lyrics

sadness and grief may come while you sleep
to fill up your dreams and over flow streams
and only God knows witch way the wind blows
but, i bide my time, cause only God knows

what makes the world go, why we know what we know
what makes the time floe……..i don’t know
i fill up my time with thoughts in my mind
and some art and life and some art and life

“i mean, what are we for, should i open a door
when the planets roar, should i sing some more
would it help me to be, does it help you to see
the stars in the sky, the blue in his eyes


sadness and grief may come while you sleep
to fill up your dreams and over flow streams
and only God knows witch way the wind blows
but i bide my time, cause only God knows

“what makes the world go, why we know what we know
what makes the time floe……..i don’t know
i fill up my time with thoughts in my mind
and some art and life and some art and life”

i mean, what are we for, should i open a door
when the planets roar, should i sing some more
would it help me to be, does it help you to see
the stars in the sky, the blue in his eyes

—-bring me Summer time, bring me snow
boys play basketball
and sing in the choir
