Lyrics

Pardon me friend what is that sound?
John, Paul, George and Ringo's
souls unbound
And who's that cat with the words of gold?
That's Bobby Dylan twenty five years old
While Tricky Dick was workin' on his
evil con game
We were transcending to a higher plane
We were living in the land where
tomorrow mattered,
We had a song and a dream but our hearts were shattered,
Brotherhood, peace and love
Sold out for the almighty buck
(Livin' in the land where tomorrow mattered)
Thought we were living in the land where tomorrow mattered
Listen up children I got a tale to tell
About a magical time and a wishing well
Flower children walkin' hand-in-hand
Was it all a delusion or the promised land?
We were living in the land where
tomorrow mattered,
We had a song and a dream but our hearts were shattered,
Brotherhood, peace and love
Sold out for the almighty buck
(Livin' in the land where tomorrow mattered)
I don't understand how it doesn't matter
(Livin' in the land where we thought
it mattered)
We were livin' in the land where
tomorrow mattered
We were turnin' on, we were tunin' in,
we were droppin' out
We were stardust in the garden
Dawn of a new world where we'd all be free
We were anything that we wanted to be,
(Anything that we ever wanted to ever be)
(Anything that we ever wanted to ever be)
We were living in the land where
tomorrow mattered,
We had a song and a dream but our hearts were shattered,
Brotherhood, peace and love
Sold out for the almighty buck
(Livin' in the land where tomorrow mattered)
Wish we were livin' in the land where it
really mattered
(Livin' in the land where tomorrow mattered)
Oh please tell me brother how it all
got shattered
(Livin' in the land where tomorrow mattered)
Once we were livin' in the land where tomorrow mattered
Once we were livin' in the land where tomorrow mattered
