The Future by Teenage Fanclub Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I know, I waste time, don't know what I'm doing
Past life to explore, to show what's true
Sit down, take time to show what needs showing
All I showed was a false door that the dead walk through

[Chorus]
Thoughts of ancient times
Gonna open up my head
But it's hard to walk into the future
When your shoes are made of lead

[Verse 2]
Slow down, take time to know what's worth knowing
Walk out the front door and see what's new

[Bridge]
And all this time it was in front of you
And all this time you knew it too

[Chorus]
Thoughts of ancient times
Gonna show me where I've been
But I want to walk into the future
And see things I've never seen
Thoughts of ancient timе
To remind us where wе've been
But we're gonna walk into the future
And see sights we've never seen
