NEIL DIAMOND ~ BE & LONELY LOOKING SKY

Two sad songs for the price of one here, from the soundtrack of the film Jonathan Livingston Seagull.

I really love this film and all its beautiful music.



BE

Lost
On a painted sky
Where the clouds are hung
For the poet's eye
You may find him
If you may find him

There
On a distant shore
By the wings of dreams
Through an open door
You may know him
If you may
 

Be....

 As a page that aches for a word
Which speaks on a theme that is timeless
  And the one God will make for your day
 

Sing....

As a song in search of a voice that is silent
And the sun God will make for your way


~~~~~~~~~~

And we dance
To a whispered voice
Overheard by the soul,
Undertook by the heart
And you may know it
If you may know it

While the sand would become the stone
Which begat the spark
Turned to living bone
Holy, holy
Sanctus, sanctus

Be
As a page that aches for a word
Which speaks on a theme that is timeless
And the one God will make for your day

Sing
As a song in search of a voice that is silent
And the one God will make for your way




LONELY LOOKING SKY 

Lonely looking sky, lonely sky
Lonely looking sky
And bein' lonely
Makes you wonder why
Makes you wonder why
Lonely looking sky
Lonely looking sky
Lonely looking sky

Lonely looking night, lonely night,
Lonely looking night
And bein' lonely
Never made it right
Never made it right
Lonely looking night
Lonely looking night
Lonely looking night

Sleep, we sleep
For we may dream
While we may
Dream we dream
For we may wake
One more day, one more day

Glory looking day
Glory day, Glory looking day
And all it's glory
Told a simple way
Behold it if you may
Glory looking day
Glory looking day
On lonely looking sky
