FWillie says,
Here's a story that you may not comprehend
But the parking lot will crack and bloom again
There's a world beneath the pavement, that will never end
The seeds are lying dormant, it will never end
And Willie says
If you listen you can hear the sound of birds
Here their song above the chaos, hear their words
Listen to their love song that will never end
The seeds are lying dormant, it will never end
If you listen you may hear
And the old one sits with me above the city
While I watch the madness of the world below
Then she laughs and tells me that its temporary
Underneath the wild garden waits to grow
And Willie says
When you say you are afraid I understand
In a place where one can rarely smell the land
But the ocean breeze still blows here, that will never end
The seeds are lying dormant, it will never end
And Willie says
If you listen to this tree you'll hear its song
Its the music that my people pass along
Its a dream that keeps returning that will never end
The seeds are lying dormant, it will never end
If you listen you may hear
And Willie says
Here's a story that you may not comprehend
But the forest here will rise and bloom again
There's a world beneath the pavement, that will never end
The seeds are lying dormant, it will never end
Listen to their love song that will never end
Its a dream that keeps returning that will never end
