age of reason

Olivia Newton-john

From the day that we were born
We've been heading down a track
Sometimes it's made for good
Sometimes for bad
But if we look behind us
There's a wave coming down
Carrying us forward to a new age

*What about the world around us
How can we fail to see
And we've been left to carry on
What about the age of reason

So why can't we be still
Why can't we love each other
Is kindness an ancient skill
Buried by our blindness
And if we look behind us
There's a wind blowing on
To create the age of reason

If we consider carefully
The options put before us
So much wisdom so much love
So much waiting for us
And if we look ahead
There's the sun and the seasons
Another day another age of reason

*repeat twice

What about the age
What about the age
What about the age of reason
