I've heard words from a prophet
And the dreams I call my own
I've found hope for tomorrow
And the joy that I have known
I've been anointed by my maker
By the kiss of a rancid rain
I've been appointed the caretaker
Of my planet and of my brain
Take your time cause it's owed to you
Take a life and then see it through
It's a far, far better world
It's not far this better world
Take yourself to a loving place
Yellow brick roads at a slower pace
It's a far, far better world
But not far this better world
I've heard words from a prophet
And the innocence of a child
Try not to break what you borrow
Think of sweetly for a while
Words from a prophet
Ooh, there's a joy
Yes, there's hope for tomorrow
And the joy that we have known
And the joy that we have known
And the joy that we have known
Words from a prophet
There's a joy
I had a dream
And you were there
Like an angel
You were there, you were there, you were there
Words from a prophet
Every day, every night
I see you in my life
There's a joy
I had a dream
And you were there
Like an angel
You held me close
Words from a prophet
I can see, I can see the light
I'll just reach for the light
There's a joy
I know tomorrow's gonna come real soon
And I've found the joy
