I can see it

Beyond that road lies a shining world.
Beyond that road lies despair.
Beyond that road lies a world that´s gleaming.
People who are scheming.
Beauty!
Hunger!
Glory!
Sorrow!
Never a pain or care.
I´m liable to find a couple of surprises there.
There´s a song he must sing;
It´s a well-known song.
But the tune is bitter
And it doesn´t take long to learn!
I can learn!
That pretty little world that beams so bright.
That pretty little world that seems delightful
Can burn!
Let me learn! Let me learn!
For, I can see it!
Shining somewhere!
Bright lights somewhere invite me to come there
And learn!
And I´m ready!
I can hear it!
Sirens singing!
Inside my ear I hear them all singing
Come learn!
Who knows, maybe
All the visions I can see
May be waiting just for me
To say take me there, and
Make me see it!
Make me feel it!
I know it´s so
I know that it really
May be!
Let me learn!
