Galahad Before After And Beyond Lyrics

Part 1. Transcendence
As we transcend the realms of mere mortality
Our souls released as we salute infinity
Visions like these exist in our minds
Chasing our dreams, forever, all time

Part 2. Heaven was and will be..
Past lIfe fascinations
MeddlIng with the spirits
Seance and science
Similar or separate ?

Strange ways, in the old days
Looking back with affection
(and a wry smile !)

We've seen it all before
And I guess we'll see it again
Trying to be so clever
Beating the natural at its own game
We'll never build a perfect world
We'll never build a perfect world
Before, after and beyond

Looking to the future
Planning, speculating
Peculiar priorities
Not always in order

Utopian ideals
Dreams of Nirvana
(heaven was and will be !)

We've seen it all before
And I guess we'll see it again Trying to be so clever
Beating the natural at its own game
We'll never build a perfect world
We'll never build a perfect world
Before, after and beyond

Dereliction of our duties
In current situations
Half-hearted lip service
Of limited duration
By those who
Have the power to
Help us to
Overcome our
Worldly problems
And solve them
Once and for all !

We've seen it all before
And I guess we'll see it again
We're trying to be so clever
Beating the natural at it's own game
We'll never build a perfect world
We'll never build a perfect world
Before, after and beyond
We'll never build a perfect world
Whatever happened to that perfect world ?
Before, alter and beyond

Past Imperfect
Present Imperfect
Future Imperfect
Forever Imperfect
