See My Life

From the albums SEALS AND CROFTS (1969) and SEALS AND CROFTS I AND II (1974)

Oh you rush to and fro to attain, though you dwell upon the shore of history
The voice you should have heard in is the letter of the Word
Come with me dear friends and you'll see
See my life, as it was yesterday. See my life, as it was today
Take my hand and I will show you. Within the moment lies the mystery

Oh you seek here and yon in your quest, and arrive at the hour of regret
Come fly without distress to the shelter of the nest
Close your eyes, your ears, and forget
Forget life, as it was yesterday. Forget life, as it was today
Take my hand and I will show you. Within the moment lies the mystery

Come, behold him. Standing there within
The Garden of Ridván, come join the caravan
I'm sure you'll understand

Oh you rush to and fro to attain, though you dwell upon the shore of history
The voice you should have heard in is the letter of the Word
Come with me dear friends and you'll see
See my life, as it was yesterday. See my life, as it was today
Take my hand and I will show you. Within the moment lies the mystery
See my life, as it was yesterday. See my life, as it was today, hey hey hey
Won't you come and come and see my life, my life, my life
