A Lennon Lullaby
You can hear me
And you can see me
But you don't feel me - at all
Oh, how my voice rings
My open heart sings
But you can't touch me - at all
At all
Do you know me?
Can you show me?
I want to see it - peace
Your heart is heavy
Your mind is ready
All I want is - peace
The saddened faces
And empty places
Were all I left - behind
But still the sun shines
And on passes time
My memory is left - behind
I whisper softly
Through gentle palm trees
I linger here where I was - loved
I held your hand here
for so many years
And I felt so - loved
You see the flowers
The symbol's power
But I'm not there - anymore
I see your tears fall
I hear your hearts call
But I'm not here - anymore
The strings don't play here
Their meanings aren't clear
My ashes scattered near the - shore
The studio's empty
You'll be without me
You'll be alone by the - shore
You see me on screen
Oh, how my eyes gleamed
The chords are playing out - clear
I was so young then
I wouldn't give in
Back then the future was - clear
It won't be forever
'Til we're together
I'll meet you on angels' wings
Until then, paint it white
Little feathers in flight
Falling from angels' wings
You can hear me
And you can see me
But you can't feel me - at all
Oh, how my voice rings
My open heart sings
But you can't touch me - at all
At all
