Into my life
 
This is a strange flight
 
I'm taking
 
My true will
 
Carries me along
 
 
This is a soul dance
 
Embracing me
 
This is the first chance

Talking to you now
 
Telling you clearly
 
The fire still burns
 
 
Wisdom of ages
 
Rush over me
 
Heighten my senses
 
Enlighten me
 
Lead me on
 
Eternally
 
 
And the spirit of love
 
Is rising within me
 
Talking to you now
 
Telling you clearly
 
The fire still burns

you've got to give love
 
The world still turns
 
 
I'm talking to you now

Lyrics


Insight

This is an insight

Into my life

This is a strange flight

I'm taking

My true will

Carries me along


This is a soul dance

Embracing me

This is the first chance

To put things right

Moving on

Guided by the light


And the spirit of love

Is rising within me

Talking to you now

Telling you clearly

The fire still burns


Wisdom of ages

Rush over me

Heighten my senses

Enlighten me

Lead me on

Eternally


And the spirit of love

Is rising within me

Talking to you now

Telling you clearly

The fire still burns


I'm talking to you now

The fire still burns

Whatever you do now

you've got to give love

The world still turns


I'm talking to you now
