Jon Anderson - Unbroken Spirit Lyrics






No I never turned back
When I saw the distant call of fire
Never ran away
When I heard my heart was burning fast
Take away the first hello, take away the first hello
You never broke me

No I never turned back
When the fire descended on my soul
Never ran away
When I knew that I was getting old
I never turned back

Unbroken spirit of mine, never released
Unbroken spirit of my life

There'll be a time
When the clock runs faster than my life
There is a force
Deep within my heart, within my soul
There is a dream
That testifies I shall be saved
Forever and a day... forever and a day

This unbroken spirit of mine
Unbroken spirit of my life
Unbroken spirit, so blessed this life
Should never be broke
Should never be tied

There is a chord
That holds me close within my heart
There is a song
Redesigns my every move
There is a song
Telling me that everything will pass
Everything will pass
Everything
Everything

Unbroken spirit of love
Unbroken spirit of love
I'll remember
I'll remember

I'll remember
I'll remember
I'll remember
I'll remember

  11. d.... ....

    totally agree with your description. its a blessing to have Jon in this world !

  12. Z.... R....

    Original music composed by Jann Castor. Polish composer.
    Jon Anderson from the famous rock band "YES" collaborated on this and
    other compositions with an instrumentalist and a composer Jann Castor
    since 2007. The lyric of "Unbroken Spirit", although universal in its
    meaning, represents also a metaphorical journey of Jon Anderson recovery
    back to health from the acute respiratory collapse in May, 2008.

  13. R.... M....

    Thank you! Jon is a very special man......always has been!

  14. e.... ....

    I love this song! As many of others of Jon, but maybe this one is a little underrated.

  15. E.... S....

    Amazing images what a history

  16. G.... S....

    I love this video, thanks ! Your words about Jon are correct, he is a greath being and ispires me too. I did't know this song either. : )

  18. N.... C....

    Hey teenager, don't worry about that ignorant SuperJV4x. You be a teenager, and a good one! I am friends with Jon. He is indeed a great man.

    N.... C....

    Thanks. God bless you. I know Jon is a great man. I saw him about four times in his tours and it was just so wonderful to see him. :)

    N.... C....

    @MunkuAndVickiLove00
    Nic is right, Jess. :) You're great, and you made very good ob making this video.

    N.... C....

    @Markéta Marko Thanks Marko. :) 

  19. M.... C....

    I agree. :)

  20. f.... ....

    Gods cool....I consider it more like 'the force', than an old dude in the sky....but yeah....its hard to look at the natural world and not see something behind it all. What Jon says that I hear, is the cosmos and God force is within us all and all we need do is notice this and everything will change for the better the very next day. Wars, greed and evil will be gone. Nice.

  21. M.... C....

    I worship God. And I appreciate those who do god's work, my plan right now is to be a teenager and a good person. Jon's music is light in my life and if anyone has issue with that oh well, it's not going to darken my door for I know the truth.

    M.... C....

    MyDreamworld Channel now your an adult . How's it going

    M.... C....

    Be forever young.

  22. S.... ....

    your one of those who worship celebrities and like to belittle so called average people as being lesser beings because they are not a celebrity. Why don't you try out for American Idol? Maybe you can be someone too

  23. t.... y....

    You need to read up on the man and see what he's done for charities and such. Then compare them with what you've done.

  24. t.... y....

    Wonder what you're doing to help out the world in it's need?

  25. M.... C....

    Make the world a better place by thinking positive and making positive changes in our lives. Everyone has the ability to succeed, the problem with most is they focus all energy on being envious and put nothing toward their own success

  26. M.... C....

    I think life is great. I listen to Jon's music. I'm not rich, infact our family struggles everyday to make sure we are fed, bills are paid and we have a roof over our head. Jon's music has a message. It has nothing to do whether he has money but how to n

  27. S.... ....

    the very core of Yes is money - as their actions prove. Love was just a brand.

  28. S.... ....

    Anderson thinks life is great because he is rich, famous, talented and worshiped. The fact that 2 billion people live on the edge of starvation and most of the rest of the human race are wage slaves does little to dampen his enthusiasm for this 'beautiful world'. He would make a good elite in "hunger games"

    S.... ....

    You can't get depressed to uplift the world. You can only do well for yourself and become an inspiration to the others. Jon is a positive, creative person that gave pleasure to many and by virtue of sharing the best of himself attracted abundance into his life. His band was called " Yes". An affirmative. We only do well through affirmatives and focus on positivity. We can't eat, sleep or learn for anyone else. Everyone needs to want to be the best they can possibly be and want the positives in their life and believe that it is possible to become as abundant as Jon.
    You can't blame Jon for the lack of family planning, lack of awareness about the importance of education and allocation of public funds to aggression. To rectify those social issues, it takes about 3 generations, approx. 75 years in an undeveloped environment providing that there is peace in that environment.

  29. S.... ....

    'the most wonderful man on earth"? that's a bit over the top.

  30. f.... ....

    Im happy Jon has moved on and is writing good music again...He has touched so many and still has much to offer musically.....and I find it a bitter irony that he isnt with his mates in YES making the last few years of music with them....How very un YES like of Chris,Steve and Alan...to choose money over spirit, friendship and love...the very core of what is: YES. Much love to you Jon. Peace.

    I just discovered this on iTunes this morning and looked for some YouTube videos. Thank you so much for posting. Your photos are great.
    Jon Anderson has meant a lot to my wife and I for over 30 years. We had excerpts from "Awaken" in our wedding.
    I am an amateur singer and am struggling with aging myself. Jon gives me so much inspiration. He has overcome so much in recent years.
    We saw him with Rick Wakeman a year ago (Nov 2011), He was great. But more imortantly, he seemed at peace. Best,TSS
