Lyrics

The Mind Will Follow


Walkin’ on down the road, free at last
Laid down my heavy load, burdens of the past
In the mountain sunshine, the air is cool and clear
In this moment lives a lifetime, and every road begins right here

It’s all good, it’s all real
Peace ain’t something you can steal
The truth is not that hard to swallow
Just put your shoulder to the wheel
The mind will follow

Great big yellow dog, doesn’t think about what he does
Neither fears what is to come, nor frets about what was
Free of apprehension, lets his feet fall where they may
Paved with pure intention, the road to Hell is not this way

It’s all good, it’s all real
Peace ain’t something you can steal
The truth is not that hard to swallow
Just put your shoulder to the wheel
The mind will follow

If nothin’ changes, nothin’ changes
Seek and find and rearrange it

Silent skis through golden trees against a purple sky
Song of mountain chickadees pierced by an eagle’s cry
From up here the sun is so close you can ride the morning rays
Disappear into the cosmos, love and laugh and dance and play

Don’t have to think about what you think
You know that you’re more than your thoughts
My thinkin’ almost always stinks
So get on up and take your shot

It’s all good, it’s all real
Peace ain’t something you can steal
The truth is not that hard to swallow
Just put your shoulder to the wheel
The mind will follow
