Once, somewhere, sometime ago His eyes were clear to see, He put his thoughts into my mind, And gave my self to be He stopped me from living so unsane, I could be just what I want to be, Things appear as they really are, I can see just what I wanted to see Come on, and let it happen to you I say, I say come on, and let it happen to you You gotta open up your mind And let everything come through... Come on yeah! Well it starts like a roller coaster ride, So real it takes your breath away It slides you through your point of view, You look back to where you thought you'd stayed Your ride changes outside view, While it glides you like a neon ray, And you find you don't have to search for words, For there's nothing to be said Come on, you gotta let it happen to you Hey, come on, and let it happen to you You gotta open up your mind And let everything come through... After you trip life opens up, You start doing what you want to do And you find out that the world that you once feared, Gets what it has from you No one can ever hurt you But you know more than you thought you knew And you're looking at the world With brand new eyes, And no one can ever spoil the view Come on, and let it happen to you Hey, hey, hey come on, and let it happen to you You gotta open up your mind And let everything come through... Open up your mind, Let everything come through...
