Stride Of The Mind Lyrics

Patti Smith

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 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 readymade world Says 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 For a 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 fez 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
