Time Gone By
Carole King
The easy, fast & fun way to learn how to sing: 30DaySinger.com
The rebel cry of desolation To which we used to hearken Echoes now in isolation As the skies in fury darken A thousand acts of desecration Hundreds more continue When why'know that you are all creation You're gonna fight 'em with all that's in you I remember time gone by When peace and hope and dreams were high We followed inner visions and touched the sky Now we who still believe won't let them die Waters dammed to overflowing Like tears brimming over in our eyes Sometimes it's so hard to keep on going When promises turn to lies Go ahead, give in to confusion And put aside your ideals, too Soon you'll see only illusion Don't care who's hurt As long as it's not you I remember time gone by When peace and hope and dreams were high We followed inner visions and touched the sky Now we who still believe won't let them die Sometimes a leader emerges And is followed for awhile Doesn't matter what he encourages As long as he's got style Young ones conceived in a passion Of directions we thought enlightened Grown-up, they follow the mood in fashion But beneath their bravado You know they're frightened I remember time gone by When peace and hope and dreams were high We followed inner visions and touched the sky Now we who still believe won't let them die
