was there a time
when souls were friends
and was there an hour
with peace in minds
was there a minute
without some fight
and was there a second
when hearts were blind

I long for the time
when you could be yourself
but amongst others still
when the air was free from dirt
and the sea free from oil
a time when girls were girls
and boys were boys
you had your place
you ran no race
