When You Find Out Who You Are Lyrics
It's of a strange and furious time
When men did speed to pray
Along the road of discontent to gods of gold and clay

Some did seek security
Among the seas of change
And some did seek dear life to wound
A furious time and strange

But when you find out who you are
Beautiful beyond your dreams
Just look around and
Notice where you are

Just look around and notice what you see
Each moment born for you innocently
But when I see what we have made
What we have out with the mind's blade

In the blackness feel it all
Repeated faces rise and fall
With ancient goals unwondering fail
Further obscure the ancient trail

Filling with the endless years
The river of your heart's tears
I swear you have the power
As the angels do

Spread out your fingers and
Make all things new
Change the world by the things you say
By the things you love

And by the games you play
And you make each new day
It feels so funny in your mummy's tummy
Before you get born into

The world for to carry on
Remember young man of the time
Before you first went to school
How did it feel trying to live to the rule

Remember young man of the time
When your love stick
First rose free between your legs
Like a growing tree

Remember you walked with your lover
Like a gypsy and a gypsy queen
Under the stars where the sign was seen
Under the stars where

The leaves were green
Under the stars where the sign was seen
0 how many shining hearts
With love has guided me

And many I have met before
In lands across the sea
We used to speak of that ocean deep
How little words can say

It's better now to ask your friend
What makes him sad today
No one can do it for you
Make your own sky blue

Make your own dreams come true
Make it come true.
