- Thanks to you Lyrics
Album: John Denver Collection This song appears on three albums, and was first released on the Different Directions album, and has also been released on The John Denver Collection - Annie¡¯s Song album. 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 they¡¯ve ever known They¡¯ve seen the wars, the hurt, the hunger How will they choose when they are grown What do you tell forever¡¯s children When it¡¯s 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 they¡¯re dreams not burning steel It¡¯s not in bombs where lies the glory But in 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 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 they¡¯ll find our civilisation 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 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
