lyrics

In time we will see much of what she has said
In light of what we have been told
The young is wasted with youth it's been said
But those who have said it are old

We see with eyes that are open and blessed
With knowledge of what's been and gone
But hindsight puts up a barrier fence
And sometimes we cannot move on

Old Mother Nature can teach us what's right
But still we persist in what's wrong
If all we did was to love and respect
Maybe she'd leave us alone

There's no telling where this might lead, or the point
Just questions to heed or ignore
There's joy in doing for her what is right
Whether you're rich or you're poor
