One Eye on the Future, One Eye on the Past

Procol Harum

4

We'll raise our toast to pleasures past

They came so quick and went so fast

Idle boasts, crazy ghosts

We'll make our toast and drain the glass

We're know we're out of favour

We can't expect no saviour

We're looking to the future but we keep one eye on the past

Well time may heal, and absence mend

We'll raise our glass to absent friends

[ere] they dwell we wish them well

To those we wronged we'll make amends

We're know we're out of favour

We can't expect no saviour

We're looking to the future but we keep one eye on the past

It's time to change and start anew

To leave our home for pastures new

Where we go, ah, we won't know

It's something that we got to do

We're don't expect no favour

We can't expect no saviour

We're looking to the future but we'll keep one eye on the past
