Steve Hillage Lyrics
"Solar Musick Suite: Sun Song (I Love Its Holy Mystery)/Canterbury Sunr"

The sun sings that he wants you all to know
What dawns behind our lunar sea
For since our very words were commandeered
We've explored the infinite circuitry

To try and find a scheme that gave us form
It burns our curiosity
And the answers that we sit and hope to find
Are living here inside of we

And so we set foot on the pathway
Between the pillars of black and white
To put aside the fears and doubts that hold this old world down
And open up our hidden store of light within

I saw all the stars that glimmer above me get off
Their pegs and gently flicker down
And all the people of the world dissolve into a sparkling dust
And through the holy vortex, for a second it did pass
And then it returned to what it used to be

And in the second of realization
The angel of the rainbow was watching us to see
If we were ready now to be a color in his harmony
Ah, I love its holy mystery

No need for sitting always on our own
Staring desperately at all of the problems of this world
We see mistakes maybe our high is blown
But sometimes you need the black to see the white
To find the core of love and beauty

So we can change our lead back into gold
And make the chemical wedding twixt ecstasy and concentration
We've got to learn to use our hearts and minds
As the building stones to make the new age world electric temple

So people look into each others eyes and gaze at them with certainty
We're gathered here today from all around to celebrate eternity
The spirit in the air is never far immersed in our totality
And the answers that we sit and hope to find
Are living here in side of we

Never let the seal of love be broken lest you act too suddenly
We're waiting for the energy to come in the age of electricity
Magnetic tape time swirling back and forth
A-faster than the eye can see
And the answers that we sit and hope to find
Are swimming in our mercury
