Spirits Past

	作词 : Scott-Heron
	It's getting to be the time of year
	When people once spoke of love and good cheer
	Peace on Earth and good will to all men
	And we all believed that there'd come a day
	When peace would be much more than "on it's way"
	Cause peace has been on it's way since
	I don't know when
	And the folks who decide what will be
	They haven't confided in me
	And i don't think that everybody can wait 'til then
	It makes me sad that my kids won't see
	Christmas the way it used to be
	I was so excited though we didn't have a dime
	But that seems like such a long time ago
	And I am still a child
	I know But it seems like we've lost much more than the time
	Cause the folks who decide what will be
	They haven't confided in me
	And I don't think that everybody can wait 'til then
	No, I don't think that everybody can wait 'til then
	No, I don't think that everybody can wait 'til then
