There's a full moon over India
and Gandhi lives again.
Who's to say you have to lose
for someone else to win?
In the eyes of all the people,
the look is much the same,
for the first is just the last one
when you play a deadly game.
It's about time we realize it,
we're all in this together.
It's about time we find out,
it's all of us or none.
It's about time we recognize it,
these changes in the weather.
It's about time,
it's about changes,
and it's about time.
There's a light in the Vatican window
for all the world to see
and a voice cries in the wilderness
sometimes he speaks for me.
I suppose I love him most of all
when he kneels to kiss the land,
with his lips upon our mother's breast,
he makes his strongest stand.
It's about time we start to see it,
the earth is our only home.
It's about time we start to face it,
we can't make it here all alone.
It's about time we start to listen
to the voices in the wind,
it's about time
it's about changes
and it's about time.
There's a man who is my brother,
I just don't know his name.
But I know his home and family
because I know we feel the same.
And it hurts me when he's hungry
and when his children cry.
I too am a father,
that little one is mine.
It's about time that we begin it,
to turn the world around.
It's about time we start to make it,
the dream we've always known.
It's about time we start to live it,
the family of man.
It's about time,
it's about changes,
and it's about time.
It's about peace,
it's about plenty
and it's about time,
It's about you and me together,
and it's about time.

If I remember correctly, it's from a John Denver song, but I may be mistaken.

Yes, it is John Denver, and I thought I posted this to a different board. IfI was in too big of a hurry before my Life Stream meting I may have miss-posted it, but if it was moved by someone, CL, Admin? they need to do their research, I intended to post it in Jam Session, as these are song lyrics, and not anything I wrote, not Writers' Block material, but if I misposted my bad.

God Damn, I must have been really tired, I tried to find the topic, found it in the latest topics list this morning and misread the format of the listing there, anyway, why it ended up here I still don't know. Life Stream's a great influence, but God, you're so tired afterwords that you can't think or type strait. This is so posted in the wrong place. When I take IPI I'd better just stay off line until after the semenar is over. lol I might repost this on the right board so that Hope can find it. Although, come to think of it this serves a good perpose, as a suggestion of how zoners should treat one another. Although that is not what I intended to do, but perhaps when we are tired and sort of out of it, it is easier for fate to step in and tweek things a little? Well, goodnight all, may repost this tomorrow in the right place.

Hey Heather I enjoyed reading this! Though I've listened to a lot of John Denver music I must say I've never heard this song! Thank you I've always wanted a board just for me!

Oh, good, you did find it. I'm never attempting to post anything when I'm sleep deprived again. Arg, it's like writing a letter then putting it in the wrong mail box, then running back down the block to check if it's in the right box, then putting it in the right box, then running back to check again, only to find that your sleep depervation has caused you to not only missread the house numbers but also the street sign. lmao.

Wel...She did find it. Whether it had the intended effect, we shall soon find out.
