Emerson, Lake & Palmer - The Sage Lyrics






I carry the dust of a journey
That cannot be shaken away
It lives deep within me
For I breathe it every day

You and I are yesterdays answers
The earth of the past come to flesh
Eroded by times rivers
To the shapes we now possess.

Come share of my breath and my substance
And mingle our streams and our times
In bright infinite moments
Our reasons are lost in our rhymes.

    Progressive Rock was the natural next step for a lot of musicians in the 1970's, just as Jazz was in the 1950's.

  10. A.... O....

    Nothing to say, just listen

  11. N.... M....

    Beauty, creativity, daring, skill. And the audience listened. I miss those days.

  12. R.... ....

    and nowadays people like lil' pump were called artist...oh the irony...

  13. S.... N....

    Weep not for the going of Greg and Keith, rejoice that you lived at the same time they created this music with the blessed Carl Palmer.

  14. L.... R....

    I am so transfixed I almost forgot to comment. Love this melodious song. EL&P always surprises. Thank you!

  15. B.... H....

    So beautiful and one of my favorites. Greg Lake was such a talented guitarist!! Truly wonderful. Keith and Carl were equally talented. But Greg was always so under rated as a guitarist, bassist, songwriter and producer. Look at him play this piece. This isn't simple!! It takes a musician of amazing talent to play it. Not to mention he has a beautiful choirboy voice and was extremely easy on the eyes!!

  16. W.... S....

    When was the event?

  17. R.... F....

    Lead me from tortured dreams,
    Childhood themes of nights alone,
    Wipe away endless years,
    Childhood tears as dry as stone.

    From seeds of confusion,
    Illusions darks blossoms have grown.
    Even now in furrows of sorrow,
    The dance still is sung.

    My life's course is guided,
    Decided by limits drawn,
    On charts of my past days,
    And pathways since I was born.

    I carry the dust of a journey,
    That cannot be shaken away,
    It lives deep within me,
    For I breathe it every day.

    You and I are yesterday's answers,
    The earth of the past came to flesh,
    Eroded by Time's rivers,
    To the shapes we now possess.

    Come share of my breath and my substance,
    And mingle our stream and our times.
    In bright, infinite moments,
    Our reasons are lost in our rhymes.

    Doubles faces dark defense,
    Talk too loud but talk no sense, Yeah I see those smiling eyes, Butter us up with smiling lies.

    Talk to creatures raise the dead, Fate you know sure got fed, Trained apart from houses of stone,
    Hour of horses pick the bone.

    Come forth, from love spire
    Born in life's fire,
    Born in life's fire.
    Come forth, from love's spire.

    In the burning, all are yearning,
    For life to be.
    And the pain will (must) be gain, New life !

    Stirring in, salty streams,
    And dark hidden seams,
    Where the fossil sun gleams.

    They were, sent from (to) the gates,
    Ride the tides of fate,
    Ride the tides of fate.
    They were, sent from (to) the gates.

    In the burning of our yearning,
    For life to be.

    There's no end to my life,
    No beginning to my death,
    Death is life !

    Greg Lake has the voice of an angel. In the collective of E.L.P. there is no weak link, each member is superb in their own field of musical instruments. There is no other band who comes near the perfection this trio created. Sadly missed R.I.P. Greg and Keith.

    L.... J....

    Agreed... but RUSH is a trio of equally talented members. my 2 favorite bands.

    誰もがキースの凄まじさにELPの存在意義があると言っているときに、なぜか私は、Gregのボーカルに酔いしれていました。14歳では当然KingCrimzonの存在すら知らなかったのに…。
    マイナーノートのバラードが心地良かったのか、英語の発音が聴きやすかったからなのか、もう定かではありませんが?!とにかく好きでした。

    +されど翔 さんコメント有難うございます。

    私もグレッグ氏のボーカルが大好きです。
    亡くなられたということで、とても残念です。
