Lyrics
Outside my window
In the courtyard of the world
The gentle rain was falling
No breath of wind
No cry of beast or bird
Too quiet, too still, I turned
To see the raindrops
Like a thousand poet's words
Splash their circles on the stones
And seem to wash
Over everything with love
And for a moment the courtyard heard
Until the sun
Came bursting through the clouds
Hung up his rainbows in the sky
And with a laugh of flames said
Now go chase the gold
And the world became the world
Now we're all travellers
Some seekers and some sought
Who leave the courtyard
To be caught
In nets of self, damned, certainty and choice
But do you believe our voice?
You've got what must belong to me
I need, I'll bleed for more possesions
You, you've got no right to disagree
Bow, kneel or fear my aggresions
Thank God if sometimes
Your oyster holds a pearl
When the world remains the world
Writer(s): Peter John Sinfield, Giulio Rapetti Mogol, Mauro Pagani, Franco Mussida
