The Jewel by Kimberly Haynes Lyrics
[Intro]
Oṃ maṇi padme hūṃ
Oṃ maṇi padme hūṃ
Oṃ maṇi padme hūṃ
Oṃ maṇi padme hūṃ
Oṃ
[Verse 1]
You say there's just no time
You say there's just no way
You've got a busy day
Oh yeah, you do
To waste it would be a crime
You've gotta rise with the sun
Put the car in drive
No time to go inside
Gonna make the morning migration
[Chorus]
Wonder if you know that time doesn't care
No, time doesn't air
Wonder if you know tomorrow's illusion
Yesterday's gone
Don't let the moment slip by
The jewel is waiting inside
[Verse 2]
So you are living the dream
But every day is a scheme
(And there's a leak in your soul)
Oh, that ache that calls you back home
(You've gotta run very fast)
To stay ahead of the past
And for the future you pray
For all those tomorrows [?]
[Chorus]
(I'm tellin' you now is all that we have)
Embrace all that you can
(I say there's more than all the stories your mind)
Is keeping you from the shine
Oh, don't let the moment slip by
The jewel is waiting inside
[Verse 3]
Day's over and tomorrow gets ready
To take a flight
Here in this moment
You can open your eyes
To these sweet [?]
You say you'd like to buy
A little piece of mind
You say you'd like to know
Just who is running the show
[Chorus]
(Would you be surprised to know it's always been you)
There's no one else that'd do
(Would you be surprised it's in your heart that you'll find)
Peace that goes beyond time
Don't let the moment slip by
[Outro]
No, no
Don't let it go
Oh, no, no
Don't let the moment slip by
The jewel is waiting inside
Oṃ maṇi padme hūṃ
Oṃ maṇi padme hūṃ
Oṃ maṇi padme hūṃ
Oṃ maṇi padme hūṃ
Oṃ maṇi padme hūṃ
Oṃ
[Verse 1]
You say there's just no time
You say there's just no way
You've got a busy day
Oh yeah, you do
To waste it would be a crime
You've gotta rise with the sun
Put the car in drive
No time to go inside
Gonna make the morning migration
[Chorus]
Wonder if you know that time doesn't care
No, time doesn't air
Wonder if you know tomorrow's illusion
Yesterday's gone
Don't let the moment slip by
The jewel is waiting inside
[Verse 2]
So you are living the dream
But every day is a scheme
(And there's a leak in your soul)
Oh, that ache that calls you back home
(You've gotta run very fast)
To stay ahead of the past
And for the future you pray
For all those tomorrows [?]
[Chorus]
(I'm tellin' you now is all that we have)
Embrace all that you can
(I say there's more than all the stories your mind)

[Outro]
No, no
Don't let it go
Oh, no, no
Don't let the moment slip by
The jewel is waiting inside
Oṃ maṇi padme hūṃ
