Producer: Michael Shrieve Carlos Santana

What's that sound I hear coming from the ground
That's going 'round and 'round I can feel it pull me down
On my knees tears of joy have come to me
As the flower sounds made it plain to see

That this world is a perfect place to live
There is a warm soft wind blowing 'round me just to give
All the leaves such a haunting melody
That forever will be a part of me

Just like a ship out on the sea
Floating alone no one around me or beyond me
The sun is on me
Then suddenly I felt a kiss out of the breeze
That did caress me and possess me
Oh, it astounds me

All around there's a feeling in the air
That with the grace of time we'll be getting closer there
But day by day I can see they walk away
And I wonder, Lord will they ever know

That this world is a perfect place to live?
Just look into your heart, find the love that's there to give
Realize that the secret is to share

Just like a ship out on the sea
Floating alone no one around me or beyond me
The sun is on me
Then suddenly I felt a kiss out of the breeze
That did caress me and possess me
Oh, it astounds me

Santana

Carlos Augusto Alves Santana (born July 20, 1947 in Autlán de Navarro, Jalisco) is a Mexican and American musician who became famous in the late 1960s and early 1970s with his band, Santana, which pioneered a fusion of rock and Latin American music. Carlos prefers to only play and leave lead vocals to guest singers. The band’s sound featured his melodic, blues-based guitar lines set against Latin and African rhythms featuring percussion instruments such as timbales and congas not generally heard in rock music. He experienced a resurgence of popularity and critical acclaim in the late 1990s. In 2003 Rolling Stone magazine listed Santana at number 20 on their list of the 100 Greatest Guitarists of All Time. He has won ten Grammy Awards and three Latin Grammy Awards.
