How come it seems so long ago,
That Mister Jagger said, time was on our side?
We thought we'd live forever then,
Our thoughts and dreams,
Wide as the boundless sky.
Out on the road, Jack Kerouc.
We travelled West and journeyed deep inside.
We looked for God in everything,
I've yet to find him, do you think the prophets lied?
But there in your eyes,
I found a truth they couldn't hide.
Take me back,
To those yesterdays
Take me back
To those carfree days,
Filled with purple haze
Take me back
Remember all the festivals?
We built a nation of love beads and tie dye shirts
We laid our blankets on the grass
And rocked with Jimi, making love until it hurt
But times they change and so did we,
