Revelation Lyrics by Doug Carn

Revelation

1973

I had a thought that I could change
A thing that was not real
I shared with it my space and my time
But oh how sad it made me feel
My self spoke out awake from this dream
No matter how real your mind can make it seem
A ray of light came down to my brain
A thought so bright I could never be the same
A revelation
A transformation
A thought so clear and bright
A thought that brought the light
You know I had a lot to lose
When I said that I would try
To change a life to something
It's creation would deny
But I no longer abide my friend
For in this life I've been born again
A ray of light came down to my brain
A thought so bright I could never be the same
A revelation
A transformation
A thought so clear and bright
A thought that brought the light
A revelation
A transformation
When the time comes
Your spirit will live forever
If you've been true to self
Your time is almost here
Wake up and fly to heaven
Lovers of a perfect love
The whole universe will share
Beings of a brand new world
Make a wish upon a star
That you will see yourselves
As who you really are
Pray to your God with your mind
To reach your goal
May he reveal up your thought
To your soul
They used my time
They used my mind
They said they would be my friend
But now the burning is gone
And my self has gone on home
I'll never be the same again
A revelation
A transformation
A thought so clear and bright
A thought that brought the lights
