MAN - The Future Hides Its Face lyrics

The ageless face of time Smiles carefree and is gone And in its wake leaves nothing Save future yet to come Now man has grown so tall And earth has grown so small He reaches for his sun and He knows it will be his The future hides its face And eternity will become so small That man will hold it in the palm of his hand And he will control it And he himself will be eternity No beginning, no end No beginning, no end The ageless face of man Will quickly smile and leave For he'll be damned himself man The future will be sand
