Lyrics for People Have The Power by PATTI SMITH:
| | | Artist: | PATTI SMITH |
| | Album: | Unknown | | Track: | People Have The Power | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 63 | | | | Lyrics: | I was dreaming in my dreaming
of an aspect bright and fair
and my sleeping it was
broken
but my dream it lingered near
in the form of shining valleys
where the pure air
recognized
and my senses newly opened
I awakened to the cry
that the people have the
power
to redeem the work of fools
upon the meek the graces shower
it's decreed the
people rule
The people have the power
The people have the power
The people have the
power
The people have the power
Vengeful aspects became suspect
and bending low as
if to hear
and the armies ceased advancing
because the people had their ear
and the
shepherds and the soldiers
lay beneath the stars
exchanging visions
and laying
arms
to waste in the dust
in the form of shining valleys
where the pure air
recognized
and my senses newly opened
I awakened to the
cry
Refrain
Where there were deserts
I saw fountains
like cream the waters
rise
and we strolled there together
with none to laugh or criticize
and the
leopard
and the lamb
lay together truly bound
I was hoping in my hoping
to recall
what I had found
I was dreaming in my dreaming
god knows a purer view
as I surrender to
my sleeping
I commit my dream to you
Refrain
The power to dream to
rule
to wrestle the world from fools
it's decreed the people rule
it's decreed the
people rule
LISTEN
I believe everything we dream
can come to pass through our
union
we can turn the world around
we can turn the earth's revolution
we have the
power
People have the power ... | | | |  Reddit | X / Twitter | Facebook | Copy link |
