I'm playing my guitar while my sister bangs the jar
|
The glass sets up a sound like people laughing
|
It's going to my brain and it's easing all my pain
|
I must hear this sound again 'cause time is passing
|
|
Mmm.
|
|
I'm walking by the sea and the shingle sings for me
|
The crabs are swimming down among the starfish
|
The rocks all clatter down and the seagulls fly around
|
But the whole trip rubs it in that time is passing, passing
|
|
Find it, I got to hear it all again...
|
My heart has heard the sound of harmony
|
Blind to it, as my tears fall again
|
It's only by the music I'll be free
|
|
There's something in the whisper of the trees
|
Millions hear it, still they can't believe
|
There are echoes of it splashing in the waves
|
As an empire of dead men leave their graves
|
|
Don't listen to people talk, don't listen to 'em selling souls
|
Don't listen to me or words from men above
|
Don't hear it in your needs and don't hear it in your greed's
|
Just hear it in the sound of time a passing
|
|
Find it, I got to hear it all again
|
My heart has heard the sound of harmony
|
Blind to it, as my tears fall again
|
It's only by the music I'll be free
|
