he won't think twice about

the little things he can go without

his cares find higher ground

the lives of others around

his lease of time and space

will not show on his face

with what I've got I'll make do

I'm only passing through

he shines on days when even the sun's not around

stands on beliefs that are old tradition found

and he swears on it like he's been there

a warning from the past

and he'll share a tale and convince you

and pray that it will last

talks about this future place

says I'll need a lawyer to fight my case

he believes in the master plan

says he's living in borrowed land

he shines on days when even the sun's not around

stands on beliefs that are old tradition found

and he swears on it like he's been there

a warning from the past

and he'll share a tale and convince you

and pray that it will last

with every soul he saves his eyes fill with joy

another human being the word did not destroy

he shines on days when even the sun's not around

stands on beliefs that are old tradition found

and he swears on it like he's been there

a warning from the past

and he'll share a tale and convince you

and pray that it will last

he won't think twice about the little things he can go without
