4.Let Joy And Innocence Prevail

Performed:Grace Jones
Written:Hans Zimmer/Trevor Horn

I tell you of a girl her husband was a soldier
gone to war in some strange country far away
no word had come to her
but the rumour of great battles fought
and dying in their thousands and the world full of fear
as the day would turn to evening she would a pure white candle
and place it in a window bright from where it could be seen
as she placed it in the window softly ? and ?
she said let this burning candle be a beacon
let joy and innocence prevail
let joy and innocence prevail
believe that luck will never fail
let joy and innocence prevail

and one night, asleep, she dreamed she saw her husband
fall in a great white cavilry charge
and waking in tears she saw the candle burning in the window
she still had hope
and through the window a man in the distance
but has he came closer, she saw he was a stranger

the stranger said I bring a message from a general
your captain has been wounded, his life hangs by a thread
he calls out your name and he wishes you to come to him
but the journey is a hard road and you may be afraid

and she laughed and said no road could be too hard for I am
fearless
a captain and a husband I have gained this bright new day
and she said with all her heart she would fly to be beside hik
and her love would heal his wounds restore him to her
let joy and innocence prevail
let joy and innocence prevail
believe that luck will never fail
let joy and innocence prevail

let joy and innocence prevail
let joy and innocence prevail
believe that luck will never fail
let joy and innocence prevail

let joy and innocence prevail

If I cannot bring you comfort
then at least I bring you hope
for nothing is more precious
than the time we have and so
we all must learn from small misfortune
count the blessings that are real
let the bells ring out for christmas
at the closing of the year

If I cannot bring you comfort

then at least I bring you hope

then at least I bring you hope.....

10.The Mirror Song

Performed:Thomas Dolby with Robin Williams and Joan Cusac as
'Steve And Yolanda'
Written:Trevor Horn/Bruce Wooley

Memories of things that never happened
these are always the hardest to forget
all the old friends and the loved ones
these are the people you haven't even met
looking forward into the old days
looking back at what there will be
there's no reality it's just an illusion
there's no real sanity just plain confusion

how do you feel?
well I don't know just how I feel
all I know that I love you girl (what is real)
it's so real, so real, surreal

here we go

there is no single circumstance I never took a final chance
I made it something that you can see and touch forever
I always looked the same from every angle and never cast a
shadow
that would change the way you thought about your very being
that what what you were seeing would always be
would always be
would always be the truth

how do you feel?
well I don't know just how I feel
all I know that I love you girl (what is real)
it's so real, so real, surreal
it's so real, so real, surreal
it's so real, so real, surreal
ooh it's so real, so real, surreal
oh all right ahhh!
well I don't know just how I feel

'We have a tradition of whimsy here at Zevo toys.
Dad began that tradition with Milton the Friendly Elephant
and it carries all the way through the new line.'

there is no single circumstance I never took a final chance
I made myself a thing that you could see and touch forever
you always looked the same from every angle and never cast a
shadow
that would change the way I felt about about your very being
that what what you say would always be
would always be
would always be
would always be the truth

how do you feel?
well I don't know just how I feel
all I know that I love you girl
it's so real, so real, surreal
all the seasons I have spoken
all the reasons I have rhymed
for the state of incandescence
just imagine what is real
simply then the words were spoken
just imagine what is real

what is real
what is real
