Stride of the Mind

I took a walk out to the sun
But I just, just couldn't take it
I followed a dream, it was circular
But I just, just could not fake it

Step to the left, the left, the left
Step to the right, the right, the right
Pick up the sign, the sign, the sign
For a stride of the mind, the mind, the mind

Simon of the desert blew into town
On the scalding tail of a bright cold wind
Slipped through the sand, footprints emerged
Where no one was walking, Simon had been

Dropped from heaven to a ready-made world
Said I'm no Sufi, but I'll give it a whirl
We booked passage on the Book of the Dead
Time to travel, Simon said

Step to the left, the left, the left
Step to the right, the right, the right
Pick up the sign, the sign, the sign
On the stride of the mind, the mind, the mind

Come on, move where dreams increase
Where every man is a masterpiece
If you want to be counted as another kind
And you're true, pursue
Stride of the mind, the mind, the mind
Stride of the mind, the mind, the mind

Stride of the mind, the mind, the mind
Stride of the mind, the mind, the mind

He bowed three times, removed his face
Pointed to heaven, and Simon says

The mind, the mind, the mind
Pick up the sign, the mind, the mind
It's a vertical climb, the climb, the climb
Stride of the mind, the mind, the mind
Pick up the sign, the sign, the sign
It's a vertical climb, the climb, the climb
Take it in stride (what you doing?)
