George Harrison - That Which I Have Lost lyrics

That Which I Have Lost

George Harrison

He's fighting the forces of darkness limitation

Falsehood and mortality which bar him

The way back into the higher world

While his whole being is bewildered

He does not know - no law of action

Taking refuge inside himself and he's saying

I need someone to show me

Illumine my consciousness

Remove the dark from in me

And give me that which I have lost

As all had seemed lost a light from Heaven

breaking

A flash - inward illumination

Enriched his life more than any words can tell

He stood there, life renewed fresh as rain

Scales were falling from his eyes again

The bolts of his prison opening - he's saying

I found someone who showed me

Illumined my consciousness

Removed the dark from in me

And given me that which I have lost

You people don't have time to listen to him

You're too busy fighting revolutions

That keep you back down in the lower world

Your mirrors of understanding they need

cleansing

Polish away the dust of desire

Before pure light will reflect in them

You need someone to show you

Illumine your consciousness

Remove the dark from in you

And give you that which you have lost.
