    Once, somewhere, sometime ago
    His eyes were clear to see
    He put his thoughts into my mind
    And gave my self to be
    He stopped me from living so unsane
    I could be just what I want to be
    Things appear as they really are
    I can see just what I wanted to see

    Come on, and let it happen to you
    I say, I say come on, and let it happen to you
    You gotta open up your mind
    And let everything come through
    Come on, yeah!

    Well it starts like a roller coaster ride
    So real it takes your breath away
    It slides you through your point of view
    You look back to where you thought you'd stayed
    Your ride changes outside view
    While it glides you like a neon ray
    And you find you don't have to search for words
    For there's nothing to be said

    Come on, you gotta let it happen to you
    Hey, come on, and let it happen to you
    You gotta open up your mind
    And let everything come through

    After you trip life opens up
    You start doing what you want to do
    And you find out that the world that you once feared
    Gets what it has from you
    No one can ever hurt you
    But you know more than you thought you knew
    And you're looking at the world
    With brand new eyes
    And no one can ever spoil the view

    Come on, and let it happen to you
    Hey, hey, hey come on, and let it happen to you
    You gotta open up your mind
    And let everything come through
    Open up your mind
    Let everything come through
