Zion (Hebrew: צִיּוֹן Ṣiyyôn), also transliterated Sion, Sayon, Syon, Tzion or Tsion, is a place name often used as a synonym for Jerusalem. The word is first found in 2 Samuel 5:7 which dates from c.630–540 BCE according to modern scholarship. It commonly referred to a specific mountain near Jerusalem (Mount Zion), on which stood a Jebusite fortress of the same name that was conquered by David and was named the City of David. The term Tzion came to designate the area of Jerusalem where the fortress stood, and later became a metonym for Solomon's Temple in Jerusalem, the city of Jerusalem and "the World to Come", the Jewish understanding of the hereafter.
In Kabbalah the more esoteric reference is made to Tzion being the spiritual point from which reality emerges, located in the Holy of Holies of the First, Second and Third Temple.
The etymology of the word Zion (ṣiyôn) is uncertain. Mentioned in the Bible in the Book of Samuel (2 Samuel 5:7) as the name of the Jebusite fortress conquered by King David, its origin likely predates the Israelites. If Semitic, it may be derived from the Hebrew root ṣiyyôn ("castle") or the Hebrew ṣiyya ("dry land," Jeremiah 51:43). A non-Semitic relationship to the Hurrian word šeya ("river" or "brook") has also been suggested.
Hey you...
I remember you, I think I'm well acquainted with your kind.
You like to make things turn around to so calm, or no calm...
No place inside my space so.
I have a newborn diamond mind.
I think I'm on to other worlds that I've drawn or you've drawn...
Why are you so complicating, I'm not on to you...
I know whatever severs my heart, I'll find that the blade belongs to you, or even you.
If I find my resolutions, where else do I go...
(Oh) I'd like to see these answers, babe.
I bet they go so on and so on...
(Chorus)
So on and so on and so on and so on...
So on and so on and so on and so on...
So on and so on and so on and so on...
So on and so on and so on and so on...
I can see what bewilders me more...
than the presence of a weak divine...
I'm contemplating my synopsis of you.
I'm so on or so wrong...
Illustrate Prince Be well.
He's some surrealistic mistletoe.
But now Nocturnal interludes go.
So on for so long...
Why are you so complicating.
I'm not on to you...
(everybody loves the sunshine)
Well, I've heard that before, but does it apply to me or even you.
If I find my resolutions where else do I go...
I guess I'll follow the shooting stars 'cause they go so on for so long...
(Chorus)
I bet you had trouble finding you
So whatever stimulates your mind
I can sing those thoughts your thinking
Cus my songs are your songs
(So what about Prince Be?)... well
(I think he is great)
But everthing's being held together in my palms... your palms
Why are you so complicating?.
I'm not on to you...
Oh. whatever you are in my eyes
I know it's so surprising to me... or even you
If I find my resolutions where else do I go...
Tell me if I limit you 'cause I can go so on for so long...
