Fanfare

James Taylor

Someone turn the time on

Another day, dead and gone

A lifetime is slippin' away, babe

But as far as I can see

That doesn't apply to you and me

We are high above the family tree

Hidden in the deep blue sea

Industry on parade

Punch a clock 9-to-5

But beginning is beginning to fade away

Ah, but look out from now on, baby

As far as the eye can see

Unafraid to be free

Shinin' on the silver sea

You and me, we got to be movin'

Pickin' up, carry on

Lead you children right on

Carry on, carry on

Heaven knows I love you

Don't you know that it's true yourself

Looks like you and me baby

Dancin' by the shinin' sea
