The Rio Grande - Mike Oldfield

We’re homeward bound across the blue sea. Going home. We’re homeward bound across the blue sea, And we’re come from the old country. And away, love, away. Going home.

The Deep Deep Sound - Mike Oldfield

Hush now baby made a start, There’s a jewel in your heart And a star that shines for you, Watching everything you do. Don’t you cry though it may seem You were born into a dream. There’s another race to run, You were not the only one. Standing in the morning sun, Waiting though it […]

Rite Of Man - Mike Oldfield

So now we went our merry, merry way To break the life monastic. There’s one two words i’d like to say As we trip the light fantastic. To hold a course and forge a way. Here’s to another folk cliché. Do not dismay tra-lu-ai-lay, Speak up for the right of man. [ chorus ] Speak […]

Pictures In The Dark - Mike Oldfield

Follow the light that glows Through your bedroom window. Tonight, tonight, the fading twilight. There’s a hollow deep in the woods Where you know you’re crazy To go, to go, not even meant to know There are… Pictures in the dark, i see all around. Voices calling underground And i’m watching the stars since the […]

Peace On The Earth - Mike Oldfield

In a manger lying Silent stars are shining Rest in dreamless slumber Eyes around all in wonder Heaven and earth are turning Round the hearth fire is burning Sheltered from the cruel storm Peace on earth is new born
