And you sell yourself so short every time You look at her and never dare to cross the line Why is it so hard for you to understand We'll never make it far beyond the gate without each other's hands
Yes, you've had it once before, you really did, before you left it all behind You've forgotten what you knew before they put their heartless patterns on your mind And it is being, only being, it is being, it is as it was before And it is being, yes, believing, being, only being, as you were before
You should be glad to be alive, to laugh and hear the babies cry There is no tolling of the bell, you can forget to be afraid to die You were too busy to remember, you forgot your birth, the one essential mind Oh, you're not the child you thought you were, you wake up in the dark to know you're blind
Yes, you had it once before, you really did, before you left it all behind You've forgotten what you knew before they put their heartless patterns on your mind And it is being, only being, it is being, it is as it was before And it is being, yes, believing, being, only being, as you were before And it is being, only being, it is being, it is as it was before And it is being, yes, believing, being, only being, as you were before Aaaah
