Ian McDonald - Tomorrow's People – the Children of Today lyrics

Who's gonna climb the fence And smell the flowers there It'll take more than time To give us fifty lives If everyone wants to go It won't take very long But how many use their eyes or hearts To really know How many will there be I hope it's everyone To feel the earth and the sun And swim in silent seas And who will open their eyes To see what they can see And then while looking around Feel the warmth of reality Tomorrow's people are playing now And tomorrow's people could have the world Who will show us the way Or is it happening For those who want the sun To shine on everyone Even now the wall is old And falling down So love and live for the time is coming For you and all Tomorrow's people are playing now And tomorrow's people could have the world Who's gonna climb the fence And smell the flowers there It'll take more than time To give us fifty lives If everyone wants to go It won't take very long But how many use their eyes or hearts To really know Who will show us the way Or is it happening For those who want the sun To shine on everyone Even now the wall is old And falling down So love and live for the time is coming For you and all Tomorrow's people are playing now And tomorrow's people could have the world Tomorrow's people will have the world Tomorrow's people will have the world Tomorrow's people will have the world Tomorrow's people
