作词 : Lightfoot | |
It was only yesterday | |
When i heard the teacher say | |
Patiently, one and two make three | |
We were children, you and me | |
Let us pray for the ones they call | |
The children of today | |
Nothin' left but promises | |
Nothin' much is certain | |
All we see is want and need across the board, why thank you lord | |
We're livin' in the glory of your care | |
Skies of blue have all turned brown | |
To the sound of cryin | |
Lord abide, let us stem the tide | |
Of broken dreams | |
Sometimes you seem to tell us | |
It's too late for prayin' | |
See the ocean wild and blue | |
Think of all that's in her | |
She will not surrender to the likes of us, but then she must | |
They tell us, wise men tell us, it's too late | |
For each child with eyes that smile | |
There'll be ten more cryin' | |
Lord abide, let us stem the time | |
Of helplessness | |
But then i guess we're livin' | |
Is it too late for prayin' | |
Nothin' here but grains of sand | |
Nothin' much worth savin' | |
Guess we've all got problems of our own to bear, and still we share | |
Tomorrow could get better than today | |
To the ones who've loved in vain | |
Will ya be beholden | |
Lord abide, let us stem the tide | |
Of broken dreams | |
Sometimes ya seem to tell us | |
It's too late for prayin' |
