anyone can tell you what’s yours and what is mine
so you concentrate on nothing but what you love or leave behind
time enough and time again now the time is always right
by the way, it’ll be okay you can stay with me tonight
now the memory is gone, but the child still lives on in the song
there’s a warm wind rising and it’s blowing through your ears
say, hey I’m leaving, won’t you love me through your tears?
because one world will choose, and another one will lose
they’re bound to explode so they’re blowing on their kazoos
and now you’re gone as fast as coming home, and you’re lost into your deep sea blues
now the coast is clear but it hasn’t always been that way
it’s something from your childhood that will never go away
the markings on the wall, and on the cabinet, on the fridge
but all they want to know is who you knew not what you did
just then the sun came riding through on a whim
everything you touch turns to flowers in the spring
time and time again you took to the promises that you made
but I loved you then, I love you to the moon and to the train
and your smile’s in the river, and the laughter’s in the rain
all at once the earth shook and it took me by surprise
so I rounded up my companions and I looked into their eyes
then I slowly fell into you as I held you in the cue
and out the corner of my eye I saw all the others come into view
and now they’re laying out the roses and they’re dying to be with you too
high up on the mountain and or I’m high up on the hill
every single one of us is bitten by what we feel
we can love and live and die and be born onto the wheel
or we could spin inside forever and never know just what is real
so I’ll dream my way through morning and I’ll lay myself down in a field
