Cat Stevens Quotes

Underneath her kiss I was so unguarded Every bottle’s empty now and all those dreams are gone Ah, but the song carries on … so holy

Give me time forever here in my time

O caritas, O caritas nobis semper sit amor mos perituri mortem salutamus — ah, ah sola resurgit vita

Well I rode a while, for a mile or so Down the road to the 18th Avenue And the people I saw were the people I know And they all came down to take a view

Oh I can’t keep it in; I can’t keep it in, I’ve gotta let it out I’ve got to show the world; world’s got to see, See all the love; love that’s in me

Sing a song of love and truth We’ll soon remember if you do When all things were tall And our friends were small And the world was new

Her clothes are made of rainbows And twenty thousand tears Shine through the spaces Of her golden ochre hair

Her breath a warm fire In every lovers heart A mistress to magicians And a dancer to the gods

She moves like and angel And seven evening stars Dance through the window Of her universal house

As years went by the boy grew high And the village looked on in awe They’d never seen anything like The boy with the moon and star before And people would ride from far and wide just to seek the word he spread "I'll tell you everything I've learned," And "Love", is all he said.

Now I’m not making love to anyone’s wishes, Only for that light I see ‘Cause when I’m dead and lowered low in my grave, That’s gonna be the only thing that’s left of me

Oh I’m on my way I know I am, But times there were when I thought not Bleeding half my soul in bad company, I thank the moon I had the strength to stop

Oh I’m on my way, I know I am, Somewhere not so far from here All I know is all I feel right now, I feel the power growing in my hair Sitting on my own not by myself, Everybody’s here with me I don’t need to touch your face to know, And I don’t need to use my eyes to see

Now come and join the living, its not so far from you And its getting nearer, soon it will all be true Oh peace train sounding louder

Now I've been crying lately, Thinking about the world as it is. Why must we go on hating? Why can't we live in bliss?
