The Soul Is the Rock |
| The soul is the rock and the rock will not be moved |
| Nothing is disputed, yet nothing is disproved |
| And the seeds of the earth that were planted long ago |
| Still yield a better harvest than the rock was prone to grow |
| Say what you like to, do what you do |
| Everyone’s sleeping now two by two |
| Bats in the roof, cats in the hall |
| Dust on the stairway, gnats on the wall |
| Big rain comin' |
| Big rain comin' this way |
| Rain on the rock |
| Rain on the rock |
| Rain on the rock |
| The sea is the space which the rock has displaced |
| The mind is some stranger that some soul has embraced |
| And somewhere between, in a no-man's land of dreams |
| The heart becomes the soldier yet the rock is not redeemed |
| Say what you like to, do what you can |
| Live like a sheep, die like a lamb |
| Bats in the roof, cats in the hall |
| Dust on the stairway, gnats on the wall |
| Big rain comin' |
| Big rain comin' this way |
| Rain on the rock |
| Rain on the rock |
| Rain on the rock |
| The soul is the rock and the rock will always roll |
| In circles 'round the sun doing rings around the pole |
| When the mind is not sure what the heart will do next |
| The rock becomes the master and the road becomes what’s left |
| Late one night when the moon shone down |
| We went to the mill on the edge of the town |
| She wore white, I wore black |
| The town was sleeping when we got back |
| Big rain comin' |
| Big rain comin' this way |
| Rain on the rock |
| Rain on the rock |
| Rain on the rock |
| The soul is the rock and the rock will not be harmed |
| Though man must be cheated just as women must be charmed |
| And the mind is the light for the heart which cannot see |
| The soul becomes the stranger but the rock will always be |
| Say what you like to, do what you do |
| Everyone’s sleeping now two by two |
| Bats in the roof, cats in the hall |
| Dust on the stairway, gnats on the wall |
| Oh. |
| Big rain comin' |
| Big rain comin' this way |
| Rain on the rock |
| Rain on the rock |
| Rain on the rock |
| The soul is the rock and the rock will not be moved |
| Nothing is disputed yet nothing is disproved |
| And the seeds of the earth that were planted long ago |
| Still yield a better harvest than the rock was prone to grow |
| And the seeds of the earth that were planted long ago |
| Still yield a better harvest than the rock was prone to grow |
