|
Everything, everything has come to life again |
|
I have no doubts but the ice got thin |
|
What came too soon was so hard to keep |
|
So full a harvest it was hard to reap |
|
There were times seemed just like the walls would crumble |
|
Shoot from the hip and pray for trouble |
|
Stone-cold sober and a-seeing double |
|
How that midnight band could ramble |
|
Taking mansions and leaving shambles |
|
Remember other times and places |
|
Last night's dance, the glowing faces |
|
All the lights, the shadows in the hall |
|
Seeking higher peaks from which to fall |
|
Remember, we were telling you |
|
That time would stop and nations fall |
|
Now we find the lies come true |
|
Can you tell me, tell me, tell me |
|
What are we to do? |
|
Because the good old days |
|
Those good old days are all dead and gone |
|
Good-bye and bless them all, every one |
|
What was true has passed the test |
|
Just as well forget the rest |
|
Half of what you saw was not yours to know |
|
Let it go. |
|
Everything has come to life again |
