It's Not The Same For Us lyrics

I know you live on my street I sometimes wonder why we don't meet I've seen your face in the sky twenty-five stories high you never come down to earth communication (communication) could hardly be much worse don't keep me here in the dark I want to be your friend your fears are way off the mark every generation sees it their own way never learning their lessons making the same mistakes again it's not the same for us - as history fades away it's not the same for us - you must hear me when I say look out on this brave new land think of the future the future that lays in our hands our leaders live in the past we can change it there's something to hope for at last every generation sees it their own way why don't we learn our lessons don't make the same mistakes again (Chorus) what dreams are you chasing now? what are you living for? the problems that we're facing now nobody faced before please don't reject me in anger or in sorrow you've got to accept me if we're to make a better tomorrow it's not the same - it's not the same for us
