Lyrics Jon Anderson – Twice In A Lifetime

Twice upon a lifetime
Was a mystic and a singer
Who sang too many songs of love
Lost faith in her belief

When a sailor runs away to sea
He’s looking for his chance at destiny
In the end he’ll realize
That all is fair in love and dreams of mystery

Planes fly in with food and love
To save the starving millions
While planes fly in to
Feed the hungry guns of disbelief
Politicians cry for votes
Shaking hands here with the devil
Change the system
Is the only song they’ve got for singing

When a dreamer moves from side to side
He’s looking for the words to justify
Like a singer lost in her belief
She sings away her fear with every sigh
In the end you’ll realize that all is truth
In love and mysteries of life

Twice upon a lifetime
Is just long enough to witness
All is all that dances round you
Singing as we live
