It is largely because as a society we are so ignorant about the past-particularly the past that engendered the first Industrial Revolution, the human and environmental traumas it caused, and the pain, the tragedy, of its decades of immiseration-that we can believe that the future might be untouched with any of that." -Kirkpatrick Sale, Rebels Against The Future, 1995 ================================================================= "Most of the time I'm clear focused all around Most of the time I can keep both feet on the ground I can follow the path I can read the sign Stay right with it when the road unwinds I can handle whatever I stumble upon I don't even notice she's gone Most of the time. Most of the time it's well understood Most of the time I wouldn't change it if I could I can make it all match up I can hold my own I can deal with the situation right down to the bone I can survive and I can endure And I don't even think about her Most of the time. Most of the time my head is on straight Most of the time I'm strong enough not to hate I don't build up illusion 'til it makes me sick I ain't afraid of confusion no matter how thick I can smile in the face of mankind Don't even remember what her lips felt like on mine Most of the time. Most of the time she ain't even in my mind I wouldn't know her if I saw her She's that far behind Most of the time I can even be sure If she was ever with me Or if I was ever with her Most of the time I'm halfway content Most of the time I know exactly where it went I don't cheat on myself I don't run and hide Hide from the feelings that are buried inside I don't compromise and I don't pretend I don't even care if I ever see her again Most of the time" ========================================================================= "Remember when the music Came from wooden boxes strung with silver wire And as we sang the words, it would set our minds on fire, For we believed in things, and so we'd sing. Remember when the music Brought us all together to stand inside the rain And as we'd join our hands, we'd meet in the refrain, For we had dreams to live, we had hopes to give. Remember when the music Was the best of what we dreamed of for our children's time And as we sang we worked, for time was just a line, It was a gift we saved, a gift the future gave. Remember when the music Was a rock that we could cling to so we'd not despair, And as we sang we knew we'd hear an echo fill the air We'd be smiling then, we would smile again. Oh all the times I've listened, and all the times I've heard All the melodies I'm missing, and all the magic words, And all those potent voices, and the choices we had then, How I'd love to find we had that kind of choice again. Remember when the music Was a glow on the horizon of every newborn day And as we sang, the sun came up to chase the dark away, And life was good, for we knew we could. Remember when the music Brought the night across the valley as the day went down And as we'd hum the melody, we'd be safe inside the sound, And so we'd sleep, we had dreams to keep. And I feel that something's coming, and it's not just in the wind. It's more than just tomorrow, it's more than where we've been, It offers me a promise, it's telling me "Begin", I know we're needing something worth believing in. Remember when the music Came from wooden boxes strung with silver wire And as we sang the words, it would set our minds on fire, For we believed in things, and so we'd sing" ========================================================================= "Darling you send me I know you send me Darling you send me Honest you do, honest you do Honest you do, whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh You thrill me I know you, you, you thrill me Darling you, you, you, you thrill me Honest you do At first I thought it was infatuation But woo, it's lasted so long Now I find myself wanting To marry you and take you home Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh You, you, you, you send me I know you send me I know you send me Honest you do Whoa-oh-oh, whenever I'm with you I know, I know, I know when I'm near you Mmm hmm, mmm hmm, honest you do, honest you do Whoa-oh-oh, I know-oh-oh-oh I know, I know, I know, when you hold me Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh, whenever you kiss me Mmm hmm, mmm hmm, honest you do At first I thought it was infatuation But woo, it's lasted so long Now I find myself wanting To marry you and take you home I know, I know, I know, you send me I know you send me Whoa-oh-oh-oh, you you you you send me Honest you do" ====================================================================== "I let time go lightly when I'm here with you, I let time go lightly when the day is through. I keep a watch on time when I've have work to do, I let time go lightly with you. Morning, a time for breaking ground and sowing seeds, and yet we give up our sunshine so we can buy what we need. That leaves the evening, to share a fire with a friend or two, to loose sight of the hours To go lightly with you I let time go lightly when I'm here with you, I let time go lightly when the day is through. I keep a watch on time when I've got work to do, I let time go lightly with you. Old friends, they mean much more to me than the new friends, Cause they can see where you are, and they know where you've been. Music, has been my oldest friend, my fiercest foe, cause it can take me so high, (High.....) Yes it can make me so low. When I was a child my mother would help me along She'd rock me to sleep and sing me a song. So I learned to love the music of all the tunes in my mind the changing of chords, the rhythm of time. I let time go lightly when I'm here with you, I let time go lightly when the day is through. I keep a watch on time when I've got work to do, I let time go lightly with you. Yes I let time go lightly with you, and a fire, and a friend or two With you and a fire and a friend or two A friend or two and you" ====================================================================== "Of course I picked a rainy night To try to find our past The street lights all were flickering The leaves were falling fast I walked down the winding road Looked up through the trees And I saw the corner window That you once shared with me It was Old College Avenue And in the time of having you I remember it as if it were today The tiny room and the single bed Though the tangled trails of time Have led us far astray The membrance seems to stay And through all the roads That led me on And through all the years That you've been gone I have found that it would never go away It was Old College Avenue And in the time of having you I remember it as if it were today That fall turned into winter The winter into spring And all the while, you led me through The sweet awakening But summer never came that year It's what you went to find And you took my future with you And you left your past behind It was Old College Avenue And in the time of having you I remember it as if it were today The tiny room and the single bed Though the tangled trails of time Have led us far astray The membrance seems to stay And through all the roads That led me on And through all the years that you've been gone I have found that it would never go away It was Old College Avenue And in the time of having you I remember it as if it were today I remember you As if It were Today" ====================================================================== "Remember me, when the candlelight’s are gleaming, Remember me at the close of a long, long day. It would be so sweet when all alone, I'm dreaming, Just to know, you still remember me. The sweetest songs belong to lovers in the gloaming, The sweetest days are days that used to be, The saddest words I ever heard were words of parting, When you said, "sweetheart, remember me." You told me once that you were mine alone forever, And I was yours 'til the end of eternity. But, all those vows are broken now and we will never, Be the same except in memory. A brighter face, may take my place when we're apart, dear, A sweeter smile and a love more bold and free. But, in the end fair weather friends may break your heart, dear. If they do sweetheart, remember me" ========================================================================= " If today was not an crooked highway If tonight was not a crooked trail If tomorrow wasn't such a long time Then lonesome would mean nothing to me at all Yes, and only if my own true love was waitin' If I could hear her heart a-softly poundin' Yes, only if she was lyin' by me Then I'd lie in my bed once again. I can't see my reflection in the waters I can't speak the sounds that show no pain I can't hear the echo of my footsteps Or remember the sound of my own name Yes, and only if my own true love was waitin' If I could hear her heart a-softly poundin' Yes, only if she was lyin' by me Then I'd lie in my bed once again. There's beauty in the silver singin' river There's beauty in the rainbow in the sky But none of these and nothing else can touch the beauty That I remember in my true love's eyes Yes, and only if my own true love was waitin' If I could hear her heart a-softly poundin' Yes, only if she was lyin' by me Then I'd lie in my bed once again" ======================================================================= " Oh I'm sailin' away my own true love I'm sailin' away in the morning Is there something I can send you from across the sea From the place that I'll be landing ? No, there's nothin' you can send me, my own true love There's nothin' I wish to be ownin' Just carry yourself back to me unspoiled From across that lonesome ocean. Oh, but I just thought you might want something fine Made of silver or of golden Either from the mountains of Madrid Or from the coast of Barcelona ? Oh, but if I had the stars from the darkest night And the diamonds from the deepest ocean I'd forsake them all for your sweet kiss For that's all I'm wishin' to be ownin'. That I might be gone a long time And it's only that I'm askin' Is there something I can send you to remember me by To make your time more easy passin' ? Oh, how can, how can you ask me again It only brings me sorrow The same thing I want from you today I would want again tomorrow. I got a letter on a lonesome day It was from her ship a-sailin' Saying I don't know when I'll be comin' back again It depends on how I'm a-feelin'. Well, if you, my love, must think that-a-way I'm sure your mind is roarmin' I'm sure your thoughts are not with me But with the country to where you're goin'. So take heed, take heed of the western wind Take heed of the stormy weather And yes, there's something you can send back to me Spanish boots of Spanish leather" ======================================================================= "With your mercury mouth in the missionary times And your eyes like smoke and your prayers like rhymes And your silver cross, and your voice like chimes Oh, who do they think could bury you ? With your pockets well protected at last And your streetcar visions which you place on the grass And your flesh like silk, And you face like glass Who among them do they think could carry you ? Sad-eyed lady of the lowlands Where the sad-eyed prophet says that no man comes My warehouse eyes, my Arabian drums Should I put them by your gate Oh, sad-eyed lady, should I wait ? With your sheets like metal and your belt like lace And your deck of cards missing the jack and the ace And your basement clothes and your hollow face Who among them can think he could outguess you ? With your silhouette when the sunlight dims Into your eyes where the moonlight swims And your match-book songs and your gypsy hymns Who among them would try to impress you ? Sad-eyed lady of the lowlands Where the sad-eyed prophet says that no man comes My warehouse eyes, my Arabian drums Should I put them by your gate Oh, sad-eyed lady, should I wait ? The kings of Tyrus with their convict list Are waiting in line for their geranium kiss And you wouldn't know it would happen like this But who among them really wants just to kiss you ? With your childhood flames on your midnight rug And your Spanish manners, and your mother's drugs And your cowboy mouth and your curfew plugs Who among them do you think could resist you ? Sad-eyed lady of the lowlands Where the sad-eyed prophet says that no man comes My warehouse eyes, my Arabian drums Should I leave them by your gate Oh, sad-eyed lady, should I wait ? Oh, the farmers and the businessmen they all did decide To show you the dead angels that they used to hide But why did they pick you to sympathize with their side ? How could they ever mistake you ? They wished you'd accepted the blame for the farm But with the sea at your feet and the phony false alarm And with the child of a hoodlum wrapped up in your arms How could they ever, ever persuade you ? Sad-eyed lady of the lowlands Where the sad-eyed prophet says that no man comes My warehouse eyes, my Arabian drums Should I leave them by your gate Oh, sad-eyed lady, should I wait ? With your sheet-metal memory of Cannery Row And your magazine-husband who one day just had to go And your gentleness now, which you just can't help but show Who among them do you think would employ you ? Now you stand with your thief, you're on his parole With your holy medallion which your fingertips fold And your saintlike face and your ghostlike soul Who among them do you think could destroy you ? Sad-eyed lady of the lowlands Where the sad-eyed prophet says that no man comes My warehouse eyes, my Arabian drums Should I leave them by your gate Oh, sad-eyed lady, should I wait ?" =================================================================
