In the Presence Of: I. Deeper II. Death of Ego III. True Beginner IV. Turn Around and Remember Songtext
von Yes

Deeper than every ocean
Deeper than every river
That′s what your presence brings to me
Revealing the words I listen
Seeing you in my silence
Learning I'm with you constantly
As I was before

If we were flowers we would worship the sun
So why not now?
This high is shining brightly
Brighter than before

As the door was open wide
There inside was a diamond chair
Where I sat when I was young
I wrote down the words
Only when the young at heart
Can enter the real world
This chance I′ve waited for
For you to see


If I had chances I would spend them with you
To hold you close and let your love surround me
Deeper than before

(Deeper than every ocean) And I know this love is real
(Deeper than every river) Realize this is meant to be
(That's what your eyes they say to me) You are listening to how I feel
So expectedly

(Brighter than every morning) From the ocean to the sky
(Beautiful as the sunset) Every river to the sea
(Nature surrounds me constantly) We can hear love constantly
This is for you and me

Turn around and come deeper now
So what happens when I touch you there
You feel the words roll over you (over you, over you)
Thinking of the better scenes, the memories
As everybody else just hasn't got the time
To help you anymore (anymore, anymore)


′Cause if the reason for the things that pleasure us
To please ourselves, not pressure us
To give our ego some pleasure time
Can you imagine any reason
To know you′re only fooling yourself
And then you'll understand why
You′ll understand why

So if we choose to realize all existence is a dream
This perfect resume to you, from me
Just had a tough time with magic
The death of ego, the moon
It was just coming through

Send me such a good time in a letter form, tell me
The pleasure, no pressure
Pure imagination in a metaphoric dream

I get amazed like a true beginner
I get amazed like a true believer
I get amazed when I see you there
And I come alive

I believe I'm a true beginner
I believe I′m a true beginner
In your arms I can see it all
I can see it all

If we were flowers we would worship the sun
So why not now? (so why not now?)
This light is burning brightly (this light is burning brightly)
Brighter than before (brighter than before)
Brighter than before (brighter than before)

Turn around and remember that
When it gets so low
As you finally hit the ground

Turn around and remember that
Now I'm standing tall
Standing on my sacred ground

Turn around and remember that
When it gets so low
As you finally hit the ground

Turn around and remember that
Now you′re standing tall
Standing on sacred ground
Standing on sacred ground
Standing on sacred ground

Turn around and remember that
When it gets so low
As you finally hit the ground

Turn around and remember that
Now you're standing tall
Standing on sacred ground
Standing on sacred ground
Standing on sacred ground
