Old Mother Earth - Nektar

Catch me if you can I just can't stop falling
Mother of my dreams I'll end my days with you
Don't let me down stay with me now
The river of your dreams will carry me forever
To treasures still unknown and love I've yet to see
Don't stay away hold tight and say
At the start of it all
I really thought we'd come through
You said greed had evolved
I couldn't take in that view
Now tell me the truth
Is a rich man better served
Are the ways of this world so bad
That I can't stand up to you
Show me a freedom that this world can earn
('Cause your lady is waiting)
Cross all your bridges and step down to old Mother earth
(She is always worth saving)
At the break of that day
Deliberations came through
They said what can be done
Is it too late to choose
Now who can we trust
Who can we believe
Does a man have to beg so hard
That he's down on his knees
Out of the shadows a light will emerge
(Now your freedoms evolving)
Take it with both of your hands it's time to asert
(Make a show I'll be coming)
Show me a freedom that someone can give in return
('Cause your lady is waiting)
Cross all your bridges and step down to old mother earth
(She is always worth saving)
Out of the shadows a light will emerge
(Now your freedoms evolving)
Take it with both of your hands it's time to asert
(Make a show I'll be coming)
Show me a freedom that someone can give in return
('Cause your lady is waiting)
Cross all your bridges and step down to old mother earth
(She is always worth saving)
Show me a freedom that this world can earn
('Cause your lady is waiting)
Cross all your bridges and step down to old mother earth
(She is always worth saving)
