|
There once was a note, pure and easy |
|
Playing so free, like a breath rippling by |
|
The note is eternal, I hear it, it sees me |
|
Forever we blend it, forever we die |
|
I listened and I heard music in a word |
|
And words when you played your guitar |
|
The noise that I was hearing |
|
Was a million people cheering |
|
And a child flew past me riding in a star |
|
As people assemble |
|
Civilization is trying to find a new way to die |
|
But killing is really merely scene changer |
|
All men are bored with other men's lies |
|
I listened and I heard music in a word |
|
And words when you played your guitar |
|
The noise that I was hearing |
|
Was a million people cheering |
|
And a child flew past me riding in a star |
|
Gas on the hillside, oil in the teacup |
|
Watch all the chords of life lose their joy |
|
Distortion becomes somehow pure in its wildness |
|
The note that began all, can also destroy |
|
We all know success when we all find our own dreams |
|
And our love is enough to knock down any walls |
|
And the future's been seen as men try to realize |
|
The simple secret of the note in us all |
|
I listened and I heard music in a word |
|
And words when you played your guitar |
|
The noise that I was hearing |
|
Was a million people cheering |
|
And a child flew past me riding in a star |
|
There once was a note, pure and easy |
|
Playing so free, like a breath rippling by |
|
There once was a note, listen |
|
There once was a note, listen |
|
There once was a note, listen |
|
