Yes The Revealing Science of God (Dance of the Dawn) with Lyrics in Description

Описание: Track 1 from their sixth album “Tales from Topographic Oceans” released in 1973 copyright Atlantic Records. It was recorded at Morgan Studios in a suburb of London. While on tour in Japan promoting “Close to the Edge”, Jon Anderson was influenced by an Indian Yogi’s writings and created the idea of a concept album based on four foundational texts from the Hindu religion. He and guitarist Steve Howe took the idea and ran with it, spending long nighttime sessions writing the lyrics and music. They were ultimately able to sell the concept to the rest of the band, although keyboardist Rick Wakeman did not approve. He felt the album’s concept was too complicated and the songs were too long to have the proper impact. After this tour was completed, he quit the band on his twenty-fifth birthday, the same day his third solo album “Journey to the Center of the Earth” debuted at No. 1 in England. This album received mixed reviews, being seen at the time by some as a lengthy exercise in progressive rock self-indulgence with highs and lows throughout, or as in some retrospective reviews, a seminal masterpiece for the ages. It reached No. 1 in the United Kingdom, No. 4 in Canada & No. 6 on the Billboard chart and achieved Gold status early the following year. Written by Jon Anderson, Steve Howe, Chris Squire, Rick Wakeman & Alan White and produced by Eddy Offord & Yes. RIP Chris Squire. Featuring:

Dawn of a light lying between the silence and soul sources
Chased amid fusions of wonder
In moments hardly seen, forgotten
Coloured in pastures of chance, dancing leaves cast spells of challenge
Amused but real in thought
We fled from the sea whole

Dawn of thought transferred through moments of days and the
Searching of revealing corridors of time provoking
Memories disjointed but with purpose
Craving penetrations offer links with the self-instructor's
Sharp and tender love as we took to the air
A picture of distance

Dawn of our power we amuse re-descending
As fast as misused expression
As only to teach love as to reveal passion chasing late into corners
And we danced from the ocean

Dawn of love sent within us colours of
Awakening among the many want to follow
Only tunes of a different age
As the links span our endless caresses for the
Freedom of life everlasting

(Talk to the sunlight caller)
(Soft summer mover, distance mine)

Called out a tune but I never saw the face
Heard but not replaced
I ventured to talk but I
Never lost my place

Cast out a spell rendered for the light of day
Lost in light's array, I ventured to see as the
Sound began to play

(What happened to this song we once knew so well?)
(Signed promise for moments caught within the spell)
(I must have waited all my life for this)
(Moment, moment, moment, moment)

The future poised with the splendour just begun
The light we were as one and crowded through
Curtains of liquid into sun

And for a moment when our world had filled the skies
Magic turned our eyes to feast on the
Treasure set for our strange device

(What happened to wonders we once knew so well?)
(Did we forget what happened, surely we can tell)
(We must have waited all our lives for this)
(Moment, moment, moment, moment, moment, moment)

(Starlight, movement)
(Reasons, release forward)
(Tallest rainbow)
(Sun shower seasons)
(Life flower reasons)

They move fast, they tell me
But I just can't believe that I can feel it
There's someone to tell you amid the challenge
We look around in unison with you

Getting over overhanging trees, let them rape the forest
Thoughts would send our fusion clearly to be home
Getting over wars we do not mean or so it seems so clearly
Sheltered with our passion, clearly to be home

(They move fast, they tell me)
(But I just can't believe they really mean to)
(There's someone to tell you)
(And I just can't believe our song will leave you)

(Skyline teacher, warland seeker)
(Send out poison, cast iron leader)

And through the rhythm of moving slowly
Sent through the rhythm, work out the story
Move over glory to sons of old fighters past

Young Christians see it from the beginning
Old people feel it, that's what they're saying
Move over glory to sons of old fighters past

They move fast, they tell me
But I just can't believe they really mean to
There's someone to tell you
A course towards a universal season

(Getting over overhanging trees, let them rape the forest)
(They might stand and leave them, clearly to be home)
(Getting over wars we do not mean, we charm the movement suffers)
(Call out all our memories, clearly to be home)

(We've moved fast, we need love)
(A part we offer is our only freedom)

(What happened to this song we once knew so well?)
(Signed promise for moments caught within)
