about

A song to evoke the past, present and future.

lyrics

We all have to suffer changes of events
Present tense
Tomorrow never knows
When you think you’ve found a better situation
There’s a complication
That’s just the way it goes

Born in the same boat
We’re all trying to keep afloat
Sailing the same seas
Blown by the same breeze

Good times, hard times will come
Somehow, something or someone
But your time and my time is here
So let it go, look ahead, the coast is clear

You play those sad songs on your stereo
There’s nowhere else to go
There’s nowhere else to hide
Yours is just one more dream destroyed
It’s all null and void
Wounding your perfect pride

You’re sinking under
But I’ve got your number
At times like these
Who needs enemies?

Good times, hard times will come
Somehow, something or someone
But your time and my time is here
So let it go, look ahead, the coast is clear, it’s
clear

Born in the same boat
We’re all trying to keep afloat
At times like these
Who needs enemies?

Good times, hard times will come
Somehow, something or someone
But your time and my time is here
So let it go, look ahead, the coast is clear
The coast is clear
