V. Put Your Arms Around Me

I have waited for this moment for what seems like nine lifetimes
You will never be closer than you are now

Put your arms around me
Put your arms around me
Wrap your love around me
Now we can dance

After all we've endured to be finally reunited
Standing naked as the moonlight hallows the ground

Put your arms around me
Put your arms around me
Wrap your love around me
Now we can dance (we can dance)

VI. Altar of Kauaian Six String (Todd's Solo)

I think I'm going out of my head

VII. Out of My Head (Lone Vibes)

Put your arms around me
Put your arms around me
Wrap your love around me
In my, my mind, ah..., oooh...

Think I'm going out of my head
Boy I think I'm going out of my head
Yeah I think I'm going out of my head
Think I'm going out of my, oooh..., ah...

Now we can dance (we can dance)
Yee, hee, hee
Think I'm going out of my head
Ooh...

VIII. Rundt Rundt Rundt

Now we can dance (we can dance)
Put your arms around me
Put your arms around me
Wrap your love around me

Ooh...

Put your arms around me [through vocoder]
Put your arms around me [through vocoder]
Wrap your love around me [through vocoder]
Now we can dance [through vocoder]

Ooh...

Put your arms around me [through vocoder]
Put your arms around me [through vocoder]
Wrap your love around me [through vocoder]
Now we can dance [through vocoder]
Now we can dance [through vocoder]

La, la, la, la

I have waited for this moment for what seems like nine lifetimes
You will never be closer than you are now

Put your arms around me
Put your arms around me
Wrap your love around me
La, la, la, la

Yeah I think I'm going out of my head
Think I'm going out of my head
Ooh..., ah....

IX. Wave of Heavy Red (Disko-Nektar)

Ooh..., ah...
Ooh..., ah...

We are dangling by a filament
We are wafting in the wind
Would you tether me before I blow away?

Put your arms around me
Put your arms around me
Wrap your love around me
Now we can dance
Now we can dance (we can dance)
Now we can dance (we can dance)

Put your arms around me [through vocoder]
Put your arms around me [through vocoder]
Now we can dance [through vocoder]
Now we can dance [through vocoder]

Think I'm going out of my head
Think I'm going out of my head
Yeah I think I'm going out of my head
Think I'm going out of my head
Ooh.., ah...

Ooh, think I'm going out of my, ooh..., ah...
Yee, ah..., la la la la

After all we've endured to be finally reunited
Put your arms around me
Put your arms around me

X. T.H.E. Golden Triangle

instrumental with garbled transmissions

(some backward vocals)

XI. Ravende Gal (Full Circle)

Um anyway, I thought we, ought to get, a, together, because um, because
Whatever we do to be something that, you know, draws the audience in
And doesn't leave them scratching their feet
You know, wondering what's going on
You know that has some parts in there that they could, they could,
That are simple enough, you know, for them, to sing along to
Or at least know a little bit
I don't know how that fits in with the overall context
In other words, I think that's one thing that we need to figure out

We're pretty much open to the ending
Maybe breaking out of the chord structure
Or just getting into the primitive thing or something
I think [???]
I think [???]
I realize that
We should probably get on the same page and figure out a couple of things
One is an actual method for getting this finished
You know that's true
A deadline seems like a good idea
I am assuming that since you guys will eventually get together
I got the impression that after leaving side A [???]
[???]

Come awake, come awake, open up your eyes
Take a walk down the hall, down your car outside
In the noise and the street, people pass you by
And the sound and the heat starts to get you high

Look around, now look down, you are on the rise
See the curve of the earth under starlit skies
And within you're beginning to spin as the time flies by
And within you're beginning to spin
And within you're beginning to spin

XII. Ohr.. Um.. Am.. Amen (Aftermath)

Ooh... ah...

I have waited for this moment for what seems like nine lifetimes
You will never be closer than you are now

Put your arms around me
Wrap your love around me
