Cat Stevens - Drywood текст песни

Youve got to learn, to brighten up your ways

Kick out your dull padded life

Theres much to know, and no doors in space

They were only mirrors you imagined in your mind

Now that youve got no place to go

And you stand alone

Know that theres just one place to be

And its in your soul, oh

Like drywood takes to fire the truth will come to you

Like streams that seek the ocean they will find ways through

Like morning meets the moon, my love will guide the way

Its time to wipe your eyes not, and awake

Ive come to take you over, theres much for you to do

Ive come to take you over, then its up to you

Be like the light, in the shadows

Throw down your mask and be real

Dont wish to win, and dont mind to lose

That was just a cycle like a squirrel in a wheel

Now that youve got no place to look

And you stand alone

Know thats theres just one place to be

And it is your home, oh

Like fish that seek the water, the truth will come to you

Like leaves upon the soil, they will find ways through

Like flowers seek the sun, my love will guide the way

Its time to wipe your eyes now, and awake.

You say youre really with me but you only follow me around

How much you love me yes,

But I dont want the kind of love

I have to sit down and count

You think youre free and lucky but youre stuck behind a prison wall

How well you know yourself

But I see something else within you

That you dont see at all

You may give up your number, disowning all your wealth

You may sell all the pieces, but youll

Never never never give up

Yourself, oh no no no.

Like drywood takes to fire the truth will come to you

Like streams that seek the ocean they will find ways through

Like morning meets the nights stars, my love will guide the way

Its time to wipe your eyes not, and awake

Ive come to take you over, theres much for you to do

Ive come to take you over, then its up to you.
