I used to be cruel to my woman
I beat her and kept her apart from the things that she loved
Man, I was mean but I'm changing my scene
And I'm doing the best that I can (ooh)

A day late, though it's never too late. Check out the time lapse. The Imagine Peace Tower in Iceland.

Cross-posting from the FB Status thread......this was on Sean's wall last night (they're in Japan, where it was already Dec. 8) Sean Lennon Thanks for the kind wishes everyone. I'll be with my mother tonight at Budokan for the Dream Power JL tribute. Lots of love, Sean
