I Once Knew A Man - Charles Manson

I once knew a man

So love he was to be

I once knew a man

Whose heart open you could see

Sadder than a dream

Is that he should pass us by

Sadder than the scheme

Is in the dreams within the sky

Lonelier than I

Could I ever dream of a place to go

Much further than before

Time as it seems would be passive

If it were knocking at your door

Why wonder why dream in a night

Why argue hate and fight

The love that grows in the hearts of the men that I see

Is happenin' is comin' home forever

In the path I should wander alone

And a dream would not be mine to say

And a dream no the dream

Never do more than it seems should I obey

The love in my heart says

Give yourself away

The love in my heart says

You’re loose today

Now is forever lasting constant in the mind

Illusions with memories scheming at my end of the mind

All the time

One and one are one if you find

A man who’s got to find

Of the man who lives behind the gun

Of the man that lives behind the gun

Where has his love gone and come from

He is your brother

He is your loved one
