FUTURE PAST

Rain streams down the window

And I recall the day we ran and how

On Brownsea Island meadow

You couldn't catch me then, you wouldn't catch me now

If it's only memory

Echoing down the hallway

In whisper as you come to me

We are growing closer

So don't you cry

For what will never last

Each moment created in time

It's all a future past

That we are living now

Change is coming down the line

I give thanks if that much stays the same

This life is not to our design

Could not have known it then, but now I see it plain

If all we are is memory

Doorways on a garden

The flowers of a century

We are growing stronger

So don't you cry

For what will never last

Each moment created in time

It's all a future past

That we are living now

So don't you cry

For what will never last

Each moment created in time

It's all a future past

So lay your gaze

On what will ever last

Each moment in time we create

It's all a future past

And we are living now
