Brighter Than the Sun

I am amazed and a little fazed

By what passes for wit these days

I’m not crazy about the trash they praise

Or the flags they wave these days

I’m amazed and a little fazed

By the drugs they crave these days

That’s just the way it plays

It’s a masquerade these days

I’m a man out of time

Until the stars realign

With taste so refined

I don’t know which way we’re heading

I’m a man out of time

With a mountain to climb

Just looking for a sign

Do you know which way we go?

I’ll ask the boy that I once was

About the man that I’ve become

About the days and days and days gone by

And the night still yet to come

That boy would turn to me and say

You’re not the only one

When all’s said and done

Our future’s looking brighter than the sun

I’m amazed and little fazed

By the way love stays today

By the facts that they portray

In a lover’s gaze today

I’m amazed and a little fazed

By the things you say to me

By the faith you place in me

And all that we can truly be

I’m a man out of time

Until the stars realign

With taste so refined

I don’t know which way we’re heading

I’m a man out of time

Trapped in rewind

Just looking for a sign

Do you know which way we go?

I’ll ask the boy that I once was

About the man that I’ve become

About the days and days and days gone by

And the night still yet to come

That boy would turn to me and say

You’re not the only one

When all’s said and done

Our future’s looking brighter than the sun
