Story behind the song
I think most of us can relate to what's going on.
Lyrics
Everywhere I go seems people are angry. They've forgotten what's important, And focused on what doesn't matter. I don't know where it's going, But it sure is going fast In the wrong direction. How much longer can it last? When will love prevail again, When will the hate go away. It was back in a better time in my life, Back in the good old days. Passing life on by, Not thinking of the future. Their attitudes are faltered By what they think is the truth. I don't know where it's going, But it sure is going fast In the wrong direction. How much longer can it last? When will love prevail again, When will the hate go away. It was back in a better time in my life, Back in the good old days. Copyright © 2016; Bob Forbes

Great song with a great lyrics & message... that (I am afraid) not many people will understand like "we" do (!) coming from those turbulent times, that seem to be so tame today... yes, I agree with the "Capitan" as well! Great song Bob, thanks for sharing with us! :)

Yeah, great lyrics...often wish we could go back a few years and change the default setting from hate to love. Beautiful melody, great sentiments and brilliant performed.

Outstanding lyrics and music with some great harmonies! I agree with your lyrics 100% and I also agree with Michael that the turbulent 60's and 70's do seem tame compared to today. Where did it get off track I wonder...

Your lyric really makes me appreciate the 'good old days' ,) the 50's were bliss compared to today, even the turbulent 60's & 70's seem tame now.. great lyric and outstanding music Bobo!

Such an important message, especially these days. Another ballad classic of yours with your typical goosebump factor. Thank you Bobo, for always precious lyrics & fantastic music.

Very nice production Bob. Oh those vocal harmonies, so good - they really shine and are one of your hallmarks! The piano and acoustic guitar sound sweet. Signature Bob Forbes electric guitar tone - nice!
