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.
