I suffer from a feeling
There's a line on the sidewalk
And i've got to step over
To the other side
I wish I could deal
In the medium of magic
But I've just got to put it into words
Refrain:
Put it into words
Put it into words
I've got to put it into words
Strong summer sun
In the afternoon
Burnin' moments of truth
Into me and you;
Wind in the wings
Is whippin' out some wisdom
But I can't understand the words
(Refrain)
Look, you speak a volume
When you know I'm in the room
Listen, will I understand?
I can use my body
In a Language all its own;
Doesn't take the place
Of words that tell you
Where I stand
Breath of the Buddha
And the tongue of the snake
It's a world of illusion
And there's no mistake
I can remember
Something I've never heard
But I've just got to put it into words
(Refrain)
