Out n out n out n out
out and out and free again
spread my arms to the far horizons
this is the day we'll all remember
plant the seeds to feed our children

out n out

And you and I'll sail on a sea
with islands with fountains and torrents of love

That make me whole
that make me strong
that make me laf
that keep me from wrong

I started a walk a thousand miles long

I saw it coming all the fire and the rain and I went
down to some doctor which/witch to find the right therapy
What's the problem what's the problem?
All the world lies beneath the sea and its heart
wont beat for me any more
and more is what I need
My friends are all buried in suits of seaweed
and I'm so confused I'm so confused
things aren't the way they used to be

I'm breathin in all the air

That make us whole
that make us strong
that make us laf
that keep us from wrong

I'm steppin on thru all the grime and the wails of all those
chokin throats and fallin limbs
those fossil screams from leather tongues
bodies collecting bullets all
torn up and bloodied
gone are the days of leisure vision
You and I play in the cut and thrust of dreams of freedom

That break us down
that still the will
to shut us up
where we can do no wrong

I started a walk a thousand miles long

To where you and I'll sail on a sea
with islands with fountains and torrents of love

That make us whole
that make us strong
that make us laf
that keep us from wrong
