Moments In Time Songtext

I was born of nineteen fifty nine That'll be the day that rock'n'roll died Far away on a dark and stormy night Brought into the new decade The sixties and her pearly gates A hard rain fell and the times forever changed In the back of a car with the wind in our hair Speeding down the road going anywhere Was it true we were really going nowhere? And sixty eight rang like a ricochet The world arose to a nightmare day Some people found their voice and a world to change One small step for man Was one giant leap for mankind How I wish that we could walk that way tonight On a Woodstock field in the heat of the night Rock'n'roll music defined the times The sound of generations collide These moments in time Live on forever in my mind Even though we've said goodbye Live on forever in my mind And the seventies king of rock'n'roll In Gracelands lost his throne There won't be any comebacks tomorrow No Elvis, Beatles or the Rolling Stones Why they were taken away? God only knows We formed a band we were haunted by their ghosts I remember it now like it was yesterday Playing those guitar at a frantic pace Somehow we got lost along the way These moments in time Live on forever in my mind Even though we've said goodbye Live on forever in my mind Through the London streets in a taxi cab A radio played an epitaph Imagine, the dream is over Oh I've been silent way too long You never thought I knew what was going on You probably think that you were in this song Oh the tragedies behind the dramas Belie the truth and the honesty I have seen the dirt and the glory These moments in time Live on forever in my mind Even though we've said goodbye Live on forever in my mind
