Carole King - Time Gone by

Music Video

Song Lyrics

The rebel cry of desolation
To which we used to hearken
Echoes now in isolation
As the skies in fury darken
A thousand acts of desecration
Hundreds more continue
When y`know that you are all creation
You`re gonna fight `em with all that`s in you

I remember time gone by
When peace and hope and dreams were high
We followed inner visions and touched the sky
Now we who still believe won`t let them die

Waters dammed to overflowing
Like tears brimming over in our eyes
Sometimes it`s so hard to keep on going
When promises turn to lies
Go ahead, give in to confusion
And put aside your ideals, too
Soon you`ll see only illusion
Don`t care who`s hurt
As long as it`s not you

I remember time gone by
When peace and hope and dreams were high
We followed inner visions and touched the sky
Now we who still believe won`t let them die

Sometimes a leader emerges
And is followed for awhile
Doesn`t matter what he encourages
As long as he`s got style
Young ones conceived in a passion
Of directions we thought enlightened
Grown-up, they follow the mood in fashion
But beneath their bravado
You know they`re frightened

I remember time gone by
When peace and hope and dreams were high
We followed inner visions and touched the sky
Now we who still believe won`t let them die
