I want to see
What people saw
I want to feel
Like I felt before
I'd like to see
The kingdom come
I want to feel
Forever young
And I want to sing
To sing my song
I want to live
In a world where I belong
I want to live
I will survive
And I believe
That it won't be very long
If we turn, turn, turn, turn, turn
Turn, turn, turn
If we turn, turn, turn, turn, turn
Then we might learn, learn
So where's the stars?
Up in the sky
And what's the moon?
A big balloon
We'll never know
Unless we grow
There's so much world
Outside the door
I want to sing
To sing my song
I want to live
In a world where I'll be strong
I want to live
I will survive
And I believe
That it won't be very long
If we turn, turn, turn, turn, turn
Turn, turn, turn
If we turn, turn, turn, turn, turn
Then we might learn, learn
We've got to turn
We've got to turn
If we turn, turn, turn, turn, turn
Turn, turn, turn
If we turn, turn, turn, turn, turn
Then we might learn
Learn to turn, oh
What people saw
I want to feel
Like I felt before
I'd like to see
The kingdom come
I want to feel
Forever young
To sing my song
I want to live
In a world where I belong
I want to live
I will survive
And I believe
That it won't be very long
Turn, turn, turn
If we turn, turn, turn, turn, turn
Then we might learn, learn
Up in the sky
And what's the moon?
A big balloon
We'll never know
Unless we grow
There's so much world
Outside the door
To sing my song
I want to live
In a world where I'll be strong
I want to live
I will survive
And I believe
That it won't be very long
Turn, turn, turn
If we turn, turn, turn, turn, turn
Then we might learn, learn
We've got to turn
Turn, turn, turn
If we turn, turn, turn, turn, turn
Then we might learn
Learn to turn, oh

For me, this song is about taking it upon ourselves to make the world better, even in the tiniest of ways.
to change your ways for the better
This song is about turning our dreams into reality.
yeah i agree, about achieving your goals and dreams with lines like "so wheres the stars?" and the answer: "up in the sky" its simple but true, its hard to get to where u want to go but its possible. if u ever go see travis then this one of their best live songs.
i might not be thinking outside the box here, but i get the impression it's talking about there being so much to learn and too little time to learn it in - the particular verse that gives that impression is So where's the stars ? Up in the sky And what's the moon ? A big balloon We'll never know unless we grow There's so much world outside the door that's how i interpret it anyway
Ok, this is one of the greatest songs ever and the video is too. Im not too sure bout yer interpretation.....explain plz?
I shall say, its a complete"Take away" song. It takes u to a trip. The term "turn" here talks of the way we should face the turning situations in life, its very uplifting.The lyrics...i love the way he stresses on "I" part, repitively speak about the self..self oriented wishes... Lovely song, i wanna thank the person who suggested me this song !

Surely "turn" means "repent!"
You're not going to see the Kingdom Come unless you repent!
You want to feel forever young? eternal life!
In a World where you belong? Heaven!
Matthew 3:2 and 4:17 - Repent! for the Kingdom of Heaven is near!
@belteshazzar You hit the nail on the head! Thank you Jesus!
