please would you tell me my friend
which direction is the way
because i'm lost, i'm confused
the reality we choose
is a long, long way from the dream


all you'll feel is pain and suffering
wading through samsara

yes but i've heard that before
from those teachers of dreams
but it's old and it's cold
i just can't feel it in my soul
am i damned to a life of extremes

all you'll feel is pain and suffering
wading through samsara

but i've looked to the east
and i've prayed in the west
what i knw, i've seen
you just couldn't imagine
where i've been
and i feel at this time
i just need to rest
and i'd like us to stay here
i would love us to stay here
would you let me stay here, please...
