Lyrics
(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
