Artist: Donna Summer
Track: State Of Independence
Lyrics
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 very nature of the sound, the game
Shablamidi, shablamida
Shablamidi, shablamida
Shablamidi, shablamida
Shablimidi, shablamida
Shablimidi, shablamida
Shablimidi, shablamida
Shot to the soul the flame of oroladian
Essence of the word
The state of independence
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
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
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
Say, yeah-e-yay, yeah-e-yo
Yeah-e-yay, yeah-e-yo
Be the sound of higher love today
Yeah-e-yeah (hey, hey)
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
This state of independence shall be
This state of independence shall be
This state of independence shall be
