Potter's Wheel Letra

Potter’s Wheel The world is fast becoming younger The news is all they’ve ever known They’ve seen the wars, the hurt, the hunger How will they choose when thy are grown What do you tell forever’s children When it’s their turn to hurt and heal Whatever spins and grim tornedo Can also turn a potter‘s wheel Chorus Take a little clay Put it on a wheel Get a little hint How god must feel Give a little turn Listen to spin Make it into the shape You want it in Tell with your life the bloody story Teach to their dreams not burning steel It’s not in bombs where lies the glory But what’s shattered on the field The potter‘s wheel takes love and caring Skill and patience fast and slow The works it makes are easily broken Once they survive the potter’s throw Chorus Some day some children will be digging In some long forgotten ground And the’ll find out our civilization Or what’s left of it to be found They’ll find the weapons of destruction But buried deeper in the hole They’ll find a message and a promise In the sand, the potter‘s bowl Chorus Earth and water and wind conspire With human hands, and love, and fire
