Memories and visions


I took you there for what it's worth
Showed you where the treasure was buried
High on a hill, you looked over yonder
At the vast expense

And wide on, wide on either side, sitting side by side
In full communion with the spirit
I have found, we had achieved
That state profound

One that cannot be broken
No matter how much the world intrudes
This is for the greater good in the long run
We will prevail and find equilibrium

(Equilibrium) in these memories
Memories and visions
Equilibrium in these memories
Visions (memories, visions)

Saw a robin in the hedge, came back again
In a year's time, same time of the year
It was quite clearIt's the same one from last winter

One this time we saw some kind of synchronicity
That we find when we let go into the war
Took you there again on a high of yourself
Looking over yonder with a sense of wonder

Find equilibrium
In these memories and visions
Find equilibrium in these memories
Visions, visions (memories, visions)

Memories and visions
Memories and visions
Memories and visions
Forevermore, forevermore

High up from the hillside
Looking out at the vast expense
In communion, communion with the nature all around

Side by side
Heart open wide
In communion with, with the spirit
And these memories and visions

Memories, memories and visions
Oh, memories, memories and visions
Oh, memories, oh, memories and visions
Oh, memories, memories and visions
Memories and visions

Memories and visions (memories and visions)
Memories and visions
Memories and visions (memories and visions)
Memories and visions
Memories and visions (memories and visions)

And that ain't all
That ain't all there is (memories and visions)
That ain't all there is
That ain't all there is (memories and visions)
Memories and visions
That ain't all there is memories and visions
Memories and visions

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
