"The Wheel" lyrics
"The Wheel"
We can be, oh, one world
We will be, oh, one world
In the jungles of the mountain
Young Nora loves the mountain
And the mountain feeds the people
And the wheel keeps on turnin'
Revolution!
And the wheel keeps on rollin'
Firmly toward tomorrow
And the mountain speaks clearly
To the people in the streets
And they sit and watch the motion
Watch it rollin' by
Some climb aboard
And roll into the future
Evolution!
And the wheel keeps on turnin'
It turns and rolls forever
The wheel is life and children and it
Goes on forever and it's roll roll roll
Roll roll roll
And Nora sang:
We will be one country (We will be)
We will be one world (One world)
We can be, oh, one world
I dreamt I was in love again
With the lady of the mountain
The lighthouse keeper's daughter
The seer of visions and I
Smiled at the pain
Of our innocent past
Of love on the wheel
In the circle at the heart of
Devotion!
And the wind from the mountain
Blew across our love affair
And awakened the heart
To the roll of the wheel
And the night grew still
Ad no wind was blowin'
I know this was the hour
Liberation!
And the wheel keeps on turnin'
It won't go away
It will not be denied and it
Goes on forever and it's roll roll roll
The circle is unbroken (Ah)
We will be one world (We will be)
We can be one world (One world)
We will see, oh, one world
And Nora shouted from the top of the cathedral:
Dreams don't die
They don't wave goodbye
Unless you let them go
And watch them die in fury
"Freedom is like wheat
It must be planted softly
And watered every day
And it must be protected
'Til it multiplies
Fills the mouth of the wind
And the hunger of all
Becomes invincible"
Ringing from the mountain
Fire from the mountain
In the heart of the volcano
The future is born
We will be one world
And it goes on forever
Rolling toward tomorrow in the
Streets of forever and it's roll roll roll
The future is unspoken
Roll roll roll
And the wheel keeps on rolling to one world
We will be, oh
We can see, oh, one world
We will be, oh

The Stooges - "Down On The Street" Well, down on the street where the faces shine
Floatin' around, on a real O-Mind
I see a pretty thing - ain't no wall

Heart - "Crazy On You" We may still have time
We might still get by
Every time I think about it I wanna cry
With bombs and the devil
And the kids keep coming
No way to breathe easy
No time to be young
But I tell myself...
The Guess Who - "Undun" She's come undone
She didn't know what she was headed for
And when I found what she was headed for
It was too late
She's come undone
She found a mountain that was far too high
And when she found out...

Flying in a big airliner
Chicken flying everywhere around the plane

The Youngbloods - "Get Together" Love is but a song we sing
Fear's the way we die
You can make the mountains ring
Or make the angels cry
Though the bird is on the wing
And you may not know why
Come on people now
Smile on your...
