Come on, come on
Come on, Come on, Come on, Come on, Come on, Come on, Come on, Come on, Come on
[etc.]
We were all uprooted
The earth was stolen from beneath our feet
We became a Diaspora
An unnamed nation of bastards
We channeled our roots to the pulse of light
deep within the galaxies of our mind
Our breath was the sky
Our dreams were water
We claimed the wilderness
We recognized one another
He-o he came
walking down my street
He-o and he stopped in front of my door
He-o and he knocked on the door a long while
He-o then he turned and he walked away
He-o then he turned and he walked away
He-o and he never came back again
He-o I wasn't at home that day
He-o and I never found out that he came
[interlude] |
He-o he came
walking down my street
He-o and he stopped in front of my door
He-o and he knocked on the door a long while
He-o then he turned and he walked away
He-o then he turned and he walked away
He-o and he never came back again
He-o I wasn't at home that day
He-o and I never found out that he came |
Let it happen
Honey don't you live on the edge of your life
Let it happen
Honey don't you live on the edge of a sigh
Let it happen
Honey don't you live on the edge of a smile
Let it happen
Honey don't you live on the edge of your time
Baby all you got to do
Is let the rhythm get to youBaby all
you got to do
Is let the rhythm get to you
Let it happen
Honey take a ride on the wheel of life
Let it happen
Open up your heart to the wheel of life
Let it happen
You can put your trust to the wheel of life
Let it happen
Throw away your fear on the wheel of life
Baby all you got to do
Is let the rhythm get to you
Baby all you got to do
Is let the rhythm get to you
[interlude]
Let it happen
All you need is love on the wheel of life |
Let it happen
All you need is love on the wheel of life
Let it happen
All you need is love on the wheel of life
Let it happen
All you need is love on the wheel of life
Baby all you got to do
Is let the rhythm get to you
Baby all you got to do
Is let the rhythm get to you
Let it happen
All you need is love on the wheel of life
Let it happen
All you need is love on the wheel of life
All you need is love on the wheel of life
All you need is love on the wheel of life
All you need is love on the wheel of life
All you need is love on the wheel of life
All you need is love on the wheel of life |
My face in the rain
I walk all alone
It's Sunday time is slow
I'm happy that is all I know
My face into the sun
My life is my own
It's Sunday time is slow
I am happy that is all I know |
[interlude]
My thoughts in the rain
I walk all alone
It's Sunday time is slow
I am happy that is all I know |
I would like to
write a song
That is so vibrant and so intimate
That the earth would adopt it
As if it had sprung like the stream
From the land's memory
As if no one had written it but life itself * |
And my song would
travel along
From bird to wing, to tree
To breeze to heart to breath to song
Because a song belongs to everyone
Like the spring |
