Nobody knows about what's going on,
|
with the world and the steel,
|
the flesh and the bone.
|
River keeps flowing and the grass still grows,
|
and the spirit keeps going, nobody knows.
|
Poets they come and the poets they go,
|
politicians and preachers they all claim to know.
|
The words that are written and the melody's played,
|
as the years turn their pages, they all start to fade.
|
The oceans still move with the moon and the sky,
|
the grass still grows on the hillside.
|
Got to believe in believing,
|
got to believe in a dream,
|
freedom is ever deceiving,
|
never turning out to be what it seems.
|
It's amazing how fast our lives go by,
|
like the flash of the lightning or the blink of an eye.
|
We all fall in love, and we fall into life,
|
we look for the truth on the edge of a knife.
|
Heavens turn around the river still flows,
|
spirit keeps going, nobody knows.
|
Words that are written and melody's played,
|
as the years turn their pages, it all start to fade.
|
Oceans still move with the moon and the sky,
|
the grass still grows on the hillside.
|
Got to believe in believing,
|
got to believe in a dream,
|
freedom is ever deceiving,
|
never turning out to be what it seems.
