| I was born of nineteen fifty nine
|
| That’ll be the day rock’n’roll died
|
| Far away on a dark and stormy night
|
| Brought into the new decade
|
| The sixties and her pearly gates
|
| A hard rain fell and the times forever changed
|
| In the back of a car with the wind in our hair
|
| Speeding down the road going anywhere
|
| Was it true we were really going nowhere?
|
| Sixty eight rang like a ricochet
|
| The world arose to a nightmare day
|
| Some people found their voice and a world to change
|
| One small step for man was one giant leap for mankind
|
| How I wish that we could walk that way tonight
|
| On a Woodstock field in the heat of the night
|
| Rock’n’roll music defined the times
|
| The sound of generations collide
|
| These moments in time
|
| (These moments in time)
|
| Live on forever in my mind
|
| (Live on forever in my mind)
|
| Even though we’ve said goodbye
|
| (These moments in time)
|
| Live on forever in my mind
|
| And the seventies king of rock’n’roll
|
| In Gracelands lost his throne
|
| There won’t be any comebacks tomorrow
|
| No Elvis, Beatles or the Rolling Stones
|
| Why they were taken away? |
| God only knows
|
| We formed a band we were haunted by their ghosts
|
| I remember it now like it was yesterday
|
| Playing those guitars at a frantic pace
|
| Somewhere we got lost along the way
|
| These moments in time
|
| (These moments in time)
|
| Live on forever in my mind
|
| (Live on forever in my mind)
|
| Even though we’ve said goodbye
|
| (These moments in time)
|
| Live on forever in my mind
|
| Through the London streets in a taxi cab
|
| A radio played an epitaph
|
| Imagine, the dream is over
|
| Oh I’ve been silent way too long
|
| You never thought I knew what was going on
|
| You probably think that you are in this song
|
| The tragedies behind the dreams
|
| Belie the truth and the honesty
|
| I have seen the dirt and the glory
|
| These moments in time
|
| (These moments in time)
|
| Live on forever in my mind
|
| (Live on forever in my mind)
|
| Even though we’ve said goodbye
|
| (These moments in time)
|
| Live on forever in my mind
|
| These moments in time
|
| (These moments in time)
|
| Live on forever in my mind
|
| (Live on forever in my mind)
|
| Even though we’ve said goodbye
|
| (These moments in time)
|
| Live on forever in my mind |
