John Lennon, one of the Beatles, some would say the important one but I’d disagree with that, was killed twenty-two years ago today. 🙁
One of my favorite Lennon tunes is “Jealous Guy” from John’s Imagine album. It once had different words. Once it was a song called “Child of Nature”…
On the road to Rishikesh
I was dreaming more or less.
And the dream I had was true.
Yes, the dream I had was true.I’m just a child of nature,
I don’t need much to set me free.
I’m just child of nature,
I’m one of nature’s children.Sunlight shining in your eyes
As I face the desert skies,
And my thoughts return to home.
Yes, my thoughts return to home.I’m just a child of nature,
I don’t need much to set me free.
I’m just a child of nature,
I’m one of nature’s children.Underneath the mountain ranges,
Where the wind that never changes,
Touch the windows of my soul–
Touch the windows of my soul.I’m just a child of nature,
I don’t need much to set me free.
I’m just a child of nature,
I’m one of nature’s children.
Peace, John.
