I know this is an old thread but, for those interested since Smokey's devastating death last week, yes, there are/were lyrics. I wrote them when he completed the tune as part of a project we set ourselves, but, after much deliberation, we decided that, as so often, the music expressed itself, achieved it's aims etc better without words. Think of it as a vocalise as in Clara Rockmore's Theremin version of the Rachmaninov. Anna Brooks version is superb.
