Stride Of The Mind Songtext / Lyric

I took a walk out to the sun

But I just, just couldn't take it

I followed a dream

It was circular

But I just, just could not fake it



Step to the left the left the left

Step to the right the right the right

Pick up the sign the sign the sign

For a stride of the mind the mind



Simon of the desert blew into town

On the scalding tail of a bright cold wind

Slipped through the sand

Footprints emerged

Where no one was walking

Simon had been






Dropped from heaven

To a ready made world

Said I'm no Sufi

But I'll give it a whirl

We booked passage

On the Book of the Dead

Time to travel Simon said



Step to the left the left the left

Step to the right the right the right

Pick up the sign the sign the sign

On the stride of the mind the mind the mind



Come on move where dreams increase

Where every man is a masterpiece

If you want to be counted

As another kind

And you're true, pursue

Stride of the mind the mind the mind...



He bowed three times

Removed his fez

Pointed to heaven

And Simon says

The mind the mind the mind

Pick up the sign the mind the mind

It's a vertical climb the climb the climb

Stride of the mind the mind the mind

Pick up the sign the sign the sign

It's a vertical climb the climb

Take it in stride
