May
Vivian Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
'Cuz nothing is history
'Til the story's long been told
You can't fear tomorrow
You want to believe
And given half a chance
To show you how today
I'd say...
It took a while 'til time stopped movin'
Enough to for me to stay
Let it out, let her in, find a place to begin
And stop standin' in the way
Another life of understanding
Another life to lead
We go on, without sin, we belong deep within
It's our world, it's all we need
You can't fear tomorrow, just walk down that road
'Cuz nothing is history
'Til the story's long been told
You can't fear tomorrow
You want to believe
And given half a chance
To show you how today
I love you, I love you May

Thank you! Vivian May Williams is one of my faves. She, Lillian De Waters, Marie S Watts, and Joel Goldsmith, along with Nisargadatta, have become my go-to authors. By giving us Williams in audio you have given us a gift. Some of these authors are going out of print, which would be a great loss. They were talking, in their times, about non-duality and unity consciousness. Their wisdom shines through. Thank you for giving voice to some of them!
