Maybe I'll just whisper
neither humble neither proud
Listen if you care to,
but I will not sing too loud
No, not tonight

Just before i'm over and out
I wanna sing of better times,
I wanna sing of hope
We've heard those empty promises
Sound like such a joke
And so I stumble
So hard to say, so difficult
Sometimes I am not able
To separate my dreams from false cliches

CHORUS
But the more and more I hear it
I feel the spirit rise
The people here are talking 'bout
The oneness of our lives
Maybe I will turn away, maybe you will run
It just maybe a foreshadowing
Of what's to come

So anything can happen,
I don't believe in fate
I wont try to convince you
'Cause it's getting kind of late
There it is. Just before i'm over and out
My parting shot - just to say you hold the reins

But the more and more I hear it
I feel the spirit rise
The people here are talking bout
The oneness of all life
Maybe I will turn away, maybe you will run
It just maybe a foreshadowing
Of what's to come

And while you struggle.
to realize this earthly paradise
Isn't so far above us
So put away those poisonous ideas
You know it's just ideas
They're the only... enemies 'round here
I see your eyes are closing,
didn't mean to keep you up
There's more that I could say now
but I guess i've said enough
So sleep well. Just before I'm over and out
Yes, sleep well, just before I'm over and out

The more and more I hear it,
I feel the spirit rise
The people here are talking about
the oneness of all life
Maybe I will turn away, maybe you will run
but it just may be,
a foreshadowing of what's to come
