Time Is A Book

If I could go back a hundred years or more

Back to the ages I adore

I put myself on a sailing boat

Sailing the seas, carrying my load

Put into ports of every new found land

The crew drops the anchor on my command

Down the boats, and we go ashore

But too bad, I know this can't happen anymore

Time is a book, a book of glory

And in a book of stories

You can't turn the page back anymore

If I could go back a hundred years or more

Back to the ages I adore

I'd become an inventor to discover new things

I'd find out flying with my own wings

I'd find out light and the electric train

And I'd find out how to make it rain

Yes, I should find out all those things

Although sometimes I was wrong

But I'd never find out a gun or a bomb
