From the recording Messages - 2018 Album Release
Lyrics
Stevie’s superstition said the devil’s on his way
Carole asked why everyone’s so far away
Neil took us searching for a heart of gold
And Paul singing Let It Be never gets old
Every day’s an overdose of doom and gloom
So stop and smell the roses while they’re still in bloom
Get inside the poetry to be released
Take a trip on music and find some peace
Pressure - Danger - Pushing all the limits and raising hell
Whatcha gonna do when the clock strikes twelve
Where’re you gonna be – Who’re you gonna phone
Busted in the street and all alone
Haunted - Taunted - Making for the exits - Breaking down doors
Stepping on glass all over the floor
Temperature’s rising, can you feel the heat
We gotta get out – We gotta get free
Walking on water - Walking on air
Walking on the sunny side of the street – If it rains, well I don’t care
Walking on water – Light on my feet
I’m getting high on life – Into the music and out of the heat
Headlines - Deadlines - Gotta be first in singing the blues
People so obsessed with the real time news
Politics and lunatics – I wanna cry
Nothing makes sense – So don’t ask why
Slowing up and coming down – Drowning out the sights and sounds
Flying high and lying low – From Mozart to the Stones, I can just let go
Walking on water - Walking on air
Walking on the sunny side of the street – If it rains, well I don’t care
Walking on water – Light on my feet
I’m getting high on life – Into the music and out of the heat
Simon says to listen to the silent sounds
Brian talks of summer and getting around
Dylan spoke of changing times, and set us free
And Lennon just imagined how it all could be
This is how we make it in a world gone mad
Music is the medicine when things get bad
Lose yourself in song and escape the scene
Go walking on water with a sound machine
Walking on water - Walking on air
Walking on the sunny side of the street – If it rains, well I don’t care
Walking on water – Light on my feet
I’m getting high on life – Into the music and out of the heat
Walking on water – Walking on water – Walking on water
Whoa – Whoa – Whoa Whoa – Whoa – Whoa
