Your Face Can Tell the Future (outtake) Songtext
von The Flaming Lips

Your face can tell the future

I remember tracing the lines on your face
Thinking we were going to some wonderful place
Now it′s taking us somewhere I know
Your face can tell the future

And the future's looking bad
And the future makes you sad
And the future comes along
And changes everything
It changes everything

And now we′re living in the future
Writing on our hands
Don't forget to leave the light on
To see where we began

Now we're living in the future
Living in the land
Where experience can′t help us
Now we′re doing the best we can


And the future's looking bad
And the future′s looking bad
And the future makes you sad
And the future makes you sad
And the future comes along
And changes everything
And changes everything

And now we're living the future
Writing on our hands
Don′t forget to leave the light on
To see where we began
Now we're living in the future
Living in a land
Where experience can′t help us
Now we're doing the best we can

(Living in the future)
Doing the best we can
But it's hard to understand
What we thought was gonna be
Well we couldn′t really see
(Living in the future)
But we see it clearly now
Don′t know why and I don't know how
Somehow you′re losing all you have
If you're everything you need
