May 2013
I've stood on mountains high
Swung the valley's low
Kissed the starry sky
Spoke of what I know

Swam the oceans deep
Walked the desert sands
Calmed the savage beast
Made up my demands

Seen the city streets
In the city's fog
Heard the jungle beats
Coming of the dawn

Conclusions that are drawn
In the dead of night
Point to all that's wrong
A day in the life

Walked the narrow path
The one less traveled on
Seen what it is I lack
A soul that's tired and worn

Heard a distant call
A whisper on the wind
Of what it is I've done
Of where it is I've been

I stood to gain it all
In the latter days
Then I made the call
To give it all away

With a show of hands
Show us where you've been
Show us what you have
Then show us all again

Stood on mountains high
Swung the valley's low
Kissed the starry sky
Spoke of what I know
