Back in Orangefield
I used to gaze out
My classroom window and dream
And then go home and listen to Ray sing
“I believe to my soul” after school,
Oh that love that was within me
You know it carried me through
Well it lifted me up and it filled me
Meditation contemplation too
Oh we’ve got to go back
Got to go back
Got to go back
Got to go back
For the healing, go on with the dreaming
