In cleaning up my PC and hard drive I came across music that I had converted and saved years ago. One song "This is not America" from the movie Falcon and the Snowman really struck home. With all that is going on in our country, the music seams appropriate for today.
The Lyrics are:
A little piece of you
The little peace in me
Will die
For this is not America
Blossom falls to bloom
This season
Promise not to stare
Too long
For this is not a miracle
There was a time
A storm that blew so pure
For this could be the biggest sky
And I could have
The faintest idea
Snowman melting
From the inside
Falcon spirals
To the ground
So bloody red
Tomorrows clouds
A little piece of you
The little piece in me
Will die
For this is not America
There was a time
A wind that blew so young
For this could be the biggest sky
And I could have the faintest idea
This could be the biggest sky
This could be a miracle
This could be etc...
Music can easily be found and listened to on youtube.
Put down the bong, man. I think you're done. :-)
I don't know about Prophets, but they have profited off the song.
I for one have always liked the song and have it on my Ipods.
Good tune.
I have it on my computer as well.
