Dissolve In The Rain Lyrics - Singles - Eric Michael Jones

Sat on a bee when I sat on the swing 

It gave me a big sting on my little ding-a-ling 

Oh man I screamed and I cried 

Mom said youll live, but the bee died 

Im sure that he would rather be alive 

But he lived for this moment, defending the hive 

That bee has got to get back into the earth 

fore he can see what hes really truly worth 

Look around you boy, youre surrounded by the universe 

Mom was a hippie 

My buddy Dale went fishing alone 

His wife called me at midnight when he didnt come home 

He is presumed to have drowned 

No earthly trace of Dale was ever found 

At his service everybody was glum 

Talking bout the great things he never actually done 

Because all the dreams that he ever hoped to see 

All the beings he ever hoped to be 

Dissolved in the rain as it carried him home to the sea 

and thats poetic enough for me 

I want to live four thousand years 

Dont want no flowers growing out of my ears 

But we all know we all go 

Some people think that its a great big show 

But I dont believe in paradise or purgatory 

I believe in something 

And thats good enough for me 

So dry your tears because there aint no need to cry 

Theres no sorrow once you teach your mind to fly 

Theres no tomorrow and you wont even care when you die 

What we need is to get back into the earth 

So we can see what were really truly worth 

Ill stand naked surrounded by the universe 

All the dreams that I ever hope to see 

All the beings that I ever hoped to be 

Dissolve in the rain as it carries me home to the sea 

Dissolve in the rain as it carries me home to the sea 

So dry your tears because there aint no reason to cry 

Theres no sorrow once you teach your mind that it can fly 

Theres no tomorrow and you wont even care when you die
