From the recording 10. Do You Want The You

This song started out as two separate songs that later got merged into one. This song has a kind of musical 'round' in it. However, instead of the same melody starting up at different times, the same melody is sung at two different speeds at the same time. This is another one of my "mystical rock" songs.

DO YOU WANT THE YOU

Wandering, by the coast, looking for a sign.
Mountains, his rising hosts, placed there by design?
This time, a lonely soul, with a hopeful goal,
inside.

Do you want the you, that you want to be, to be the you, that’s with me?
Do you want the you, that you want to be,
to be the you that’s with me?

Visions, come from above, so he starts to climb.
Seeking, eternal love, so sure this time.
But in finding, who’s found?
In searching, who’s let down,
in heaven?

I want the me, that I want to be, to be the me, that’s with you.
I want the me, that I want to be, to be the me,
that’s with you.

High up, on a peak, with flowing auburn hair.
Who, he, must seek, will she still be there?
Oh, exhultation, you all have invitations,
to dare.

Do you want the you, that you want to be, to be the you, that’s with me?
Do you want the you, that you want to be,
to be the you, that’s with me?

Laughter, blows in the wind, when we cry.
Seekers, never let in, the answers,
they’re inside.

Oh, exhumation, you all have invitations,
to die.
Oh, jubilation, you all have invitations,
to fly.

Do we want the us, that we ought to be, to be the us, that’s to be?
Do we want the us, that we ought to be?
Do we want the us
that’s to be?
