The Clark McLane Band - Turn and Return

Goodbye mindfulness
That got us so far
That breathed like the ferns, the waves and the stars
That let us be heartfelt when we had not the words
Goodbye mindfulness
Turn and return
Goodbye dignity
You were just passin' through
A well brought up child, with dirt on his shoe
With too much desire to do any good
Goodbye dignity
You did what you could
Goodbye sincerity
Where the hell have you been?
Machines got you cornered, like a mirror holds a man

Who talk to one another, solely to gain
Goodbye sincerity
Profit remains
Goodbye solitude
I'll remember you friend
Just candlelight writing, before the street cars were in
Before screens stole reason and identity
Goodbye solitude
I'll miss you and me
Goodbye intolerance
You've no business here
Just deep seated hatred, been born out of fear
With justification to a power above
Goodbye intolerance
Make way for love
Goodbye indulgence
I'm finished with you
I hope there's more comin' who are through with you too
Who laugh at your parties, your pearls and your clothes
Goodbye indulgence
I'm not one of those
