It was the best of times it was the worst of times.
It was was a musical convergence in a societal event horizon.
You had to be there to really understand it, but I guess ("It's like trying to tell a stranger about Rock & Roll.")
Interesting to hear it dismissed as trite fifty years later.
From "I want to hold your hand" to Within you without you in a few years.
We were talking-about the space between us all
And the people-who hide themselves behind a wall of illusion
Never glimpse the truth-then it's far too late-when they pass away.
We were talking-about the love we all could share-when we find it
To try our best to hold it there-with our love
With our love-we could save the world-if they only knew.
Try to realize it's all within yourself
No-one else can make you change
And to see you're really only very small,
And life flows ON within you and without you.
We were talking-about the love that's gone so cold and the people,
Who gain the world and lose their soul-
They don't know-they can't see-are you one of them?
When you've seen beyond yourself-then you may find, peace of mind,
Is waiting there-
And the time will come when you see
we're all one, and life flows on within you and without you
