Within You, Without You by The Beatles
We were talking-about the space between us all
And the people-who hide themselves behind a wall of illusion
Never glimpse the truth-then it's far too late-when they pass away.
We were talking-about the love we all could share-when we find it
To try our best to hold it there-with our love
With our love-we could save the world-if they only knew.
Try to realise it's all within yourself
No-one else can make you
change
And to see you're really only very small,
And life flows within you and without you.
We were talking-about the love that's gone so cold
and the people,Who gain the world and lose their soul
-They don't know-they can't see-are you one of them?
When you've seen beyond yourself-then you may find,
peace of mind,Is waiting
there-
And the time will come when you see
We're all one, and life flows on
within you and without you.
