Here I sit with my legs and wonder why
The world spins around my head from time to time
The best of both worlds seems attainable through my eyes
But sometimes confusion steps in to block the light
Inquiring times would like to know what takes my time
Just thinking back on days that’s passed me by
Do you ever wonder why the sun doesn’t fall from the sky?
And if it did would the world still spin inside my mind?
Would you like to see the best of both worlds with me?
Just open your mind
Would you like to see the best of both worlds with me?
Just open your eyes
Just walking by this old tree says to me
If we cut this baby down would it tell a great story?
Of brave men, 200 years gone by
Farmers with pitchforks who were willing to die
City streets and buildings would rise
And freedom would never die
Would you like to see the best of both worlds with me?
Just open your mind
Would you like to see the best of both worlds with me?
Just open your eyes
Seems like 16,000 years have passed us by
But these old trees leaves grow green yet another time
And millions of people may walk on by
And most won’t care that the street tells time
‘Cause they’re too tied up in their daily lives
But one day they’re gonna realize why this tree tells time
Why this tree tells time
Why this tree tells time
Would you like to see the best of both worlds with me?
Just open your mind
Would you like to see the best of both worlds with me?
Just open your eyes
Open your eyes
Open your eyes
