All through my life I've been hearing
All about those good old days
It makes no diff'rence
What was or what may be

Past it is gone
And future may not be at all
Present improve the flying hour

Some people look into the future
They're hoping that they'll see better days
It's such a sweet thought
It's something that could be, but

Past it is gone
And future may not be at all
Present improve the flying hour

What was and what may be
Is not here,
It is not clear to me.
Right now is the one thing
That I can feel
The one thing real to me... ooohh

So as you sit back to remember
That which you can not recall
It makes no diff'rence
What was or what may be

Past it is gone
And future may not be at all
Present improve the flying hour.

It makes no diff'rence
What was or what may be

Past it is gone
And future may not be at all
Present improve the flying hour.

Past it is gone
And future may not be at all
Present improve the flying hour.
