I remember well the imaginary time

We sat by the river and watched the water flow by

We watched as the sun fell out of the sky

Bars opened for people to lose their minds

Casinos welcomed all those with money to lose

Round the world sailers set off from the land

Workers queued up for work cash in hand

I remember well the imaginary time

Poets and preachers set out their stalls

Politicians and punters prayed for good luck

Those from the past arrived in the present

Asking themselves why they were sent

I remember well the imaginary time

We sat by the river and watched the water rise

We watched as the sun fell out of the sky

The day started well just a little light rain

Nothing to indicate a storm or a gale

The lunch was good and the dinner looked fine

The night never came as we sat down to dine

I remember well the imaginary time

Everything changed in the blink of and eye

History was wiped from the slate on the wall

Those among us who knew went on our way

Thoes who did not dissapeared into a new day

I remember well the imaginary time

We sat by the river and watched the water go by

We watched as the sun fell from our view

I remember well the imaginary time.
