Yes — The Prophet

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 the sounds 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 different lights his life was redeeming Words of peace would 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 just 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 sometimes you used to do Just remember when you're gone there's someone after you, you
