I come to an old and strange town house
And get a welcome from a floating mouse.
I see clear faces of chairs and tables smiling
The dripping fog in the lamps is shining
Narrow opinions have started burning
Voices whispering in room three
There’s no one there only a living sea
A wave is foaming:
Get out of your personal mind jail
I hesitate and my face turns pale
Then doubts dive into a slurping ceiling
Tide is turning
Change your mind
So much learning
Search and find
Narrow opinions have started burning
Soft stairs lead me to the roof
Sweet smells pass my way
Turning carpets
don’t want to stop to move
They blow clouds away
Now the tide is turning,
now the tide is turning
Now the tide is turning,
now the tide is turning
Tide is turning
Change your mind
So much learning
Search and find
Narrow opinions have started burning
I leave this old and wise town house
Understood the signs now I think it new
