(anderson/squire)
Long ago a tall man told a tale of yesterday,
searching for the truth to life and not for just a way.
finding pleasure from this house his ears, they did obey;
in his life a moment's pleasure, never to delay.
he was lost and in his trust he found a new meaning;
seeing the things in diff'rent lights his life was redeemed.
Words of peace will fill his mind and change his way of life;
peaceful meetings with his heart have made him more alive.
meeting wise old women on the cliffs of life itself;
asking not for pers'nal meaning, more for just himself.
soon we'll be as he proclaimed in a new way of living;
take the things you need in life but remember the giving.
Prophesy within your mind and you will work it out;
prophesy that some will die but only those who doubt.
then you'll never worry as somtimes you used to do;
just remember when you're gone there's someone after you, you.
