Starseed - Michael Woodford 2009

Verse 1
Woke up this morning, Felt the urge to do something
Heard the call of a beckoning voice
Tried to find a reason, For my inner transformaton
Then I knew I had to make a choice
Carry on this life, Based on fear and deep suspicion
Work all day for monetry gain
Or awaken to the fact, That I've got a real mission
Helping souls like you escape the pain

Chorus
I'm a Starseed
Come here to help you find your way
I'm a Starseed
Come here to guide you
Come here to show you the way

Riff 1

Verse 2
Reached out and touched your hand, Looked deep into your eyes
Saw confusion etched across your face
Told stories of our past, Why we're here, what we're doing
Why we've got to save this troubled race
Suddenly you realised, Why you felt so strange here
Why you couldn't understand this world
Everything is clear now, Life has got new meaning
Time to wake up, go and spread the word

Chorus
You're a Starseed
Come here to help me find my way
You're a Starseed
Come here to guide me
Come here to show me the way

Riff 2

Bridge
Lies and raw deception, Spin our lives with anger and fear
Time to re-awaken, Time to spread the message
Time for loving in the clear


Verse 3
Greed, inflated egos, Wealth and lust for power
Things that we see everyday
They have no real meaning, For our souls, our real being
Each of us must change our way
Our simple message to you, Is forget these worthless items
Reject all those feelings of fear
Embrace the warmth of love, Find yourself, and each other
While ascending to the pure and clear


Chorus
We are Starseeds
Come here to help you find your way
We are Starseeds
Come here to guide you
Come here to show you the way

Outro
I'm a Starseed
Come here to help you find your way
I'm a Starseed
Come here to show you the way

You're a Starseed
Come here to help me find my way
You're a Starseed
Come here to show me the way

We are Starseeds
Come here to help you find your way
We are Starseeds
Come here to show you the way

Well done Mike, another one wrapped up!!

It was treat to be part of this team, super performances by everyone!

Really like the rich vocal sound of this track, and the super mix by Argle.

The lyrics are super - its nice the way the lyric changes to "I", "you" and "we" for the choruses.

Cheers
Andy

PS - Mike/Argle - if you could post a wav or ape version up as well.

Great to have you on board again Andy... Argle did a fantastic mix, even without all the material he would have liked and a lot of credit has to go him for the great sound he's produced.

Love those pulsating bass lines you laid down down for this... many thanks Andy
