The light shining around us is helping us to find
What we have always found to be impossible at night
Wake up my friend, the sun is high in the sky
And the beauty of this place still leaves me tongue-tied

Look around….Look around….
Can’t you feel the energy flow in this river of sound?
Look around….Look around….
Can’t you let your troubles go in this haven that I found?

The woods are getting weary
They can’t take much more
All of this development is ripping out their core
Why can’t we see the beauty, glimpse the tranquil bliss that
Though we pass through for a while
Soon leaves us to reminisce

Look around….Look around….
Can’t you feel the energy flow in this river of sound?
Look around….Look around….
Can’t you let your troubles go in this haven that I found?

There was a time when it was simpler
And we knew just what to do
Making music in the dark
Helped cure the color blue
Dusk is growing near now
Love, reach out for a star
Keep it; hold it, in your hand
And it will take you far

Look around….Look around….
Can’t you feel the energy flow in this river of sound?
Look around….Look around….
Can’t you let your troubles go in this haven that I found?

The clock is ticking
Our time is at an end
Never forget what you’ve learned and
Be sure to send
This message to your loved ones
Be true to your soul
If you pretend you’re someone else, well
It’ll take its toll

Look around….Look around….
Can’t you feel the energy flow in this river of sound?
Look around….Look around….
Can’t you let your troubles go in this haven that I found?
