Millions

Millions
We smelled your soup on the fire cooking
We saw your toys and your pencils looking bright
So bright
And yet they come from oh, so far away

We heard your flags and your banners flapping
We felt the air from from your hands all clapping time
In time
I'm sure your time is not so far away
Millions, all moving forward
Millions, all babbling crossword
Millions, all flow as water
Millions, all bright with laughter
He make you glowing
He bake you golden like the Yangtse mud
I saw your writing on paper landing
Your stamps showed bridges and temples standing still
So still
And yet they're standing oh, so far away
I, I, I, I, I saw you asking for western thinking
I say it's poison that you'll be drinking
Stay as East
As far away as dreams will let you be
Millions, all moving forward
Millions, all babbling crossword
Millions, all flow as water
Millions, all bright with laughter
He make you glowing
He bake you golden like the Yangtse mud

Millions, all moving forward
Millions, all babbling crossword
