Future Times

Written by Jon Anderson, Steve Howe, Chris Squire, Rick Wakeman, and Alan White
From album : Tormato


In the fountains of the Universe               :  Set time in accord
Sits the boychild Solomon                       :  Ever turning round and round
In the cities of the Southern Sky              :  Set points Universe
Dreams he of glory                                  :  Pulsating round and round
Future times will stand and clearly see   :  Highest dancing
Of the course of innocence                     :  Drifting drifting

                           See it all
                           See it all
                           Till tomorrow
                           See it all
                           See it all
                           Till tomorrow

          Future times will stand and clearly smile
          Of the course of innocence

Dantalion will ride again                          :  Raging forth underland
The course of evils standing straight      :  Grind to grind
Hot metal will abound the land                :  Churning out shout
As the form regards our blazing hand    :
Future times will stand and clearly see  :
Of the course of innocence                    :

One the word will enter all our hearts
Two the duel will alter them
Three jewels countenance divine away delight away
Four the fight to free the land
Five the islands of Arabia
Six the tears that separate
Six the tears that separate
