Looking In The Future - Hawkwind

Lives of great men all remind us

We may make our lives sublime

And so departing leave behind us

Footprints in the sands of time

And with the writing I will show you

Looking in the days beyond recall

As I lecture back with the spirits of the other time

I’m living in the future

I’m looking in the future

I’m living in the future

Not a sound was heard

No call came from the bird

Only the carpet of green

From towering trees was seen

Where have they all gone?

Why was there no song?

I’m living in the future

Looking at the past
