Numbers (Album Version)

歌詞

Praise God, for it was written in numbers Soon you'll know of the great joy we feel Today day to be able to speak freely And talk eye to eye With a small group of Americans We feel that the time has come For your nation to awaken To its true spiritual import And we wish you everything in our power To that realization Four mourning doves searching in the park Saying don't be confused when the night is dark Eleven white swans swimming in a black lake Told me keep it real and you'll find who's fake Two cedar trees half submerged in the water Don't prophesize about sons and daughters One new master of the form Tai Chi Friends of the accuser and the accusee One pimp using songs as his hussy Won't be here next year to tell you 'bout nothing Two happy kids playing basketball Til a war broke out and killed them all A bunch of ideas like fireflies An eighteen-year-old girl with stars in her eyes We saw the gentle trickster on the highway tonight Keep your mouth closed and your eyes open wide Though the roof may leak in many places Shining faces shining faces May she sleep in peace And wake up in my arms Some day soon some day soon Some day soon some day soon The separation from unity Is the descent of the angels upon the ladder of consciousness The return to unity is the ascent of the angels upon the ladder The descent is good But the unity that comes is expressed diversity But in diversity there would be no concept of separation Those that were numbered Had a path to follow Fly as swift as the swallow Where no enemies can follow The path that was laid for the righteous man Don't promote the fool Claiming he's the wisest man As they slander our name in shame When our aim is to do what comes natural We're hatchin' the fireflies on a river Feelin' straght from my toes, knees, kidneys to my liver Clouds drop down the dew My friends what about you Clouds drop down the dew My friends what about you Though the roof may leak in many places Shining faces shining faces May she sleep in peace And wake up in my arms Some day soon some day soon Some day soon some day soon Though the roof may leak in many places Shining faces shining faces May she sleep in peace And wake up in my arms Some day soon some day soon Some day soon some day soon
