lyrics

Out of the mystery,
this is how it begins.

Using my senses
and using my supersenses,
I know you would illuminate us,
Changing Angel of Tomorrow,
Oh, if you could…

“Gimme a minute, I’m just about to get real…”

Invisible voices whisper in the field,
my ears are as big as satellites.
I call you now, guide me back to One Mind!

I know you would illuminate us,
Changing Angel of Tomorrow,
oh, if you could… if you could…

“…if you could gimme a minute, 
I’m just about to behave!”

The light is glowing,
the bell’s been rung.
The lily is lucid
on the crocodile tongue!

“Gimme a minute, 
I’m just about to behave!”

I’ve laid out flowers
and blessed this room
and called upon
the one you want to be…

“You might have thought you had the key.
You’d be right if you could see
the symbols of your own nature
glowing in the dark.

And, looking at this world from there,
be the Angel of Repair.
Following it all to the root,
a great Mystery, through and through.”
