me on Facebook
Snap chat gotta streak 100
Instagram is the rage
cause of all my faves
Nothing can hold me
Nothing can hold me
Nothing can hold me back
What the freak I have a new rival
His hits on You Tube have gone viral
Got like a 1000 friends
He’s really starting to trend
Nothing can hold him
Nothing can hold him
Nothing can hold him back
Come to me let me show you
In me alone is your validation
Rest in me this is your consolation
You are mine, you are mine
You are mine, you are mine
(millions of people living the lie
There’s more to you than meets the eye)
Nothing can hold me
Nothing can hold you
Nothing can us back

There’s a higher ground
Not trying to excuse us
Where we will stand so tall
Let them accuse us
We can be forgiven if we cannot comprehend
We’re on this path to heaven though we cannot see the end
See the end, see the end…
We can stand forever
If we stick together (now)
(They can try to beat us
They cannot defeat us)
We lived the perfect storm
It tried to break us
A chance to transform
So he can use us
We can stand forever
If we stick together (now)
(They can try to beat us
They will never defeat us)
We can stand forever
Because we’ve just stuck together
(They will never defeat, they will never defeat us)

Oooh … ooo (Rpt)
Now I see what I couldn’t see
Cause you’ve opened up my eyes
Now I know you’re the only one
The Rock that I can rely
Cause it’s you
Only you
You’re the one all these years
I’ve been searching for
At the time I didn’t know
At the time I was so blind
At the time I didn’t show
But you’re so crafty and kind
Its clear to me what I couldn’t be
You made me realise
What lies behind your steady gaze
You see inside my mind
Oooh … ooo (Rpt)
You’re my bright morning star (Rpt)

Today is a new day
A time to hope and dream
On yesterday’s sorrows
The door is sealed
Today is a fresh start
Into what can be
So don’t look back wishing
Things don’t bless me
To love like this
To love like this
To love like you
To live with no regrets
We all know – life can
Be messy and mean
Dish out some serious stuff
Hard to come out clean
To wallow in the mud
To get back on that horse
I could sing this song all day
Till my voice gets hoarse
So what’s it gonna be
You can’t change the past
Steal you mind away
Change your future fast
Today is a new deal
To look to you God
Hand to the wheel
So set your resolution
To live, life with no regrets
To live life with no regrets
To live…….life.

Mmm Party lights
Come on get out your party lights
Come on get out your party lights
Celebration – get up and dance
Celebration – feel a little romance
Celebration – let it all go
