Xavier Rudd - Food In The Belly (2007) by Xavier Rudd (보컬) on maniadb.com

I sit at my window
With everything I've done
Doors that I've opened
The webs that i've spun

And the candle beside me
it burns to the left
and the rain on the clay
sends the lizard to it's nest

will there be a time
when i'll hold you again
With my arms spread out
My chest you'll rest

And I'll write you a letter
With everything I know
'bout the weight of the world
And the way things could go

So live up my friend
Step back again
For somethings will be given
For some you'll have to bend
You' ll have to bend my friend
To hold on to this
For somethings will come easy
And some will be a test
(You'll have to bend)

Now the ocean connects me
To everything i know
I'm mellowing my mind
So my heart, it can call

With these trees as my witness
I'll slice up some fruit
And each to their peacefull
good intentions and truth

There will be a time


when i'll hold you again
With my arms spread out
I will dive right in

So now here is your letter
With everything I know
'Bout the weight of the world
And the way things could go

So live up my friend
Step back again
For somethings will be given
For some you'll have to bend
You'll have to bend my friend
To hold on to this
For somethings will come easy
And some will be a test
You'll have to bend

Now the ocean connects me
To everything I know
I'm mellowing my mind
So my heart, it can call

With these trees as my witness
I'll slice up some fruit
And each to their peacefull
good intentions and truth

There will be a time
When i'll hold you again
With my arms spread out
I will dive right in

So now here is your letter
With everything I know
'bout the weight of the world
And the way things could go

So now come sit down
Will you talk with me now
Let me see through your eyes
Where there is so much light
We are biding our time
For these myths to unwind
For these changes we will confront

So please beware
With every place that you had
Look to your soul
For the things that you know
For the trees that we see
Can not forever breathe
With the changes they will confront

CHORUS:
You know some people they just won't understand
no I just won't understand
These things
Thank you for your message but I don't understand
no I just won't understand
These things

For this sacred land
It has seen many hands
It has wealth and gold
Yet it is fragile and old
And all the greedy souls
Just don't care to know
Of the changes it will confront

So speak out loud
Of the things you are proud
And if you love this coast
Then keep it clean as it hopes
'Cause the way that it shines
May just dwindle with time
With the changes it will confront



CHORUS:
You know some people they just won't understand
no I just won't understand
These things
Thank you for your message but I don't understand
no I just won't understand
These things


So hold nice and close
I want to get to your soul
So that when it is cold
You won't feel so alone
'Cause the roads that you take
May just crack and break
With the changes you will confront

With each gift that you share
You may heal and repair
With each choice you make
You may help someone's day
Well I know you are strong
May your journey be long
And now I wish you the best of luck
Well I know you are strong
May your journey be long
And now I wish you the best of luck.

CHORUS:
You know some people they just won't understand
no I just won't understand
These things
Thank you for your message but I don't understand
no I just won't understand
These things

here and now our choices here are growing thin,
as children grow they grow with what they see
in these times where paranioa closes in
power and hate a rampaging disease
in our minds we build the blocks to what we need
in our minds we are reaching out for peace
in our hearts we know of such the hills to climb
in our hearts a sesne of mass defeat

shame sahme these games that they play with you and me
shame for these games that they play our children will keep

these are our times this problem much to big to hold


for you and i far too high to reach
we can begin by holding close the things we know
and valuing our pockets of peace
these are the earth the sun the moon the sea the sky
these are the gifts to which we all agree
through these things and those we love we can unite
and sink into our pockets of peace

Well I see, because this is my window
Your questions, with every move I make
So much time, I filled up with answers
To why my feet, will always hold their ground

Need to be the one
Redefine yourself
See it in your mind
This is all a game
Do it all again
Redefine yourself
See it in your mind
This is all a game



This is my fortune

Well I see, the sun in my window
That questions will remain

This is my fortune

So go but be kind
you have luck on your side
born into a family with food in their bellies
and a car for them to drive
People sleeping on the concrete
still smile behind their signs
So go now be happy and be free
you, you have so much time

If you go chances are you'll come again
if you come chances are you'll go
so be mellow let it flow let it bend
I'll see you somewhere at the end

So go but be kind
you have luck on your side
born into a family with food in their bellies
and a car for them to drive
People sleeping on the concrete
still smile behind their signs
So go now be happy and be free
you, you have so much time



If you go chances are you'll come again
if you come chances are you'll go
so be mellow let it flow let it bend
I'll see you somewhere at the end

So go but be kind
you have love, love on your side
born into a family with food in their bellies
and a car for them to drive
People sleeping on the concrete
still smile behind their signs
so go now be happy and be free
you, you have so much time

So go, go but be kind

I See you sleeping only in my mind
I have been away alone this season
I waste so much time
Thinking of when I would hold you gently
And I'd look into your eyes
And I would be the one to calm your shaking
When you would cry

I miss you in my life
I miss you in my life
I miss you in my life
So miss you in my life

You hide your answers within every smile
Time and time again I'd lose my chances
To reconcile


Even if I had my time over
it would take a while
To reveal all my best intentions
That I let slip by

I miss you in my life
I miss you in my life
I miss you in my life
So miss you in my life
