Dreams of a Kitten

Page 125

Memories of happiness kept in vain

The target tomorrow is one step beyond

For lilies of mercy lost on a pond

They cry out for freedom to the lighthouse above

They are angels of victory, peace and love

Visions of Odin dark and oblique

Mind over matter which all men seek

A vague understanding with no recourse

And a fond remembrance .... of Crazy Horse

Just ride away

And travel right out through space and time

Try and find a way

Of leaving the illusion behind

And in this sleep your mind will be awakened

To the calling of a dream that lies within

You're just a child who has but to remember

That in yourself you just found your best friend

So ride away

And let your mind go through its metamorphosis

And try and find a way

To bring your sunken love back to the surface

Sail on silver clouds straight through the fire

Like a lily pad adrift on a windless sea

Clinging to the breast of Mother Nature

Together sailing beautiful and free

Ride away

It's said that Crazy Horse had the power to dream himself into

the real world

And leave the illusion behind

[Double Chant]

So ride away

And don't recall the things that are best forgotten

And try and find a way

Of picking from the barrel the one that's rotten

The key to peace is sitting on your shoulders

So knock upon the door and you walk on in
