MOODY BLUES

MOODY BLUES - The Balance lyrics

rate me

After he had journeyed,<br>And his feet were sore,<br>And he was tired,<br>He came upon an orange grove<br>And he rested<br>And he lay in the cool,<br>And while he rested, he took to himself an orange and tasted it,<br>And it was good.<br>And he felt the earth to his spine,<br>And he asked, and he saw the tree above him, and the stars,<br>And the veins in the leaf,<br>And the light, and the balance.<br>And he saw magnificent perfection,<br>Whereon he thought of himself in balance,<br>And he knew he was.<br><br>Just open your eyes,<br>And realize, the way it's always been.<br>Just open your mind<br>And you will find<br>The way it's always been.<br>Just open your heart<br>And that's a start.<br><br>And he thought of those he angered,<br>For he was not a violent man,<br>And he thought of those he hurt<br>For he was not a cruel man<br>And he thought of those he frightened<br>For he was not an evil man,<br>And he understood.<br>He understood himself.<br><br>Upon this he saw that when he was of anger or knew hurt or felt fear,<br>It was because he was not understanding,<br>And he learned, compassion.<br><br>And with his eye of compassion.<br>He saw his enemies like unto himself,<br>And he learned love.<br>Then, he was answered.<br><br>Just open your eyes,<br>And realize, the way it's always been.<br>Just open your mind<br>And you will find<br>The way it's always been.<br>Just open your heart<br>And that's a start.
