Lyrics
There's a place, where the mind doesn't matter
I can feel it deep inside and I want to be there
You don't care about power and money
When you're down in the center, and your soul is laid bare
And I know ...
I wanna be down in the center, I wanna be down in the center, yeah
Lord take me please ... down to the center
There was a time when I fought for survival
Food and shelter were the tools of my trade
And I've had friends, I've had power and money
Never missed at thing, but I was always afraid
'Cause I knew ...
I'd never be down in the center, No I'd never be down in the center, no
Lord take me please ... down to the center
(INSTRUMENTAL BREAK - DOUBLE TIME!)
On the road to peace and salvation
Take the wrong turn, and trouble's waiting there
But happiness lives, I can feel it inside of me
Down in the center, where my soul is laid bare
And I wanna be down in the center, I'm gonna be down in the center, yeah
Lord take me please ... down to the center ... of my soul.
