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 But I'm liable to find a couple of surprises there... There's a song I must sing, it's a well known song, But the tune is bitter And it doesn't take long to learn, I can learn! Pretty little world that beams so bright That pretty little world that seems delightful cambered Let me learn...let me learn... For I can see it, shining somewhere Bright lights somewhere invite me to compare and learn And I'm ready, I can hear it silent singing Inside my ear, I hear them all singing of love! Who knows maybe all the visions that I see May be waiting just for me to say Take me there and make me see it, make me feel it I know it so, I know that it really may be... Let me learn!
