Kyrie eleison
Kyrie eleison
Kyrie

The wind blows hard against this mountain side
Across the sea into my soul
It reaches into where I cannot hide
Setting my feet upon the road

My heart is old, it holds my memories
My body burns a gemlike flame
Somewhere between the soul and soft machine
Is where I find myself again

Kyrie eleison, down the road that I must travel
Kyrie eleison, through the darkness of the night
Kyrie eleison, where I'm going, will you follow?
Kyrie eleison, on a highway in the light

When I was young I thought of growing old
Of what my life would mean to me
Would I have followed down my chosen road
Or only wished what I could be

Kyrie eleison, down the road that I must travel
Kyrie eleison, through the darkness of the night
Kyrie eleison, where I'm going, will you follow?
Kyrie eleison, on a highway in the light

Analysis: if i knew what the fuck "eleison" meant i might be help out a bit here, but sadly i don't have a clue. This doesn't prevent me from bellowing this classic from the shower some mornings. A- (only cause i don't know what "eleison" is)

Not much different than singing 'i am un chien andalusia' or 'Vamos a jugar por la playa'. I should have known what the second one meant since I spent 8 months in Puerto Rico in 1988. But I used to sing 'Momma said, 'Ooh that boys on fire.' Silly American.

I say, sing loud and proud just don't sing in my ear at a concert.

It took me awhile, but I finally figured out what song you were talking about. (I don't have access to youtube at work.) I always thought he said 'Carry E and lays'.
