(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.
