D F Temperate waters C G Blue water walkways D F paths through the darkness C G dappled with light D Fv C G Blue and gold, pink and green D Fv C G The prettiest symbols you ever seen Blue water angels singing with light Blue water dolphins schools in flight Hands in the darkness waving in air Smiles through the lightlines without a care Lemurian turquoise Pink blue and green Communing with angels the King and Queen Golden light graces the shrimps and the turtles sea horses dancing a flying fish hurtles through the air the feeling ways flying We are all living and nothing is dying Lemurian temples laid for a feast the garden of magic the sacred beast white unicorn wanders horn of gold everything's warm here nothing is cold Women are important the female within is beloved in all and honoured as twin to the man inside who is no longer afraid that he is not useful in the contribution he made. Love one another be equal within no fear of conflict let us begin to meet one another on an equal ground no more fear of reactions the peace we've found is peace within the lasting kind and it reflects through our world for all time Lemurian people relate from within inner man, woman, and child, is the place to begin Children are laughing all understand the value of loving in this magical land You hold my hands we spin around golden capes flying golden crowns Lemurian loving all understand the value of giving in this magical land Sun through the window golden light feeding on chocolates the plate so white Lemurian lovers holding hands Lemurian rulers of this golden land Lemurian dreaming dreams me again Lemuria's reaching for this world of men The time has come to heal the wounds The time has come when we will soon be together as woman and man within ourselves and the inner child can be loved and play feel safe and free in the new Lemuria Where all is happy. Repeat verse 1 and 2.

The Fall by Jelila In the beginning was The Fall The call to place a wall Within every one of us Rehearsing the blues. Stopping the ‘blast from the past’ Yet lowering the mast. So we could no longer step over To meet each other – Brother and sister aghast At the gap between us Ever widening Fear did not endear us – One to the other And it was the unjust cause Of many wars. Of attrition, Of guns and fighting No more delighting in our inner being No more seeing Of relaxing dreams, pleasing plans and schemes Between the woman and man within Just hating and inner bear baiting. Tiralee tiree Time to relax and be free Tiralee tiree Time to relax and be me All that I am, woman and man, be free It’s time to take down the banner Be a new ‘town planner’ within Take down the mast at last – Break through the wall that’s Held us in thrall for so long Sing a new song of ‘compare and contrast’ Rather than ‘compete’ Belong together Be complete within Let us begin To sing a new story - A glory of new love within Let us win the fight Against no mercy Open the purse strings The coinage of ‘the twin’ Brother and sister in us To meet to greet - no fuss – No longer fighting to be love in each other’s eyes Delight begin again. Tiralee tiree – women and men Begin again Tiralee tiree – women and men Begin again, Begin again, begin again. Words & Music By © Jelila (Angela Torrington) 2006. All Rights Reserved.

Me by Jelila Sung by: Hurt Girl in Lemurian Dreaming musical Time to know Time to understand The things I’ve suffered at your hand Time to let go – get going Time to be free Time to find peace Time to get up off my knees Time to say ‘goodbye’ Time to say ‘hi’ To a new way of being, A new way of feeling - freeing myself Time to exhilarate – to breathe To know it’s not too late Time to design my own fate Time to be me, Time to be free How could I have known What all this would have shown me? If only I’d have known before Then I would have known me (Hurt Girl & Domineering Father sing these last 2 verses together) I’ve never known such a feeling as this before I’ve never been shown the way out, the door Now I can walk – I can leave – or I can just stay and be free It’s up to me! Now I understand What it means to be a man Now I understand What it means To be me. Words & Music By © Jelila (Angela Torrington) 2006. All Rights Reserved. Singapore 5.6.06 Note: In this song, ‘Hurt Girl’ and ‘Domineering Father’ have reached some resolution about how it feels to be a man – and a father - in a more positive way. Sung by Hurt Girl – but perhaps Domineering Father comes in with some lines.

The Land Of Milk And Honey by Jelila F C The land of milk and honey G D is a lovely place I’ve found in the land of love and money I’m layin on the ground F Em G A doo da de de Doo da de deh Do da deh de doo da dah (repeat) (or, Em base 1 and top 2 strings and up a fret and alternate) The land of milk and honey I’m sitting on a mound here’s the biggest pile of cash a sitting on the ground The land of milk and honey I can see for miles The land of milk and honey it comes in many styles The land of milk and honey take from what you see the land of milk and honey is gushing forth from me Walkin in the outback a dollar in my hand I laugh to see you smiling In this the promised land Organise your tinctures Let your rattle roll Mixing up your snakebite In the night we lose control… (do do do do do…) Dancing round the campfire The wind sings wild and free The spirit of the desert Is flying inside me Words & Music By © Jelila (Angela Torrington) 2006. All Rights Reserved. 19.04.06 Singapore. Note: This is the finale song of Lemurian Dreaming Musical - where the raggle taggle yet now, resolved, band of Hurt Girl, Domineering Father, Mother, and Higher Self - and everyone else, including members of the audience - go off into the sunset with their new more positive mindset.

The Argument by Jelila (dialogue from Lemurian Dreaming musical) (Father:) You should never have given us this information! Women are dangerous! (aside, along with lead male higher self figure, who agrees) I’m afraid that I’m not as powerful, or as important as she is And... I’m afraid of my own feminine power I’d better put her down (the other Father figures join in) Down, Down, Down Down, Down, Down We’ll never listen to you again! (Mother) Crying, Sobbing Sound (Father) Oh my God! I’m afraid I shouldn’t have listened to her! I’m afraid – I’m wrong! I’m not good enough! I’ve done the wrong thing There must be something wrong with me! We’ll never play around with these things again! It’s not safe to play! Work is more important! (father and male crowd chants:) Work Work Work Work Work Work! Words & Music By © Jelila (Angela Torrington) 2006. All Rights Reserved. Singapore 5.6.06 Note: This dialogue is where 'Father' - the inner masculine - first rejects the feminine. It's where the world gets turned over to thinking and doing - rather than feeling.

Ask Dialogue I by Jelila (Here, Hurt girl is with Neroli – the healer – who has been explaining how Hurt Girl can become more empowered – especially where Domineering Father is concerned). (Hurt Girl) Well things are going to be different from now on! First - I’m going to dream I’m gonna make up – plans and schemes Work out - what I want I’m going to Paris I’m going to France I’m going to dance in a purple dress I confess My hair’s a mess – I need a new one I’d better ask! I’m going to ask I’m going to say Please! Put it here for me Then I’m going to let go And fourth, I’m going to know It’s coming to me – (Hurt Girl addresses Neroli -) Did I get it right? Yes! Ask for what you want Don’t sit bemoaning your fate! Don’t be a victim Stage a sit-in before it’s too late And – ASK! Words & Music By © Jelila (Angela Torrington) 2006. All Rights Reserved.

Ask Dialogue II by Jelila (Hurt Girl) (Loud knocking) Dad! Ahem! I want you to Stop this and play with me now – please Dad It’s enough! Dad No - Enough of this stuff! Dad - Put your guns away Come and play Come and laugh Come and love! I’m going to ask! I’m going to Stop Wearing a mask That says – nothing! I’m going to but my oar in Stop life being so – boring! (Father is engaged in watching his dough being made – in his dough factory) (Father) Erm, Erm – but I don’t know – Will it all go on without me? I doubt they can manage without me I’m indispensible – most important you know (Hurt Girl) It’s incomprehensible how you can allow WORK to take over your life What you need is balance! (Father) Balance? (Hurt Girl) YES! (throwing out arms as if throwing off an assailant) Don’t you understand – you’ve got me in a stranglehold! Let – me – go I... I...
