Lyrics for Cecil Taylor

Heaven and earth collide May the spirit's guide be the one I navigate tonight Well I'm just another hardened set of eyes Looking for a miracle Never the twain shall meet Not even Jesus and al-Salam upon the street So now violence and intolerance Disappear as energy Completely alone I remember the story We all see the thunderbolt We all feel the glory It moves underneath us The river - the blood of our heart It's been there from the Start... Strangers and old friends arrive Cecil Taylor's on the White House lawn tonight Still now hope it travels wide Uncertain times Listen for the miracle... Heaven and earth collide May the spirit's guide be the one I navigate tonight Well I'm just another hardened set of eyes Looking for a miracle ... When completely alone I remember the story We all see the thunderbolt We all feel the glory It moves underneath us The river - the blood of our heart It's been there from the Start... Start... Start... Start...
