Dougie MacLean - Rite Of Passage Lyrics

Font:

Align:

Take the young ones to the desert

Teach them how the arrow flies

How to smell the beast upon the wind

And run with mother nature's loving lies

Show them how to balance what is wrong

And what is right

And make their own directions

Through the longest darkest night

Chorus:

Oh you need that rite of passage

Before you can continue on

That brave self understanding

You can lean your dreams upon

You may want for children

You may crave for man and wife

But you need that rite of passage

To the summer of your life

Show the children to the master

Put the tools into their hands

Show them how to work the grain

And how to hold the ever moving sand

Place with them the knowledge of the far

And of the near

And lead them through the waiting storms

That will never ever clear

Chorus

It's a sad deluded vision this creature of our time

Its body now is broken

Its smile it rarely has the chance to shine

It stands so high and mighty

With its never ending needs

While somewhere in the beating heart

The earth it vainly pleads

Chorus
