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 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! That pretty little world that beams so bright That pretty little world that seems delightful Can burn! Let me learn! Let me 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 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's so I know that it really May be! Who knows, maybe All the visions that I see May be waiting just for me to say Take me there And make see it Make me feel it I know it's so I know that it really May be! Let me learn!
