Fogelberg Dan Holy Road Lyrics

Holy Road Lyrics

Last night I dreamed I was looking down
On the planet Earth spinning
round
  and round
And as I cast my gaze about
I watched her lovely
light go out
The light went out
And floating in the black of space
I
was looking into God's own face
And in his hands he held this tiny
Earth
He said "Well ain't it a shame what they've
  done to her
After
I'd shown them to the holy road
The holy road
After I'd shown them to the
holy road
The holy road"
"Well, I laid a bounty in their hands
And only
gave them ten commands
But they never learned their lessons very well
And
they drove my garden straight to hell
That's when they fell off of the holy
road
The holy road
That's when they fell off of the holy road
The holy
road"
(And then he told me)
"Well the popes were frauds and the kings
 
were fools
And your presidents only dupes and tools
Of the money makers
and the Chiefs of Staff
Who worshipped of that golden calf
They turned
their backs upon the holy road
The holy road
They turned their backs upon
the holy road
The holy road"
(And then I told him)
"Well, you made the
sun and you made the sky
The things that crawl and the things that
fly
And then you made the human race"
And he said
"Well, everybody
makes mistakes
I thought they'd want to walk the holy road
The holy
road
I thought they'd want to walk the holy road
The holy road"
Even
though it was just a dream
It seemed as real as it could seem
And often
dreams the truth forebodes
You got to get back children on the holy
road
Get back children on the holy road
Get back children on the holy
road
Get back children on the holy road
Holy road, holy road
Got to
get back on the holy road
The holy road
Got to get back on the holy
road
Holy road
Got to get back on the holy road
The holy road
On
the holy road
The holy road
On the holy road people
On the holy road
now
On the holy road now
Holy road
On the holy road children
On the
holy road
Holy holy, holy road...
