Mike Oldfield - Man On The Rocks Lyrics
So you come to my world, I can show you
Where they lead to the footprints in the sand.
On the paths through the valleys and canyons,
To the veins in your arm, take my hand.
The black pearl, the fool on the hill.
I’m the gold at the end of the rainbow.
If I ask you to follow, you will.
So you come to my world to find freedom.
Give you wings to the stars, you can fly.
Bring you hope and a dream to believe in
As you float through the dark, crimson sky.
I’m the man on the rocks on the island,
I’m the hope in the hearts of the helpless,
The choir where no-one will sing.
There’s a trail out of the canyon,
There’s a new life waiting out there!
It’ll take you home, out of this chasm,
Where there’s blue sky sunlight to share.
So you come to my world to escape it all,
And you’re running from the dragons and the fools!
Through the dark, empty caverns deep in your soul,
Chasing the tiger, the jewels.
I’m the the man on the rocks on the island.
I’m the beggar, the loser, the cheat!
So now you come to the gates for redemption,
With a ball and chain at your feet.
There’s a trail out of the canyon,
There’s a new life waiting out there!
It’ll take you home, out of this chasm,
Where there’s blue sky, sunlight to share!

one of the songs that will accompany me till my death.
This Album deserved more recognition and promotion.
They should have taken it out of Studio and perform live concert around the world.
Song writing, arrangement, instrumentation and vocals are brilliant.
From the creators of Sailing, now they bring to us the Man on Rocks in the Island... LOL
thank you for this song, especially, Mr. Oldfield.

Freddie Mercury 2019.....
Der Sohn von Freddie Mercury zusammen mit Mike Oldfield? Why not?
Curious to see that M.Oldfield uses budget friendly Yamaha HS8/80 studio monitors in his studio
They are good enough to make great music.
Luke Spiller is brilliant! The ghost of Freddie lives on!
What a phenomenal sound these two guys make!
Great song, great harmony, amazing vocals & an equally amazing duet.
Mike Oldfields legendary capability is well known - has been for decades - but I feel that with Luke Spiller on board also, Mike O's songs I feel, could all become more current & popular with the "X Factor pop & rock" generation of teens today.
Perfect.
Good very very GOOD....CONGRATULATIONS....AMAZING....
j adore
I love Mike since 14 years old .... I am 54 years old, but..sorry I don 't like it.. I prefer to listen right now Amarok or Bonnie Tyler
SUPER, SUPER, SUPER. Trafia do SERCA ten Utwór. Śliczny.

This song could be an inspiration for an new fantasy movie :-D.
Luke is music
mike oldfield era el de antes.
Luke Spliller is the best new voice on the scene right now. Period!!!!
Luke is the most beautyful man in the world!

MO has a DNA that can compose intriguing pieces of music that captivate you and put you in a sphere, making you forget everything that depresses you. Everyday life, stress, worries ..... everything is forgotten for those moments and you can recharge your batteries

Like any man who is truly rich, materially and morally, Mike Oldfield does not need superfluous ostentation, merely wearing an old shirt.
Omg what a voiceeee 😍😍

Electric guitar does not go with video.
Très très belle chanson et musique j'adore THANKS
