Europe › Lyrics › In the Future to Come

So many years ago, the people on this earth, they were laughin'
They didn't think of anything else than love and peace
But generations failed to see that they were causin' trouble for the future
They didn't know that one single war would continue to increase

But I'll be beside you 'cause I want to hide you
I'll cover my pain or I'll go insane

Oh Lord, where will it end
When tomorrow is gone
Oh Lord, can we stop to pretend
That we can survive in the future to come
In the future to come

As long as you can see, as long as you can feel there's no cause for alarm
As long as you can touch, as long as you can move it ain't too bad
But one day or another this world would maybe be destroyed forever
A holocaust could maybe be spread and drive us all mad

But I'll be beside you 'cause I want to hide you
I'll cover my pain or I'll go insane

Oh Lord, where will it end?
When tomorrow is gone
Oh Lord, can we stop to pretend
That we can survive in the future to come
In the future to come

So many years ago, the people on this earth, they were laughin'
They didn't think of anything else than love and peace
But generations failed to see that they were causin' trouble for the future
They didn't know that one single war would continue to increase

But I'll be beside you 'cause I want to hide you
I'll cover my pain or I'll go insane

Oh Lord, where will it end
When tomorrow is gone
Oh Lord, can we stop to pretend
That we can survive in the future to come
