The Future Is Yours Lyrics

Child, the future is yours

Open the doors

Seize with both hands

Child, the future is here

Approach without fear

Because you can

We were washed up

On the shores of yesterday

It's a game that we played

To see what we saw

Rose, rose coloured spectacles

Caught up in the tentacles

Of what went before

Child, the future is yours

Open the doors

Seize with both hands

Child, the future is here

Approach without fear

Because you can

We were caught out cold

In a world of constraint

So scared of change

We stayed where we were

Lost, lost with no more control

We dug our own hole

Our future's deferred

We were faded and grey

As our lives slipped away

Just too many todays

With nothing to live for

You, you stand at a crossroads in life

With your eyes open wide

Now the future is yours

Child, the future is yours

Open the doors

Seize with both hands

Child, the future is here

Approach without fear

Because you can
