Adam - Richie Havens[00:00:00]
In the dawning wakening hour[00:00:21]
He'll lift his head and brush his eyes[00:00:24]
With gentle strokes[00:00:28]
That will only blindly mislead him[00:00:32]
Into the first day of creation[00:00:40]
Which he only sees in limitation[00:00:48]
Mmmm[00:00:55]
Now he sits upon his empty bed[00:01:01]
His heart is warm his heart is full[00:01:04]
And he can see[00:01:08]
But it is impossible for him to retain me[00:01:12]
For his arms are without form[00:01:20]
He cannot know the word[00:01:28]
As his mind cries out absurd[00:01:34]
Mmmm[00:01:42]
Now he's standing inside the doorway[00:01:46]
He is afraid but he believes[00:01:49]
All that he sees[00:01:53]
On the floor[00:01:57]
Where everything is merging[00:02:01]
And pictures he sees are tragic[00:02:11]
As he begins to believe in magic[00:02:18]
Mmmm[00:02:27]
Now he lies down in a hole[00:02:34]
Down in the ground where it is cold[00:02:37]
And now he knows[00:02:41]
Now he realizes his biggest mistake[00:02:47]
That he never had to grow old[00:02:55]
And he never had to grow cold and die[00:03:03]
Mmmm[00:03:18]
