about

"the first line of this song really says it all. i have always been fascinated by The Summer Of Love and the music that came from that era. this song is my daydream projected sonically."

lyrics

I wish that I was born in 1950,
so I could be 19 in 1969
I'd dodge the war and roam the city,
looking for a lovely day to make my own
I’d stumble on some words so pretty,
I’d forget where I was for a moments time
I’d walk alone and know this city
will still be standing tall long after I am gone

I wish that time was more like stairs and bridges,
so I could walk on back to any time I’d like
I’d revisit those memories that I cherish
and let the loving warmth come on and take me high
I realize the things that are most precious
are not materials or wealth, but states of mind
My memories and music made are very
much the things I hold dearest, so I’ll be fine

A little bit of “no” never bothered me
A little curiosity’ll father me
I never got far on my history
'Cause I know that the world is but a mystery

A little bit of “no” never bothered me
A little curiosity’ll father me
I never got far on my history
'Cause I know that the world is but a mystery

Ohhhhaohhhhh – the world is but a mystery
Ohhhhaohhhhh – the world is but a mystery
Ohhhhaohhhhh – the world is but a mystery
Ohhhhaohhhhh – the world is but a mystery

A little bit of “no” never bothered me
A little curiosity’ll father me
I never got far on my history
'Cause I know that the world is but a mystery

A little bit of “no” never bothered me
A little curiosity’ll father me
I never got far on my history
'Cause I know that the world is but a mystery

I wish that I was born in 1950,
so I could be 19 in 1969
I'd dodge the war and roam the city,
looking for a lovely day to make my own
