I stood upon the listed bridge dividing different images

Logic verses emotion
A mountain stream verses the ocean
Will we ever learn?
Logic verses emotion
Politicians carry the motion
Will we ever learn?

I'll take you upstream
Up to my origin
My water pure as glass
My beauty everlasting
I was here before you
A million years before you
I can only warn you
I'll be here when you're gone

"Leave my house alone
I won't leave my home"
Said the old lady
Kneeling by the river-bank crying
"Leave our valley alone
You're destroying our home"
Chorused the creatures
Watching as their paradise disappeared
I stood upon the listed bridge dividing different images

I'll take you downstream
Down where they turn me green
I suffer the indignity
Of administering your poisons to the sea
The impurity of maturity
Teach them all the appreciation of beauty

"Leave my house alone
I won't leave my home"
Said the old lady
Kneeling by the river-bank crying
"Leave our valley alone
You're destroying our home"
Chorused the creatures
Watching as their paradise disappeared under the water

I stood upon the listed bridge dividing different images

Logic verses emotion
A mountain stream feeding an ocean
Politicians go through the motions
Displaying such depth of devotion
Logic verses emotion
Seems to be a lot of confusion
There is no forgone conclusion
There is no simple solution
The answer lies in your emotions
The answer lies in your emotions
Let them speak to you
