Lyrics
Last night I had a dream Seeds were in my hand
I was in a field of green My heart beat with the land
Happiness grew naturally Music flowed just like the creek
And there was an apple tree Bending down before the meek
And we sang oh lord
This was meant to be
Oh lord for everyone
But to forgive Is to understand
And to live in natures plan
Hell is in our mind Hell it serves the rich
Our puzzle is to find A way to throw the switch
I woke up from this dream & scratched my head in wonder
Is there a way to redeem Amidst all this plunder
Well of course ... like every morning
Rising with the shining sun
Love’s revealed without a warning
And the work is never done
Oh lord
We’ll plant what’s meant to be
Oh lord for everyone
The sun it never rises, the sun it never sets
It just burns & burns & burns
Till it burns no more
