Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Finding the world
In the smallness of a grain of sand
And holding infinities
In the palm of your hand
[Verse 2]
And Heaven's realms
And the seedlings of this tiny flower
And eternities
In the space of a single hour
[Verse 3]
Send your love
Into the future
Send your love
Into the distant dawn
[Verse 4]
Inside your mind is a relay station
A mission probe into the unknowing
We send a seed to a distant future
And we can watch a galaxy growing
This ain't no time for doubting your power
This ain't no time for hiding your care
You're climbing down from an ivory tower
You've got a stake in the world we ought to share
[Verse 5]
You see the stars are moving so slowly
Still the Earth is moving so fast
Can't you see the moon is so lonely?
She's still trapped in the pain of the past
This is the time of the worlds colliding
This is the time of kingdom falling
This is the time of the world dividing
Time to heed your call
[Verse 6]
Send your love
Into the future
Send your precious love
Into some distant time
And fix that wounded planet
With the love of your healing
Send your love
Send your love
Send your love
Send your love
[Verse 7]
There's no religion but sex and music
There's no religion but sound and dancing
There's no religion but light and color
There's no religion but sacred trance
There's no religion but the endless ocean
There's no religion but the moon and stars
There's no religion but time and motion
There's no religion just tribal scars
Send your love
Throw a pebble and watch the ocean
I see the ripples vanish in the distance
It's just the same with all the emotions
It's just the same in every instance
Send your love
There's no religion but the joys of rhythm
There's not religion but the rites of Spring
There's no religion in the path of hate
No prayer but the one I sing
[Verse 8]
Send your love
Into the future
Send your precious love
Into some distant time
And fix that wounded planet
With the love of your healing
Send your love
Send your love
[Verse 9]
Send your love
There's no religion but sex and music
There's no religion that's right or winning
There's no religion in the path of hatred
Ain't no prayer but the one I'm singing
Send your love
Send your love
Send your love
Send your love
