Song Lyrics

10 Johnny Spirit from 50,000 Buffalo

Johnny Spirit
Music and lyrics: Jonathan Panks, Steve Sklar
(c) 1994

Johnny Spirit was a lonely dreamer, soldier of awakening
Grew up believing he was free
And he was free

From the corporation tower, to the streets of desolation
He could feel the desperation
In all the dreams we've been chasing round and round
Round and round

As the darkness swirled around him
He could see the empty faces
He could feel the lonely traces
As the compassion filled the spaces in his heart
In his heart

In the stillness of his heart he heard a thousand chords
Crying out to him was the master in the forest
In the rhythm of the world, he heard harmony
And in the oneness of it all he was truly free

Johnny Spirit reached out to truth seekers
To join his voice in song
For love's the only way to get back home
To get back home

Love's the only way
Love's the only way
To get back home 
To get back home

Johnny Spirit was a lonely dreamer

Go Back
