Climbing up on
Solsbury Hill
I could see the city light
Wind was blowing
time stood still
Eagle flew out
of the night
He was something
to observe
Came in close
I heard a voice
Standing stretching
every nerve
I had to listen
had no choice
I did not believe
the information
Just had to trust
imagination
My heart going
boom boom boom
"son" he said
"Grab your things
I've come to
take you home"
To keeping silence
I resigned
My friends would think
I was a nut
Turning water into wine
Open doors would
soon be shut
So I went
from day to day
Though my life
was in a rut
'Till I thought of
what I'd say
Which connection
I should cut
I was feeling part
of the scenery
I walked right out
of the machinery
My heart going
boom boom boom
"hey" he said
"Grab your things
I've come to
take you home"
Yeah back home
When illusion
spin her net
I'm never where
I want to be
And liberty
she pirouette
When I think that
I am free
Watched by
empty silhouettes
Who close their eyes
but still can see
No one taught them
etiquette
I will show another me
today I don't need
a replacement
I'll tell them what the
smile on my face meant
My heart going
boom boom boom
"hey," I said
"You can keep my things
they've come
to take me home"
So happy to have discovered Lucky Voice. We'd never tried karaoke before, but this is so much fun! So many great songs and so easy to use. Love it!

Easy to set up, entertains the little ones by day and the adults by night.
