This song shares a message from beyond this plane about a place not far we all hope is real but most don’t remember , this writer remembers and tries to say what so many have said in different ways he’s explaining why it’s not discussed and that not many can hear or understand and believe it althoug...
[Verse 1]
Found that man reported missing
He wandered in his home
It don't seem too bad if you consider
Just what he's been through
It seems he met up with a gang of thieves
Who mistook him for a man of means
They locked him up, then found he had no money
And so they let him go again
Now he's back at home and happy
Just to see the kids
[Chorus]
I wish that I could really tell you
All the things that happened to me
And all that I have seen
A world full of people, their hearts full of joy
Cities of light with no fear of war
And thousands of creatures with happier lives
And dreams of a future with meaning and no need to hide
Oh, keep it dark
[Verse 2]
It seems strange to have to lie
About a world so bright
Tell instead a made up story
From the world of night
[Chorus]
I wish that I could really tell you
All the things that happened to me
And all that I have seen
A world full of people, their hearts full of joy
Cities of light with no fear of war
And thousands of creatures with happier lives
And dreams of a future with meaning and no need to lie
No need to hate, no need to hide
Oh, keep it dark
