People sacrifice the present for the future. But life is available only in the present. That is why we should walk in such a way that every step can bring us to the here and the now.

From Silver Lake
Did you see our brother
He was here the other day
But he only came to say that he was leaving
Did you see his lady
She was looking where he'd gone
But she wasn't letting on
That she was grieving
She's bound to go
Perhaps she'll find him waiting
For his boat in some city far away
She's bound to go
Lately I remember
Afternoons of smoke and wine
There was nothing we could find
But peace and pleasure
And with a smile he told me
That he wanted just to be on his way
Across the sea no man can measure
He won't be back,
And the sun may find him sleeping
In the dust of some ruin far away
He won't be back
Early today as I watched while
The skyline was shaking
I heard a rumbling
Early today the mechanical city was waking
And I ran out stumbling, mumbling
Out through the laughter
Of children and dogs
Did you see our brother
He was here the other day
But he only came to say that
He can't breathe here
Did you see his lady
She was reaching for his hand
Just as if to tell her man
That she can't either
They're bound to go
And the sun may find me running after them,
Seeing something far away
We won't be back
...COUNTER SONG AT THE END OF "FROM SILVER LAKE"
.....Someone who had been away
.....Suddenly came back today
.....And I allowed him home today into my mind
.....For a moment face to face
.....Evil packed upon the place
.....Long ago he meant to stay out there this time
.....Oh, what do you know
.....The love that I've been feeling
.....The past is healing so slow
.....By tomorrow, gone from sorrow.
