Some will be surprised to see that good will never fade away and it will always be deeper and stronger than the hypocrisy we are condemned to live inPin It Now!
Geez, I have been from heroin for 27 years. Every time I hear this song
and close my eyes,it brings me back to the day where I use to nod and
hold a cigarette in my hand until it burned right up in between my index
finger and ring finger. Didn't feel a thing. My head would bob down and
occasionally I would lift it and look around with drooping eyelids,
scratching my nose, wishing I could get high! lol. Song takes me right
back. Clean and sober, now, for 27 years. Thank you God.
Cow Palace, San Francisco, 1979
Lyrics
He came dancing across the water
With his galleons and guns
Looking for the new world
In that palace in the sun.
On the shore lay Montezuma
With his coca leaves and pearls
In his halls he often wondered
With the secrets of the worlds.
And his subjects
Gathered 'round him
Like the leaves around a tree
In their clothes of many colors
For the angry gods to see.
And the women all were beautiful
And the men stood
Straight and strong
They offered life in sacrifice
So that others could go on.
Hate was just a legend
And war was never known
The people worked together
And they lifted many stones.
They carried them
To the flatlands
And they died along the way
But they built up
With their bare hands
What we still can't do today.
And I know she's living there
And she loves me to this day
I still can't remember when
Or how I lost my way.
He came dancing across the water
Cortez, Cortez
What a killer.
