Within You Without You

poem 3

WITHIN YOU WITHOUT YOU
Lyrics; George Harrison, 1967

We were talking – about the space between us all
And the people – who hide themselves behind a wall of illusion
Never glimpse the truth – then it’s far too late – when they pass away.

We were talking – about the love we all could share – when we find it
To try our best to hold it there – with our love
With our love – we could save the world – if they only knew.

Try to realise it’s all within yourself no-one else can make you change
And to see you’re really only very small,
And life flows on within you and without you.

We were talking – about the love that’s gone so cold and the people,
Who gain the world and lose their soul – they don’t know – they can’t see – are you one of them?
When you’ve seen beyond yourself – then you may find, peace of mind is waiting there –
And the time will come when you see we’re all one, and life flows on within you and without you.
