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[EL GALLO]

He's 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

Burn

Let me learn

Burn

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!

I can see it!

He can see it!

Shining somewhere!

Shining somewhere!

Those lights not only glitter but once there

They burn!

I can see it!

I can hear it

He can hear it

Sirens singing

Sirens singing[EL GALLO]

Don't listen close or maybe you'll never

Return!

I can hear it!

Who knows—maybe

All the visions I/he can see

Maybe waiting just for me/him to—

Say—

I can see it

Say—

Shining somewhere

Say—

Let me see it

Say—

Take me there

And make me a part of it

Make me see

Make

Those shining sights inside of me

Him see it

Make me feel

Make

Those lights inside

Don't lie to me!

Him feel it

I know/He knows it's so—

I know/He knows that it really may be!

Just what I always waited for

This is what my life's created for!

Let me/him learn!
