Gowan Living In The Golden Age
(Lawrence Gowan) "All's well", say the tower bells And have for many years But, "Not so", say the ones who know Through the veil of tears A cold place is the world they face Though one they never made Held back by the cruel attack They remain afraid And dream to share the light again Here we're living In the golden age The world has never Set a brighter stage While many ragged souls are bleeding Some have just begun to fight Can't change an angry world Overnight Old scores, settled years before Must they live again To run wild with the future child And to bring new pain Dark days seem to find a way To pass their sins along To sons born on a planet torn Where they don't belong We dream to share the light again Here we're living In the golden age The world has never Set a brighter stage While many ragged souls are bleeding Some have just begun to fight Can't change an angry world Overnight (repeat chorus 4 times to fade)
