Lyrics | SCI Points |
Have you ever dreamed of a place far away from it all? Where the air you breathe is soft and clean, and children play in fields of green, and the sound of guns doesn't pound in your ears. |
Fairfield Iowa is near the population
center of the USA Far away a from the stress of cities. The air is much more pure There are many fair fields No loud noises or wars |
Have you ever dreamed of a place far away from it all? Where the winter winds will rarely blow, and living things have room to grow, and the sound of children who laugh as they walk off to school |
Well, the winter winds do blow, but only
for a few months There is plenty of room for expansion Maharishi School for Children is winning awards for its educational innovations, making learning fun, by adding the TM technique. |
Many miles from yesterday, before you reach tomorrow, where the time is always just today, |
Fairfield is many miles from big city
cares People live in the here and now. |
There's a Lost Horizon, waiting to be found. |
What we put our attention on tends to come to be. |
There's a Lost Horizon where you find your self living safely and happy at home. |
Through the TM technique, we experience
the Self of all beings which promotes living in accord with nature, and happiness. |
