It has also been released on The John Denver Collection - Calypso album, as a live version. The world is fast becoming younger The news is all theyve ever known Theyve seen the wars, the hurt, the hunger How will they choose when they are grown What do you tell forevers children When its their turn to hurt and heal Whatever spins a grim tornedo Can also turn a potters wheel Take a little clay Put it on a wheel Get a little hint How God must feel Give a little turn Listen to a spin Make it into the shape You want it in Tell with your life the bloody story Teach to theyre dreams not burning steel Its not in bombs where lies the glory But in whats shattered on the field The potters wheel takes love and caring Skill and patience fast and slow The works it makes are easily broken Once they survive the potters throw Take a little clay Put it on a wheel Get a little hint How God must feel Give a little turn Listen to a spin Make it into the shape You want it in Some day some children will be digging In some long forgotten ground And theyll find our civilisation Or whats left of it to be found Theyll find the weapons of destruction But buried deeper in the hole Theyll find a message and a promise In the sand, the potters bowl Take a little clay Put it on a wheel Get a little hint How God must feel Give a little turn Listen to a spin Make it into the shape You want it in Earth and fire and wind conspire With human hands, and love, and fire Words and Music by Bill Danoff Related: |
