• procol harum'un 1969 tarihli a salty dog albümünden kişinin yaptığı içsel yolculukla^** ilgili bir şarkı.
  
  i sat me down to write a simple story
  which maybe in the end became a song
  in trying to find the words which might begin it
  i found these were the thoughts i brought along
  
  at first i took my weight to be an anchor
  and gathered up my fears to guide me round
  but then i clearly saw my own delusion
  and found my struggles further bogged me down
  
  in starting out i thought to go exploring
  and set my foot upon the nearest road
  in vain i looked to find the promised turning
  but only saw how far i was from home
  
  in searching i forsook the paths of learning
  and sought instead to find some pirate's gold
  in fighting i did hurt those dearest to me
  and still no hidden truths could i unfold
  
  i sat me down to write a simple story
  which maybe in the end became a song
  the words have all been writ by one before me
  we're taking turns in trying to pass them on
  oh we're taking turns in trying to pass them on
