No Opportunity Necessary, No Experience
Needed
Step out in the night
When you're lonely
Listening for the sounds
That your ears don't hear.
I know your cross is heavier
With every step, every step
But I know a man
Who'd walk miles for you.
Stop! You stay where you are.
Take a look at yourself.
Take a good look at yourself.
Can't tell your mama,
She'd only tell you
That she told you so,
The life you are leading
She won't believe
The real trick of life we all know.
Dawn turns to day
And the dawning
Daytime Nighttime
And we still can't see
Why must we wait
until the morning light
To wake up and be
To wake up and be
To wake up and be
To wake up and be.
Step out in the night
When you're lonely
Listen for the sounds
That your ears don't hear
I know your cross is heavier
With every step
Every step
But I know a man
Who'd walk miles for you
Stop, you stay where you are
Take a look at yourself
Take a good look at yourself
'Can tell your momma
She'd only tell ya
That she told you so
The life you're leading
She won't believe
The riches of life
We all know
'Can tell your momma
She'd only tell ya
That she told you so
The life you're leading
She won't believe
The riches of life
We all know
Then
And in a time that's closer, life will be even older then.
Souls will be complicated, life will be consummated then.
Hearts will be brought together soon in our minds forever
then.
As long as we see there's only us, who can change it;
Only us to rearrange it at the start of a new kind of day.
And in a time that's closer, life will be even bolder then.
Love is the only answer, hate is the root of cancer then.
Truth is just for the being and is the sight for seeing
then.
Thoughts will be thought together soon in our minds forever
then.
As long as we see there's only us, who can change it;
Only us to rearrange it at the start of a new kind of day.
And in a time that's closer, life will be even bolder then.
Love is the only answer, hate is the root of cancer then.
Truth is just for the being and is the sight for seeing
then.
Everydays
Look at the sad goodbyes
Every day's a killing time
Sun coming up outside
No men are born this time
Saturday's child stays home
Nothing to say so long
Well Well Well another day
Well Well well another day.
Grocery store ten bucks
Just making change for plastic cherries
Up in a tree, a Jay Bird
Looking at me, no word
Everyone looks but can't see.
We can't be ignored so easily
Well Well Well another day
Well Well Well another day.
Soft within the wayward things
Like ecstasy, the sound of trees,
Most anything, what a baby sees
Beautiful face all right
Many a place out of sight
Old woman there with red shoes
Four million balloons all used
Drive over hills forget your fear
Getting it out of second gear
Well Well Well another day
Well Well Well another day.
Sweet Dreams
Sweet dreams can solve the future,
Sweet dreams provide the past.
Sweet things within your makeup;
These things will always last,
These things will make
Sweet dreams of conversation,
Sweet dreams of love affection.
Sweet words within your makeup;
Sweet words of things to
Come on and write your letter,
You know it will be better anyhow.
You're gonna laugh again,
You're gonna smile again,
You're gonna love again.
Sweet dreams are born inside you,
Sweet dreams are born to last.
Sweet thoughts within your makeup;
These thoughts will always last,
These thoughts will always last.
Come on and write your letter,
You know it will be better anyhow.
You're gonna laugh again,
You're gonna smile again,
You're gonna love again.
Sweet dreams can solve the future,
Sweet dreams provide the past.
Sweet dreams can solve the future,
Sweet dreams provide the past.
The Prophet
Long ago a tall man told a tale of yesterday,
Searching for the truth to life and not for just the way.
Finding pleasure from the sounds his ears, they did obey;
In his life a moment's pleasure, never to delay.
He was lost and in his trust he found a new meaning;
Seeing things in diff'rent lights his life was redeeming.
Words of peace would fill his mind and change his way of
life;
Peaceful meetings with his heart have made him more alive.
Meeting wise old women on the cliffs of life itself;
Asking more for first meaning, more for just himself.
Soon we'll be as he proclaimed in a new way of living;
Take the things you need in life but remember the giving.
Prophesy within your mind and you will work it out;
Prophesy that some will die but only those who doubt.
Then you'll never worry as sometimes you used to do;
Just remember when you're gone there's someone after you,
you.
Clear Days
I once knew a sweet young girl;
Her body was her world and love,
Her laughter was as happiness is.
Of all the times I treasure this.
And on a day we will remember,
On a clear day we will love forever.
I once knew a sweet young dream,
That if life itself were all we had
Then who are we to ask for more;
Let's not be sad, let's all be sure.
And on a day we will remember,
On a clear day we'll all be together,
Together.
Astral Traveller
And in the ruins of the balloon
Stood a man with glasses held high,
Wandering when to do it again
Have another fly into the sky,
Somewhere flying high.
Astral traveller,
Leaving without her,
Wondering where lights go;
Leave out the body load.
Once in the air, people who dare
Get great respect in being.
(Astral traveller.)
Heavenly flight wondrous night
And all the sights worth seeing,
Just believe in.
Astral traveller,
Leaving without her,
Wondering where lights go;
Leave out the body load.
Time And A Word
In the morning when you rise,
Do you open up your eyes, see what I see?
Do you see the same things ev'ry day?
Do you think of a way to start the day
Getting things in proportion?
Spread the news and help the world go 'round.
Have you heard of a time that will help us get it together
again?
Have you heard of the word that will stop us going wrong?
Well, the time is near the word you'll hear
When you get things in perspective.
Spread the news and help the word go round.
There's a time and the time is now and it's right for me,
It's right for me, and the time is now.
There's a word and the word is love and it's right for me,
It's right for me, and the word is love.
Have you heard of a time that will help get it together
again?
Have you heard of the word that will stop us going wrong?
Well, the time is near and the word you'll hear
When you get things in perspective.
Spread the news and help the word go round.
There's a time and the time is now and it's right for me,
It's right for me, and the time is now.
There's a word and the word is love and it's right for me,
It's right for me, and the word is love.
There's a time and the time is now and it's right for me,
It's right for me, and the time is now.
There's a word and the word is love and it's right for me,
It's right for me, and the word is love.
