Migration Lyrics - James Taylor

Distant hands in foreign lands 

Are turning hidden wheels 

Causing things to come about 

Which no one seems to feel 

All invisible from where we stand 

The connections come to pass 

And though too strange to comprehend 

They affect us nonetheless, yes 

Once again a time of change 

O the change makes music 

And the children will dance 

See the pieces of the picture rearrange themselves 

It feels just like a symphony to me, 

With nothing left to chance 

Just look over your shoulder 

It's out of you hands 

It's over for now 

Leave behind what you can 

You can always return 

The rhythm remains unbroken 

Unspoken but loud and clear 

It's a slow vibration. migration 

Mystery muse, how I hunger for an answer 

Unsung song, how I long to play the changes 

Hidden rhythm, haven't I always been your dancer 

Sacred secrets of the meaning to my dreaming. migration
