The Wheel Lyrics

[Intro]
We can be, oh, one world
We will be, oh, one world

[Verse 1]
In the jungles of the mountain
Young Nora loves the mountain
And the mountain feeds the people
And the wheel keeps on turnin'
Revolution!
And the wheel keeps on rollin'
Firmly toward tomorrow
And the mountain speaks clearly
To the people in the streets
And they sit and watch the motion
Watch it rollin' by
Some climb aboard
And roll into the future
Evolution!

[Chorus]
And the wheel keeps on turnin'
It turns and rolls forever
The wheel is life and children and it
Goes on forever and it's roll roll roll
Roll roll roll

[Post-Chorus]
And Nora sang:
We will be one country (We will be)
We will be one world (One world)
We can be, oh, one world

[Verse 2]
I dreamt I was in love again
With the lady of the mountain
The lighthouse keeper's daughter
The seer of visions and I
Smiled at the pain
Of our innocent past
Of love on the wheel
In the circle at the heart of
Devotion!
And the wind from the mountain
Blew across our love affair
And awakened the heart
To the roll of the wheel
And the night grew still
Ad no wind was blowin'
I know this was the hour
Liberation!

[Chorus]
And the wheel keeps on turnin'
It won't go away
It will not be denied and it
Goes on forever and it's roll roll roll
The circle is unbroken (Ah)

[Post-Chorus]
We will be one world (We will be)
We can be one world (One world)
We will see, oh, one world

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 3]
And Nora shouted from the top of the cathedral:
Dreams don't die
They don't wave goodbye
Unless you let them go
And watch them die in fury
"Freedom is like wheat
It must be planted softly
And watered everyday
And it must be protected
'Til it multiplies
Fills the mouth of the wind
And the hunger of all
Becomes invincible"
Ringing from the mountain
Fire from the mountain
In the heart of the volcano
The future is born

[Chorus]
We will be one world
And it goes on forever
Rolling toward tomorrow in the
Streets of forever and it's roll roll roll
The future is unspoken
Roll roll roll

[Post-Chorus]
And the wheel keeps on rolling to one world
We will be, oh
We can see, oh, one world
We will be, oh
