TRUE TREASURE


What no man can own, no man can take. YAHWEH

Walk on, walk on
What you got they can't steal it
No they can't even feel it. WALK ON 

And love is not the easy thing
The only baggage you can bring
Is all that you can't leave behind. WALK ON 

What you don't have you don't need it now
What you don't know you can feel it somehow
What you don't have you don't need it now
You don't need it now, you don't need it now. BEAUTIFUL DAY 

What we have we're gonna keep, always
What we've lost we don't need, always. ALWAYS

My father is a rich man, he wears a rich man's cloak.
He gave me the keys to his kingdom (coming)
Gave me a cup of gold
He said "I have many mansions
And there are many rooms to see"
But I left by the back door
And I threw away the key
And I threw away the key. THE FIRST TIME

We're gonna break the monster's back
Yes we are
Lay down your treasure
Lay it down now brother. LOVE AND PEACE OR ELSE

Mister I ain't got nothing
But it's more than you've got
These chains no longer bind me
Nor the shackles at my feet. SILVER & GOLD
 
You bury your treasure where it can't be found
But your love is a secret that's been passed around
There is a silence that comes to a house
Where no-one can sleep
I guess it's the price of love
I know it's not cheap. ULTRA VIOLET (LIGHT MY WAY)

Every day I have to find the courage
To walk out into the street
With arms out
Got a love you can't defeat
Neither down or out
There's nothing you have that I need
I can breathe. BREATHE
