Return To Fantasy

Seen from a height of a thousand miles the earth 
looks the same as it did 
How is it we can fly faster than day 
but we can't find the things we need 


Young man said the old man 
Let the youth in your heart be at rest 
We may all be dead in a year or a day 
When the devil is put to the test 
Test, test, TEST! 


The day of creation was our finest hour it's 
something we ought to defend 
But it's been so abused since the first day of light 
that no glory can come in the end 


Young man cried the old man 
There is victory in staying alive 
And if you care so little for the world we're in 
Why and what do you want to survive 


Can't we try to let the past go by, with its lessons firmly 
settled in our minds 
To our children one by one and before the darkness comes 
let us leave a world full of light of a different kind 


In truth they should meet and with love their hearts should beat 
And with patience solve the problems of our time 
It wouldn't be so hard to do, it's only up to me and you 
Let us not bequeath a life that is a crime 


Seen from a height of a thousand miles the earth 
looks the same as it did 
How is it we can fly faster than day 
but we can't find the things we need 


Young man cried the old man 
Let the youth in your heart be at rest 
We may all be dead in a year or a day 
When the devil is put to the test whoa 


Young man cried the old man 
Let the youth in your heart be at rest 
We may all be dead in a year or a day 
When the devil is put to the test whoa 


Young man, young man
