RANDOM JACK POETRY HOUR: LIFE SONGS
Back Page Ramble (Nobody Knows)
To be so young and to know so much
Makes me wonder how long we’ve been in touch
I have wasted most of my time so long
Now everything I thought was wrong
For when I was a child I was innocent
I fought to find what the message meant
So I grew up fast and I grew up strong
When others led I went along
I could not find the power
It was not my finest hour
If we knew now what we knew then
Would we have the strength to start again?
Nobody knows
Now that I am old I know just what to do
But I lack the strength to see it through
So I wait for someone to come for us
To get on board the big yellow bus
To take us where we’ll start again
We know it’ll come we don’t know when
We will stand up like the towers
It will be our finest hour
If we knew then what we know now
Would we find a way somehow?
Nobody knows
(regards to the immortal Bob Dylan)
