about
Heaven Is In Your Ears is in a nest of 5-rhythms, from the biggest to the small. It’s in the South Indian tala Jhampa (10 beats). Too much can be said about this tune. In short: influence from J S Bach (crab canon), South Indian cycles and crossrhythms, and Balinese kotekan interlocking.
lyrics
Heaven is in your ears, and you hear when you want to
but you only close your eyes to stop the cries,
the cries of the world
a bell will tell your tongue to sing what you saw
Tell your tongue to sing, the ring will tell your tongue to sing,
the ring will tell your tongue to sing, the ring will tell
singing in the ringing of a bell
Close your eyes to stop the cries, you close your eyes to stop the cries,
you close your eyes to stop the cries you heard
cries are only eyes, only the world
Heaven when you hear is in your heaven
when you hear is in your
heaven when you hear is in your ears
heaven is whenever you can hear
I will ring a bell so you will hear
cries of heaven tell your tongue to sing
what is in your ear and in your eye
The sound of your life will enter you like sunlight
the wounds of your loving will listen
their toll will teach you to sound like sunlight
Telling will touch, the telling will touch, the telling will touch
the telling will touch the life
listen to your life
Toll will teach you, the toll will teach you,
the toll will teach you to sound
sunlight into your wound
Loving enter, the loving enter, the loving enter
the loving enter the light
love the wound in your life
Light enter in the wound
wound will teach the toll of life
telling the love of sound
I can only open your eyes, you must do all the seeing
I can only open your ears, you must do the hearing
A bell will tell your tongue to sing what you saw
but you only close your eyes to stop the cries,
the cries of the world
heaven is in your ears and you hear when you want to
