Yes - The Prophet Lyrics

Complimentary "The Prophet" Ringtone

Long ago a tall man told a tale of yesterday, 
Searching for the truth to life and not for just a way. 
Finding pleasure from this house his ears, they did obey; 
In his life a moment's pleasure, never to delay. 
He was lost and in his trust he found a new meaning; 
Seeing the things in diff'rent lights his life was redeemed. 

Words of peace will fill his mind and change his way of life; 
Peaceful meetings with his heart have made him more alive. 
Meeting wise old women on the cliffs of life itself; 
Asking not for pers'nal meaning, more for just himself. 
Soon we'll be as he proclaimed in a new way of living; 
Take the things you need in life but remember the giving. 

Prophecy within your mind and you will work it out; 
Prophecy that some will die but only those who doubt. 
Then you'll never worry as somtimes you used to do; 
Just remember when you're gone there's someone after you, you
