Half Past June, Beach Master - Once Upon A Time In Golden Gate Park

I met God on a bench today
In Golden Gate Park at the end of Haight
He was homeless and hungry and drunk
An ex hippie who loved new punks
Said he'd be grateful to be dead
Then he put a crazy thought in my head
If they couldn't cure the world with love
What makes people think hate would be enough

He vanished as Mary started creeping in
So I laid at the tree home to Joplin
As I pondered of a world where love is pure
Whether or not I would get there I was unsure

I saw a couple get married today
In Golden Gate Park over by Stow Lake
They seemed happy and eager to start their lives with each other
Give up their hearts
But will they feel the same 10 years from now
I ponder their fate
We all rush when's time's running out
The first to make us blush wins from the crowd

He vanished as Mary started creeping in
So I laid at the tree home to Joplin
As I pondered of a world where love is pure
Whether or not I would get there I was unsure

I saw myself in a mirror today
Every imperfection in a colorful haze
I felt young and pure and golden
Infinitely high on the path we've chosen

He vanished as Mary started creeping in
So I laid at the tree home to Joplin
As I pondered of a world where love is pure
Whether or not I would get there I was unsure
