There once was a note, pure and easy
|
Playing so free, like a breathe rippling by
|
The note is eternal, I hear it, it sees me
|
Forever we blend as 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 lives
|
|
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 on a star
|
|
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
|
In us all
|
|
[Guitar break]
|
|
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
|
|
The day is the day, the sound covers mountains
|
Blowing, blowing each man into wake
|
Destroying its self in the end with vibrations
|
There's nothing on earth it's challenge can take
|
|
Excepting one note
|
Excepting one note, pure and easy
|
Playing so free, like a breathe rippling by
|
|
Excepting one note, excepting one note
|
|
There once was a note,...listen
|
There once was a note,...listen
|
