Lyrics - The Light by Donovan

I
Died ... and
I sighed
As the chains of the flesh left me
As the moans and the groans
Of the friend sent me
On my way to the
Land of the
Dead
I flashed ... that my soul was
Unharmed
As my earth form
I shed
That the image of death had been
A thought in my head
And the truth was a spirit am
II sussed ... that my life had been a lesson
Chosed by me
For to purify my
Soul that
I may be
Worthy to shine forth the
Lightthe
Lightthe
Light
As
I moved ever up-ward
A
Great
Light there came
More feeling than seeing
And it filled me with
Shame
Like a
Bright
Shining mirror reflecting my being
My present condition of
Soul
I was seeing
I
Beheld ...
Forms of
Great
Beauty
That shone forth the
Light
With love vibes they met me
A cast off my fright
Those great souls of
Ages long passed
I praised the
Great
Souls of the
Ages
Who care for our needs
Who lovingly nurture
Wisdom's bright seed
Showing the way to the
Lightthe
Lightthe
Light
I ached ... for the womb and the
Earth
And another time around
Seking circumstances
The best that can be found
To give me the lessons to learn
I was
Born ... and thru childhood
My soul still rembembered the
Light
And thru teens
I fought fiercely
For my vision of the
Light
When
I saw
Mum and
Dad had forgot
The
Light,
The
Light,
The
Light!
