The Lyrics
Knowing we'll all die
Is not a thing that's comforting
Believe that the soul lives
Cause it don't require the flesh to sing
How easy will that be, and how free will that feel
More than flesh, you must believe to make it real
Then you wouldn't have to feel death is final
Cause spirit lives, you know
What would you do to fly free like a bird
More than flesh, you know it's real
Though it seems a bit surreal
How we could fly if the flesh was gone away
Everything will be so new
A new life for me and you
More than flesh
Though I've tried to talk to you, it's hard to understand
You will have to see it with your heart's eyes
Try to see a greater plan, take your spirit
Hold it close, don't ever let it go
More than flesh is all you really need to know
Then you wouldn't have to feel death is final
Cause spirit breathes, you know
What would you do to fly free like a bird
More than flesh, you know it's real
Though it seems a bit surreal
How we could fly if the flesh was gone away
Everything will be so new
A new life for me and you
More than flesh
Is not a thing that's comforting
Believe that the soul lives
Cause it don't require the flesh to sing
How easy will that be, and how free will that feel
More than flesh, you must believe to make it real
Then you wouldn't have to feel death is final
Cause spirit lives, you know
What would you do to fly free like a bird
More than flesh, you know it's real
Though it seems a bit surreal
How we could fly if the flesh was gone away
Everything will be so new
A new life for me and you
More than flesh
Though I've tried to talk to you, it's hard to understand
You will have to see it with your heart's eyes
Try to see a greater plan, take your spirit
Hold it close, don't ever let it go
More than flesh is all you really need to know
Then you wouldn't have to feel death is final
Cause spirit breathes, you know
What would you do to fly free like a bird
More than flesh, you know it's real
Though it seems a bit surreal
How we could fly if the flesh was gone away
Everything will be so new
A new life for me and you
More than flesh

Poignant with a punch....555
Would you call original songs reincarnated as parodies for buddhist songs, or is that just me? :-)
Excellent job of describing eternal life without being preachy.
Very good parody Royce, what John said too.
