lyrics

Heya heya
Heya heya
Heya heya

Open up your eyes and raise your hands
Today it is the day to dance your dance
Oh eternity is a certainty your labels
And your dreams won’t stand a chance

So if your heart is here and your eye is wide
Then come and step inside this holy fire
For your beyond this world the far and wide
The up and down the mask the seek and hide

So don’t hold on no
Let go now my darling have no fear
And get your grow on
What we’re looking for is
Nearer than near (Yeah my dear)

Ohhhh ohhhh ohh ohh ohh
It's nearer than near
Ohhhh ohhhh ohh ohh ohh
It's nearer than near
Ohhhh ohhhh ohh ohh ohh (Yeah)
It's nearer than near
Ohhhh ohhhh ohh ohh ohh (Heya heya)

Fill your heart up with this medicine
The doctor lives inside the patient's pain
Oh there’s more than Sunday’s reverend
It’s worth just standing naked in the rain (Well I would say)

It’s the gift of giving presence underneath
The tree where all life comes to be
If only we could see the apples seed
The one they put inside Adam and Eve (Oh mama please)

So don’t hold on no
Let go now my darling have no fear (Have no fear)
And get your grow on
What we’re looking for is
Nearer than near (Yeah my dear)

Ohhhh ohhhh ohh ohh ohh
It's nearer than near
Ohhhh ohhhh ohh ohh ohh
It's nearer than near
Ohhhh ohhhh ohh ohh ohh (Yeah)
It's nearer than near
Ohhhh ohhhh ohh ohh ohh (Heya heya)

Oh my darling won’t you sing a song of love (Sing a song of love)
Oh my darling won’t you sing (Jah yeah)
Oh my darling won’t you sing a song of love love love
Oh my darling won’t you sing

We’re standing stronger than the mountains rooting deeper than the trees
More than old emotions sailing off into the breeze
If truth is what we’re seeking and if truth is what we need
Then let our eyes be open to receive the love we be

Walking through the valley of the shadows of belief
Well let us oh good children be the change we wish to see
Hallelujah to the fire bringing forth the ancient seeds
It’s more than we imagine and beyond what we conceive

Ohh ohh ohh ohh ohh
Ohh ohh ohh ohh ohh
Ohh ohh ohh ohh ohh
It’s nearer than near
Ohhhh ohhhh ohh ohh ohh (Heya heya)
It's nearer than near
Ohhhh ohhhh ohh ohh ohh (Heya heya)
It's nearer than near
Ohhhh ohhhh ohh ohh ohh (Heya heyaaah)
It's nearer than near
Ohhhh ohhhh ohh ohh ohh (Heya heya)
It's nearer than near
Ohhhh ohhhh ohh ohh ohh (Heya heyaaah)
It's nearer than near
Ohhhh ohhhh ohh ohh ohh (Heya heeeyah)
It's nearer than near
Ohhhh ohhhh ohh ohh ohh (Heya heya)
It's nearer than near
Ohhhh ohhhh ohh ohh ohh (Yeah I wanna say)
It's nearer than near
Heya heya
It’s nearer than…
