Galahad - Before, After And Beyond lyrics

Part One: Transcendence As we transcend the realms of mere mortality Our souls released as we salute infinity Visions like these exist in our minds Chasing our dreams, forever, all time Part Two: Heaven Was And Will Be Past life fascinations Meddling with the spirits Seance and science Similar or separate Strange ways, in the old days Looking back with affection (and a wry smile!) We've seen it all before And I guess we'll see it again Trying to be so clever Beating the natural at its own game We'll never build a perfect world We'll never build a perfect world Before, after and beyond Looking to the future Planning, speculating Peculiar priorities Not always in order Utopian ideals Dreams of Nirvana (heaven was and will be!) We've seen it all before And I guess we'll see it again Trying to be so clever Beating the natural at its own game We'll never build a perfect world We'll never build a perfect world Before, after and beyond Dereliction of our duties In current situations Half-hearted lip service Of limited duration By those who Have the power to Help us to Overcome our Worldly problems And solve them Once and for all We've seen it all before And I guess we'll see it again We're trying to be so clever Beating the natural at it's own game We'll never build a perfect world We'll never build a perfect worid Before, after and beyond We'll never build a perfect world Whatever happened to that perfect world? Before, alter and beyond Past Imperfect Present Imperfect Future Imperfect Forever Imperfect
