If you can count from one to three
You will understand
The size of the eternity
If you know your ABC's
Everything that happens
You can write for all to see
And the circles come around
Simply proving what you've found
And all things which passed before
Become a part of what is now
And if when you lived you gave
A little energy
Life can be your own to save
And the circles come around
Never quite the same
But defined by sight and sound
And the circles come around
Simply proving what you've found
And all things which passed before
Become a part of what is now
And the circles come around
Simply proving what you've found
And all things which passed before
Become a part of what is now
You will understand
The size of the eternity
If you know your ABC's
Everything that happens
You can write for all to see
And the circles come around
Simply proving what you've found
And all things which passed before
Become a part of what is now
And if when you lived you gave
A little energy
Life can be your own to save
And the circles come around
Never quite the same
But defined by sight and sound
And the circles come around
Simply proving what you've found
And all things which passed before
Become a part of what is now
And the circles come around
Simply proving what you've found
And all things which passed before
Become a part of what is now
