Lyrics

Primitive Future

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Every person has their story, the one they vamp

and revamp

There is a way through constant sorrow

But we must do more than light the lamp

Unlike Zhivago at the window Pining Lara's love

We dare not wait the weather to join the

high suspended dove

Cause yesterday my baby girl walked up to a little boy

And I watched her curl her arms around him

And transform her fear to joy

And if I believe we've blown our purpose

Then I might have missed the chance

To see Gandhi in two babies' bodies

And watch them spin and dance.

you gotta go for fire

you gotta go for what you know so well

you gotta go for why you came this way

And Live your story tall and well

Maybe you can't believe somehow

That things can turn around

All your life it just seemed like some were destined upward

And some were destined down

And it's just not gonna be that simple for us

Cause it's not so hard to see

That's it's a huge and limitless sky describing what will be.

And There might be a disillusioning calm

in the winds that blow

But believe that changes come

Keep your dream, knowing dreams come slow

And beat your drum for those before you

And for those eager on the side

And light a candle for life's still and riotous dream to

Dwell where love abides

you gotta go for the mystery

you gotta go for the high true flight

to deny the grace in tragedy

is to deny the beauty in the owl's lonesome night

you gotta go for fire

you gotta go for what you know so well

you gotta go for why you came this way

and live your story cell to cell to cell

If we're in everything we think, and everything we do

Then I am in you and you're in me,

and only Nothing is as true.

There is a way through constant sorrow

There is a way through constant sorrow

There is a way through constant sorrow
