|
There once was a note |
|
Pure and easy |
|
Playin' so free, like a breath rippling by |
|
The note is eternal |
|
I hear it it sees me |
|
Forever we blend |
|
And 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 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 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 |
|
(repeat 18 times) |
