Lyrics:John Denver/Joe Henry Music:John Denver/Joe Henry | |
A heritage of vision | |
Was given to us all | |
To smell the rose's fragrance | |
To hear the songbird's call | |
To watch the distant moonlight fill | |
The coming of the tides | |
To understand that life is more | |
Than always choosing sides | |
And some have seen what can be seen | |
Of sailing ships and kings | |
And some are given feet of clay | |
And some are given wings | |
And some must struggle just to breathe | |
Some have a golden spoon | |
And some will never leave the nest | |
While some walk on the moon | |
And don't you know the life that lives | |
Within the silent hills | |
Is just as rich and beautiful | |
And just as unfulfilled | |
As man with all his intellect | |
His reason and his choice | |
Oh, who's to say the nightingale | |
Has any less a voice | |
The silver dolphins twist and dance | |
And sing to one another | |
The cosmic ocean knows no bounds | |
For all that live are brothers | |
The whippoorwill, the grizzly bear | |
The elephant, the whale | |
All children of the universe | |
All weavers of the tale | |
So palomino lie back down | |
And dream yourself to sleep | |
The hawk flies with the morning dove | |
The lion with the sheep | |
As far away as you may go | |
We'll never be apart | |
It's in your dreams that you will know | |
The seasons of the heart |

Was given to us all | |
To smell the rose' s fragrance | |
To hear the songbird' s call | |
To watch the distant moonlight fill | |
The coming of the tides | |
To understand that life is more | |
Than always choosing sides | |
And some have seen what can be seen | |
Of sailing ships and kings | |
And some are given feet of clay | |
And some are given wings | |
And some must struggle just to breathe | |
Some have a golden spoon | |
And some will never leave the nest | |
While some walk on the moon | |
And don' t you know the life that lives | |
Within the silent hills | |
Is just as rich and beautiful | |
And just as unfulfilled | |
As man with all his intellect | |
His reason and his choice | |
Oh, who' s to say the nightingale | |
Has any less a voice | |
The silver dolphins twist and dance | |
And sing to one another | |
The cosmic ocean knows no bounds | |
For all that live are brothers | |

As far away as you may go | |
We' ll never be apart | |
It' s in your dreams that you will know | |
