Once Upon A Time

There is a time to walk ahead
And there’s a time to stay behind
There is a time to play along
And there’s a time to free your mind

When times were changing all across the universe
You could hear music on the dark side of the moon
It was the season of the witch
She came around to heal the blind

[Chorus]
Once upon a time
When Mars and Jupiter aligned
They said the new age of Aquarius had begun
Love was in the air
And there was music everywhere
And all the people joining in were having fun

You paid your dues, you learnt your lesson
So you know the stage is set
You can’t believe in what you see
Cause what you see ain’t what you get
Maybe we’re nothing more than footprints in the sand
And soon the flood may come to wash it all away
And yet I cannot help but think
There must be more to it than that

[Chorus]
Once upon a time
When Mars and Jupiter aligned
They said the new age of Aquarius had begun
Love was in the air
And there was music everywhere
And all the people joining in were having fun

For we’ve been told that young and old
Will learn from each other
To understand your fellow man
To care for your brother
For we’ve been told that young and old
Can teach one another
To understand your fellow man
To care for your brother

So when the future has no future
And the past has passed away
We’re left with nothing to remember
Left with nothing but today
When I hear people say that Rock’n’Roll is dead
Who will be playing for the children of the King
Then I remember the old saying
Rock‘n’Roll is here to stay
