Jon Anderson - Song Of Seven lyrics

rate me

In the meeting place I sit beside, betwixt the points of heaven<br />

I befell a friendly atmosphere revolving around seven<br />

Oh, that number mystified my soul and captured within feelings<br />

Those of doubt and understanding, hand in hand they set me reeling<br />

Met me a stranger, he came here to town<br />

Bearing gifts full of promises, discoveries of light<br />

Said me many reasons why my merry tale<br />

Could be justified and just both together entwined<br />

I tell you a reason, he said, "Bless you, you fool, you fool"<br />

You want "so belief," yet you want so much<br />

More," you seeker<br />

Now I see you're baffled, yet again you administer fear<br />

Of the unexpected, you don't know the score<br />

Everywhere you look you release parts of your senses<br />

And everywhere there's purpose in answer to all your dreams<br />

I can hear you saying what a dreamer, what a fool to life<br />

Isn't it a pity that he won't come back to earth<br />

Haven't you imagination, and is it not available<br />

How you can be sooner or later than your thinking<br />

Haven't you imagination and is it so impossible<br />

That you ask of everything so your eyes can see clearly<br />

So in an instant your story bound<br />

A desert, the underground, on mountains high<br />

A glacier, the heat of the day<br />

City jungle, the sky at night<br />

In space on a starry night<br />

An atmosphere impossible<br />

So you never really care<br />

So we talk about the strength of dreams<br />

And we talked at length of every dream<br />

And we talked about the strength of dreams<br />

And we talked about the strength of dreaming<br />

I befell a friendly atmosphere revolving around seven<br />

Oh, that number mystified my soul and captured within feelings<br />

Those of doubt and understanding, hand to hand they set me reeling<br />
