The Autumn Sun was on the grass
Along the road in the afternoon
We quit our play to watch him pass
He held the light in his hand
The air grew soft as he came along
The staff he held was green with leaves
And in our hearts we heard a song
He held the light in his hand
Been walking a long time
Holding the light in his hand
Been walking a long time
Holding the light in his hand
Been walking a long time
Holding the light in his hand
Trying hard just to make it
Can’t get on but I want to
Trying hard not to fake it
Can’t get on but I got to
Looking in, seeing out is a lonely lifetime
No direction in mind is a lonely lifetime
Realize past yourself
That the Earth’s a song to dance to
Realize past yourself
That the Earth’s a song to dance two, three, four
Love we need some more
Dance two, three, four
Love we need some more
Before it’s too late
Before it’s too late
Time and the place are near
People who keep fighting
Follow confusion and fear
Many people gathered
Singing songs
Many people laughing yeah
Come why don’t you belong?
Can you hear your brother cryin’?
He’s cryin’ right out loud
Can you see your brother down on his knees?
Down on his knees right now
Don’t have to go the old way
They’ve been trying to fool you all along
Don’t have to do it that way
There’s a chance that way might be wrong
Many people gathered
Singing songs
Many people laughing
Come why don’t you belong?
You already belong, already belong
Already belong, come along
Already belong, come along
Already belong, come along
Come along, come along
