The Prophet Lyrics - Time And A Word - Yes

(Anderson/Squire) 

Long ago a tall man told a tale of yesterday, 

Searching for the truth to life and not for just a way. 

Finding pleasure from this house his ears, they did obey; 

In his life a moment's pleasure, never to delay. 

He was lost and in his trust he found a new meaning; 

Seeing the things in diff'rent lights his life was redeemed. 

Words of peace will fill his mind and change his way of life; 

Peaceful meetings with his heart have made him more alive. 

Meeting wise old women on the cliffs of life itself; 

Asking not for pers'nal meaning, more for just himself. 

Soon we'll be as he proclaimed in a new way of living; 

Take the things you need in life but remember the giving.

Prophesy within your mind and you will work it out; 

Prophesy that some will die but only those who doubt. 

Then you'll never worry as somtimes you used to do; 

Just remember when you're gone there's someone after you, you.
