Inspired by a sign I saw at the 1990 March for Animals in Washington D.C. which said "We all love life, We love all life"

 EVERYONE

©1994 JIM HARRIS

 

WE ALL DISCOVER
EACH IN OUR OWN SWEET TIME
THE THINGS WE HAVE TO DO
BEFORE WE FALL
FOR FRIEND AND LOVER
FOR REASON AND FOR RHYME
IMASSIONED BY THE POWER
OF THEM ALL
TO SHOOT THE MOON
TO CHASE THE SUN
YOU KNOW WE LOVE YOU

EACH GENERATION
SEES BETTER THAN THE LAST
THE VISION OF A VAST
ABIDING DREAM
THROUGH EVERY NATION
THE TORCH OF LIFE IS PASSED
THEIR CONSCIOUSNESS IS CAST
INTO THE STREAM
TO MINGLE THERE
TILL TIME IS DONE
YOU KNOW WE LOVE YOU

AS FATE ARRANGES
WE FLOWER IN OUR FLIGHT
OUT FROM THE EMPTY NIGHT
INTO THE DAY
TO RING THE CHANGES
ON WAVES OF SOUND AND SIGHT
TO LINGER IN THE LIGHT
AND SAIL AWAY
WITH HELP FOR ALL
WITH HATE FOR NONE
YOU KNOW WE LOVE YOU

LIFE
YOU'RE THE HORSE WE RODE IN ON
ALL WE CAN WIN ON NOW
ALL OF OUR HOPES
ARE RIDING ON YOU
AND ALL THAT WE THINK
AND ALL THAT WE DO
FROM EVERY KINGDOM
FROM EVERY POINT OF VIEW
YOU KNOW WE LOVE YOU
THINK HIGHLY OF YOU
YOU KNOW WE LOVE YOU
EVERYONE
