PLEASE take hold of my hand, that I might understand you
You serve me and I'll serve you Swing your partners, all get screwed Bring your lawyer and I'll bring mine Get together, and we could have a bad time
It's affidavit swearing time Sign it on the dotted line Hold your Bible in your hand Now all that's left is to find yourself a new band
We're gonna play the sue me, sue you blues We're gonna play the sue me, sue you blues
Hold the block on money flow Move it into joint escrow Court receiver, laughs, and thrills But in the end we just pay those lawyers their bills
When you serve me and I serve you Swing your partners, all get screwed Bring your lawyer and I'll bring mine Get together, and we could have a bad time
We're gonna play the sue me, sue you blues We're gonna play the sue me, sue you blues I'm tired of playing the sue me, sue you blues.
I've heard how some people, have said that I've changed That I'm not what I was How it really is a shame The thoughts in their heads, Manifest on their brow Like bad scars from ill feelings they themselves arouse So hateful of anyone that is happy or 'free' They live all their lives, without looking to see The light that has lighted the world
It's funny how people, just won't accept change As if nature itself - they'd prefer re-arranged So hard to move on When you're down in a hole Where there's so little chance, to experience soul
I'm greatful to anyone, that is happy or 'free' for giving me hope while I'm looking to see
I've been held up, I've been run down I can see quite clearly now Through those past years When I played towing the line
I only ask that what I feel Should not be denied me now As it's been earned And I have seen my life belongs to me My love belongs to who can see it
I've lived in fear, I've been out there I've been 'round and seen my share Of this sad world And all the hate that it's stirred
I only ask that what I know Should not be denied me now As it's been learned And I have seen my life belongs to me My love belongs to who can see it
I only ask that what I feel Should not be denied me now As it's been earned And I have seen my life belongs to me My love belongs to who can see it, oh My love belongs to who
I'm living in the material world Living in the material world
can't say what I'm doing here But I hope to see much clearer, after living in the material world
I got born into the material world Getting worn out in the material world Use my body like a car, Taking me both near and far Met my friends all in the material world
Met them all there in the material world John and Paul here in the material world Though we started out quite poor We got 'Richie' on a tour Got caught up in the material world
From the Spiritual Sky, Such sweet memories have I To the Spiritual Sky How I pray Yes I pray that I won't get lost or go astray
As I'm fated for the material world Get frustrated in the material world Senses never gratified Only swelling like a tide That could drown me in the material world
From the Spiritual Sky, Such sweet memories have I To the Spiritual Sky How I pray Yes I pray that I won't get lost or go astray
While I'm living in the material world Not much 'giving' in the material world Got a lot of work to do Try to get a message through And get back out of this material world
I'm living in the material world Living in the material world I hope to get out of this place by the LORD SRI KRSNA'S GRACE My salvation from the material world Big Ending
The Lord loves the one that loves the Lord And the law says if you don't give, then you don't get loving
Now the Lord helps those that help themselves And the law says whatever you do is going to come right back on you
We all making out Like we own this whole world While the leaders of nations They're acting like big girls With no thoughts for their God Who provides us with all But when death comes to claim them Who will stand, and who will fall?
The Lord loves the one that loves the Lord And the law says if you don't give, then you don't get loving
Now the Lord helps those that help themselves And the law says whatever you do is going to come right back on you
We all move around, with objectives in mind, to become rich or famous, With our reputations signed, But the few that can reach, to this coveted slot, don't escape old age creeping, through their bodies, like a rot
While the Lord loves the one that loves the Lord And the law says if you don't give, then you don't get loving Now the Lord helps those that help themselves And the law says whatever you do is going to come right back on you
Way back in time Someone said try some I tried some Now buy some - I bought some . . . Oh Oh Oh After a while when I had tried them denied them I opened my eyes and I saw you . . .
Not a thing did I have Not a thing did I see 'Till I called on your love And your love came to me
OH OH OH OH OH OH
Through my life I've seen gray sky, met big fry, seen them die to get high . . . Oh Oh Oh And when it seemed that I would always be lonely I opened my eyes and I saw you
Not a thing did I feel Not a thing did I know 'Till I called on your love And your love sure did grow
The day the world gets 'round to understanding where it is, Using all it's found, to help each other, hand in hand
The day the world gets 'round to understanding where it's gone Losing so much ground killing each other, hand in hand Such foolishness in man I want no part of their plan - OH NO
If you're the destructive kind Now I'm working from day to day As I don't want to be like you I look for the pure of heart And the ones that have made a start,
But Lord, there are just a few who bow before you, in silence they pray,
Oh how they pray for the day the world gets 'round
Using all they've found To help each other, hand in hand
That is all I want to say Our love could save the day That is all I'm waiting for To try to love you more -
- and that is all I want to do To get right next to you That is all I'm living for, Your love and nothing more And that is all
Times I find it hard to say With useless words getting in my way Silence often says much more Than trying to say what's been said before.
That is all I want from you A smile when I feel blue
That is all I'm waiting for Your love and nothing more
And that is all
Silence often says much more Than trying to say what's been said before. But that is all I want to do To give my love to you That is all I'm living for, Please let me love you more - and that is all
