When You Were Young

You Sit There In Your Heartache
Waiting On Some Beautiful Boy To
To Save You From Your Old Ways
You Play Forgiveness
Watch It Now
Here He Comes

He Doesnt Look A Thing Like Jesus
But He Talks Like A Gentleman
Like You Imagined
When You Were Young

Can We Climb This Mountain
I Dont Know
Higher Now Than Ever Before
I Know We Can Make It If We Take It Slow
Let's Take It Easy
Easy Now
Watch It Go

We're Burning Down The Highway Skyline
On The Back Of A Hurricane
That Started Turning
When You Were Young
When You Were Young

And Sometimes You Close Your Eyes
And See The Place Where You Used To Live
When You Were Young

They Say The Devil's Water
It Ain't So Sweet
You Dont Have To Drink Right Now
But You Can Dip Your Feet
Every Once In A Little While

You Sit There In Your Heartache
Waiting On Some Beautiful Boy To
To Save You From Your Old Ways
You Play Forgiveness
Watch It Now
Here He Comes

He Doesnt Look A Thing Like Jesus
But He Talks Like A Gentleman
Like You Imagined
When You Were Young
(talks Like A Gentleman)
(like You Imagined)
When You Were Young

I Said He Doesnt Look A Thing Like Jesus
He Doesnt Look A Thing Like Jesus
But More Than You'll Ever Know

A Sense of Humor



It seems Professor Einstein, hoping to enjoy his 72nd birthday in peace, was stuck on the Princeton campus enduring incessant hounding by the press. Upon being prodded to smile for the camera for what seemed like the millionth time, he gave photographer Arthur Sasse a good look at his uvula instead. This being no ordinary tongue, the resulting photo became an instant classic, thus ensuring that the distinguished Nobel Prize-winner would be remembered as much for his personality as for his brain.

Einstein with his Tongue Out Arthur Sasse, 1951.

An Open Horizon

Fly Students, fly high

Fly and see this world
A world of people
A world of nature
A world of endless horizons

Fly and open your eyes
To people in joy, in agony
To people living
And others, merely surviving

Fly high, Students, fly
To discover what we can do
For the world around us
And the people within

We can only do so much, perhaps
And a little at a time, at that

But believe, we can make life better
We can change this desperate world
Into one united in its diversity
And joined by its humanity

But only if we try
Try,try very hard

So fly, Students, fly
To discover yourselves,
Your happinesses
Your sorrows

Above all, uncover your strengths
And fly, Students, fly high...

Let's fly, and learn to soar


An Open Horizon Mizue Hara (translation) 2004.
