Mind of Man

Peter Sarstedt

Young people they're all studying, old people they're just worrying
What can we do to be happy in this day and age?
This is a world full of poses
This is a time for unveiling and coming to terms with our fears

I don't believe what I read and I don't believe what I see
I place no trust in my memory
There are prophecies to follow, many calories to swallow
And words to lead the children down to glory

It's only a dream, a fantastic scheme
That's captured the mind of man
That's captured the mind of man

There's a certain way of being and a way to disappear
But there's just your mind to crystalise these things
So from the seeds of our beginning to the race that no one's winning
There's no one to say the ending of the story

It's only a dream, a fantastic scheme
Captured the mind of man
Captured the mind of man

Take a mighty swing to the right
Take a mighty swing to the left
Or set your trail way down by the middle
You'll find a fascinating mystery
In every page of human history
There's always so many answers to the question

But it's only a dream, a fantastic scheme
Captured the mind of man
Captured the mind of man
