See Songtext
von The Rascals

Things ain′t like they used to be
Love's the only thing I see
Wings of life are taking flight
From the darkness to the light

I used to try and fly away
Upon the flood of dreams
Tasting all the good and bad
From on the serpents tree

Little ones remind us
Of a place we used to be
Echoes of the ever land
Discover who you really are

Rivers rushing to the sea
Love is flowing endlessly
Drops of rain are never lost
Soul and spirit to its source


Saw you in a fairy tale
Or was it just a dream
White and yellow jasmine trees
Times a mere machine

Flashes of a new year light
Up a stellar sky
Love is really everywhere
To see it is to fly

Things ain′t like they used to be
If you want to you can see
Words of love on chestnut trees
Written by sweet memories

While we are riding on the avenues of time
The bird of life drinks from the cups of wine
Waits until we're ready for
The princes gift of love

Things ain't like they used to be
Love′s the only thing I see
Wings of life are taking flight
From the darkness to the light


Secret mirror photographs
Shining in your eyes
I′m married to the universe
My brother is the sky

Stars can see to make a wish
And hearts with wings can fly
Come with me and see my love
So we can never die

Rivers rushing to the sea
Love is flowing endlessly
Drops of rain are never lost
Soul and spirit to its source
