Minor Giant Steps Lyrics

Now imagine, can you, can you, if you will
See the sunrise "colorize" the hills
All the waters running down the mountain streams
Flood of Eden bring to life this dream

Tiny steps,
Minor giant steps in the world unite
Tiny steps, in the wisdom ramp
Minor giant steps in the world unite

On the mountain side, silver thread unwind
Gently linger on, crystal waters chime
Watch the engineer get the details right!
Watch him shape the day
Out of the darkness comes the light
Out of the darkness and the night

Tiny steps, in the wisdom ramp
Minor giant steps in the world unite

Now we understand how we play a part
In the tireless games
All the beauty there is
Our perception of the dream
Sharing equally, all like players of a team

Sixtynine, we're walking on the moon
Sending those waves to see if we're alone
50 million keep choking in the sun
Nothing learned from life still dog eat dog

It's just a transmission so we don't mind
But what about God and what lies behind
Those patterns are old and make no sense
So keep on exploiting until the end

The Masterminds create the new frontiers
So "Einstein me" please I wanna see it clear

Bit by bit they took this world apart
there's no more secret left as it hit the market

It's just a transmission so we don't mind
But what about God and what lies behind
Those patterns are old and make no sense
So keep on exploiting until the end

I'm just the minor giant soul
Trying so hard to understand
The things that I cannot see
arise from inside of me

Coming to terms, to lose control
See how a man becomes a soul
If thinking is wider that the sea
arise from the dream within a dream

It's strange how life's illusions turn
They look so different around the corners
I wasn't prepared for such a journey
and now there ain't no turning back

It's strange how words can start a war
They call it the domino syndrome
(actually, it's the domino theory ;-)
A new world is hiding behind the door
A world that's always been there

I'm just a minor giant bird
Sitting on someone's shoulder
and she might undertake this journey
while I keep getting older

She once was brighter than the sun
I may have been her soulmate
She couldn't speak while she was dumb
but I couldn't figure it out

It's strange how life's illusions turn
They look so different round the corners
I wasn't prepared for such a journey
and now there ain't no turning back

It's strange how words can start a war
They call it the domino syndrome
A new world is hiding behind the door
A world that's always been there
