paroles de chanson The Balance - The Moody Blues

After he had journeyed
And his feet were sore, he was tired
He came upon an orange grove
And he rested
And he lay in the cool
And while he rested, he took to himself an orange and tasted it
And it was good

And he felt the Earth to his spine and he asked
And he saw the tree above him
And the stars
And the veins in the leaf
And the light
And the balance
And he saw magnificent perfection
Whereon he thought of himself in balance
And he knew he was

Just open your eyes and realize the way it's always been
Just open your mind and you will find the way it's always been
Just open your heart and that's a start

And he thought of those he angered
For he was not a violent man
And he thought of those he hurt
For he was not a cruel man
And he thought of those he frightened
For he was not an evil man

And he understood, he understood himself
Upon this he saw that when he was of anger or knew hurt or felt fear
It was because he was not understanding
And he learned compassion
And with his eye of compassion
He saw his enemies like unto himself
And he learned love
Then he was answered

Just open your eyes and realize the way it's always been
Just open your mind and you will find the way it's always been
Just open your heart and that's a start

Do you, do you, do you, do you realize?
Just open your eyes and realize the way it's always been
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Just open your mind and you will find the way it's always been
Just open your heart

Just open your heart and that's a start
