You figure this
Calculate that
Time takes you forward
You can rarely turn back
When you look at
this You're looking at the facts
Quite surprised
at where you're at
You taste the wind
so you set your sail
With a plan like
this you just can't fail
You can unfold your
dream Light the candle
You can enter that
dream Turn the handle
And we shall see
When you view the
dream like an observer
You can see what
it means When you see, we all see
First measure this
Then treasure that
You know the meaning
And you wear the hat
You're hoping for
this Well you might wish that
The whole world
will adjust to where you're at
When you hold the
dream as an enchanter
Like a decanter
holding light
So tight
You figure this
Calculate that
Time takes you forward
You can rarely turn back
When you look at
this You're looking at the facts
Quite surprised
at where you're at
You taste the wind
so you set your sail
With a plan like
this you just can't fail
If you move a mountain
It accomplishes what?
If you move your
body You get out of a spot
You make it look
like a magical scene
It happens every
day in a different way
Day by day
Keep doing your math
You're quite amazed
at the width of your path
You figure this
and you calculate that
Time takes you forward
You can rarely turn back
When you hold the
dream as an enchanter
Like a decanter
holding light
You can unfold your
dream Light the candle
You can enter that
dream Turn the handle
And we shall see
