Learning is a lifelong effort. "Consider a language ... language serves to describe a combination of colored squares on a surface. The squares form a complex like a chessboard. There are red, green, white and black squares. The words of the language are 'red', 'green', 'white', 'black', and a sentence is a series of these words. They describe an arrangement of squares in an order." -- Ludwig Wittgenstein, philosopher (20th century)

Raindrops Keep Falling On My Head and Expression Of Faith by Bj Thomas


Raindrops Keep Falling On My Head

Raindrops are falling on my head

and just like the guy who's feet are too big for his bed,

nothing seems to fit

those,

raindrops are falling on my head, they keep falling

so I just did me some talking to the sun,

and I said I didn't like the way he got things done,

sleeping on the job

those,

raindrops are falling on my head they keep falling

But there's one thing, I know

the blues they sent to greet me won't defeat me.

It won't be long 'till happiness steps up to greet me

Raindrops keep falling on my head

but that doesn't mean my eyes will soon be turning red.

Crying's not for me, cause

I'm never gonna stop the rain by complaining

because I'm free

nothing's worrying me

It won't be long till happiness steps up to greet me

Raindrops keep falling on my head

but that doesn't mean my eyes will soon be turning red

crying 's not for me

Cause I'm never gonna stop the rain by complaining

because I'm free

Nothing's worrying me



Expression Of Faith

I have walked on the high wire

With no net to catch me

And I have stood in the spotlight

Where each flaw could be seen

And I've anteed my faith

To the mercy of strangers

'Cause when you ride on the big ride

You don't ride for free


And if we're only brief candles

Let's burn for a day

If we're only poor players

Let's rush to the stage

And if we don't know the ending

Let's begin anyway

It starts in your heart

An expression of faith

It starts in your heart

An expression of faith


Well the north wind is freezing

And the thunderclouds gather

Still we scatter the new seed

And we trust in the sun

And though this world is uncertain

We deliver our children

To life's great adventure

The promise of love


If we're only brief candles

Let's burn for a day

And if we're only poor players

Let's rush to the stage

And if we don't know the ending

Let's begin anyway

It starts in your heart

An expression of faith

It starts in your heart

An expression of faith


Some call it wisdom

And some call it pain

To find out the truth

To discover it's name

But when all that we know

Doesn't change anything

Expressions of faith

Are all that remain


If we're only brief candles

Let's burn for a day

If we're only poor players

Let's rush to the stage

And if we don't know the ending

Let's begin anyway

It starts in your heart

An expression of faith

It starts in your heart

An expression of faith
