Thomas J. Dooley

REMEMBER THE SILENCE

Something is in the air some don\'t even care

The doors are locked the windows are closed

What does tomorrow hold

 

Sitting still as the sitar sounds

Hear the meditated reverberations all around

Now go inside and remember the silence

 

As the soul moves on as the love stays behind

Looking to the knowledge at this time

What does tomorrow hide

 

Sitting still as Ravi makes the sitar sing

Feel the meditated reverberations all around

Only inside we remember the silence

 

The days move by so slow not sure where to go

Some entranced by words of the uneducated mind

Praying for the resurrection of peace at this time

 

Sitting still as a lotus as the sitar rings

See the meditated reverberations of the soul

Everything you will find when you remember the silence
