The Salt Of Joy
Dan Reed Network · Other Songs - Dan Reed Network
The salt of joy will rise
We wait for peaceful years
As we hold back our fears
I wish you could see what I see
A place where we could be
Where words and thoughts are truly free
I wish you could feel what I feel
Love for everyone Falling from the sun, Falling from the sun
Why do we bleed each other
Wear a smile while we break our brother's back
Someday we'll leave it all behind
And blow the devil's little mind
How can we lead each other
When we can't believe our brother's words
Someday we'll open our virgin eyes
And the Salt of Joy will rise
Hold on for better days
For peace of mind we'll pray
We hear the distand call
We'll watch their temples fall
I wish you could see what I see
A place where we could be
Where words and thoughts are free
I wish you could feel what I feel
Hate for all the crimes that poison precious minds,
They poison precious minds
Why do we bleed each other...
Tears fall from hopeful eyes
The Salt of Joy will rise
