The Irish Rovers - Cla** of '69 lyrics

It was easy then, when laughing girls promised everything. The world was ours, and the highways didn't end. We'd grab the world, and paint it any color that we'd choose We'd spin the wheel, and knew we'd win again The Cla** of '69, has turned the corner Run to the fall, that had to come Chasing greens and skimming, of the things they should have done Staring from their yearbooks, like the children of the sun. I remember then, as they stare out from the photographs The girl most likely didn't, don't you know The ones who dropped forever, wrote like Crystal long ago. In Vietnam, to calf the second grove. The Cla** of '69, has turned the corner Run to the fall, that had to come Chasing greens and skimming, of the things they should have done Staring from their yearbooks, like the children of the sun. My memory now grows faded, like the photograph Her face still haunts me after all these years Her loving words are written by her picture, sweet and clear I'd like to share, you're laughter and you're tears. The Cla** of '69, has turned the corner Run to the fall, that had to come Chasing greens and skimming, of the things they should have done Staring from their yearbooks, like the children of the sun. The Cla** of '69, has turned the corner
