How many sums must a girl get right Before she enters the world?
Yes, 'n' how many prayers must a preacher create Before she's not just a girl?
Yes, 'n' how many times are the magic words said Before they can be overturned?
The answer, my friend, is written in the rules.
How many times must a split come about Before we can see what is real?
Yes, 'n' how many cries must all of us hear Before we suddenly feel?
Yes, 'n' what dreams must be shared so that we all know That now is the time to heal?
The answer, my friend, is missing and not found.
How many years does a building exist Before it's needed no more?
Yes, 'n' how many ways can expression go on When we're seeking to answer the call?
Yes, 'n' what is the core of our living today, And how do we get through the door?
The answer, my friend, is too deep for me. But maybe someone can say.
With apologies to Bob.
