But there's a small town side of me
And I feel it closin' in
Are we blind to see
That she's dying more each day
And she's crying out to you and me
Changes come and when they're gone
They curse the fools who wait too long
So let's take care of what we have
Before the good we know goes bad
And the beauty fades and just slips away
The dirty air, the dying seas
Will this be the world we leave
To the wild and young
I say, just look at what we've done
And right before our eyes
Today's yesterday
Will be tomorrow's goodbye
Here comes the rain
And it might wash her tears away
But it doesn't change a thing
Like my brother before me
All I can do is write this song
And for her I sing
So let's take care of what we have
Before the good we know goes bad
And the beauty fades and just slips away
The dirty air, the dying seas
Will this be the world we leave
To the wild and young
I say, just look at what we've done
And right before our eyes
Today's yesterday
Will be tomorrow's goodbye
Do you ever think about
The future or the past
Do you ever wonder
How long this world will last
So let's take care of what we have
Before the good we know goes bad
And the beauty fades and just slips away
The dirty air, the dying seas
Will this be the world we leave
To the wild and young
I say, just look at what we've done
And right before our eyes
Yeah, it's right before our eyes
Today's yesterday
Will be tomorrow's goodbye
I'm just a cityboy But there's a small town side of me And I feel it closin' in Are we blind to see That she's dying more each day And she's crying out to you and me Changes come and when they're gone They curse the fools who wait too long So let's take care of what we have Before the good we know goes bad And the beauty fades and just slips away The dirty air, the dying seas Will this be the world we leave To the wild and young I say, just look at what we've done And right before our eyes Today's yesterday Will be tomorrow's goodbye Here comes the rain And it might wash her tears away But it doesn't change a thing Like my brother before me All I can do is write this song And for her I sing So let's take care of what we have Before the good we know goes bad And the beauty fades and just slips away The dirty air, the dying seas Will this be the world we leave To the wild and young I say, just look at what we've done And right before our eyes Today's yesterday Will be tomorrow's goodbye Do you ever think about The future or the past Do you ever wonder How long this world will last So let's take care of what we have Before the good we know goes bad And the beauty fades and just slips away The dirty air, the dying seas Will this be the world we leave To the wild and young I say, just look at what we've done And right before our eyes Yeah, it's right before our eyes Today's yesterday Will be tomorrow's goodbye Explain Request ×
