Children Of Time (forever)

Matthew Sweet

3014, we're still around

Even the cure for cancer was found

People come to life every day

Watching their futures drifting away

And there's a nagging thought in the back of my head

Would we love forever if we'd never be dead



(Forever) I'll be yours and you be my girl

(Forever) We will live in this magical world

(Forever) Children of time we sing and we shout

(Forever) Still don't know what our lives are about



At 4060, what might we see

I'm not concerned about you and me

But the crazy people still in their right minds

With nothing better to do with their time

Than driving in their cars with our kids

Higher than we've ever been



(Forever) You be mine and I'll be your man

(Forever) We will live in this magical land

(Forever) Children of time we sing and we shout

(Forever) Still don't know what our lives are about



I see planes in the sun

Will we not remember what we've done



I'm in love with this small planet

Any other way I just wouldn't have it

God sings his final song unto man

*Come back to the river where time began

Exploring all our senses as one

Sure will be a whole lot of fun



(Forever) I'll be yours and you be my girl

(Forever) We will live in this magical world

(Forever) Children of time we sing and we shout

(Forever) Still don't know what our lives are about

(Forever) You be mine and I'll be your man

(Forever) We will live in this magical land

(Forever) Children of time we sing and we shout

(Forever) Still don't know what our lives are about

(Forever) Children of time we sing and we shout

(Forever) Still don't know what our lives are about

(Forever) Children of time we sing and we shout

(Forever) Still don't know what our lives are about
