Imagine what you wantThen get out of the wayRemember energy follows thoughtSo be careful what you sayBe careful what you ask forMake sure it's really what you wantBecause your mind is made for thinkingAnd energy follows thoughtYour mind is in controlEven when you do not knowAnd if you let it idleAin't no telling where it'll goWherever you are sleepingAnd your dreams take you awayGo on with your dreamingAnd listen to what they sayAnd if you hear spirits talkingTheir wisdom can't be boughtApply it to your thinkingAnd energy follows thoughtYour mind is in controlEven when you do not knowAnd if you let it idleAin't no telling where it'll goImagine what you wantAnd get out of the wayRemember energy follows thoughtSo be careful what you say
~ Willie Nelson, Energy Follows Thought, from A Beautiful Time
