Lyrics of State of Independence - Live at Pacific Amphitheatre, Costa Mesa, California, 6th August 1983 by Donna Summer with Mimi

verse

State of life, may I live, may I love
Coming out the sky, I name me a name
Coming out silver word for what it is
It is the very nature of the sound, the game

hook

Shablamidi, shablamida
Shablamidi, shablamida
Shablamidi, shablamida

verse

Siamese, Indonese
To Tibet treat the life
As a game, if you please, hey
Coming up Caribee such a freedom
Derives from a meditative state
Movin' on, believe that's it, call it magic
Third world, it is, I only guessed it

hook

Shablamidi, shablamida
Shablamidi, shablamida
Shablamidi, shablamida

hook

Woo!
Shablimidi, shablamida
Shablimidi, shablamida
Shablimidi, shablamida

verse

Shot to the soul the flame of Oroladian
The essence of the word
The state of independence

bridge

A time of peace, a time of joy
A time of love
When all men shall love one another
A time of grace

verse

Sounds like a signal from you
Bring me to meet your sound
And I will bring you to my heart
Love, like a signal you call
Touching my body, my soul
Bring to me, you to meet me here
(Shablimidi, shablamida)
(Shablimidi, shablamida)

verse

Home, be the temple of your heart
Home, be the body of your love
Just like holy water to my lips
Hey, hey
Yes, I do know how I survive
Yes, I do know why I'm alive
To love and be with you
Day by day, by day, by day

chorus

Time, time again, it is said
We will hear, we will see
See it all in His wisdom hear
His truth will abound the land
This truth will abound the land
This state of independence shall be
This state of independence shall be (c'mon let's sing it)

bridge

Yeah, yeah-e-yay, yeah-e-yo
Yeah-e-yay, yeah-e-yo
For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son

(Yeah-e-yeah) But shall have everlasting life
Hey, hey

Time, time again, it is said
We will hear, we will see

His truth will abound the land
This truth will abound the land
This state of independence shall be
This state of independence shall be

Yeah-e-yay, yeah-e-yo
Be the sound of higher love today
Yeah-e-yeah
Hey, hey (come on!)

We will hear, we will see
See it all in His wisdom hear
His truth will abound the land
This truth will abound the land
This state of independence shall be
This state of independence shall be

This state of independence shall be
This state of independence shall be
This state of independence shall be

Goodnight everyone, we love you!
Woo!
