Lyrics
Echoes of Yesterday (v1) They left their marks on the walls of caves In ancient footprints just beneath the waves In monuments among the shifting sands Monuments that to this day still stand (v2) They gave us religions, holy men and high priests They started many wars but never a lasting peace They built great castles with walls of stone But their enemies’ and time cut to the bone (chorus) Like turning around and seeing the past Or looking ahead knowing it won’t last Listening for the questions never asked Time moves on and all things slip away But you can still hear the echoes of yesterday Instrumental (bridge) They gave us governments with laws and rules Many great people and a boatload of fools They gave us medicine to ease our pain Then cleansed the land of all the bloodstains (v4) They created many gods to destroy the beast Started many wars but never a lasting peace Left many cities consumed in flames Carried many flags and had many names (chorus) Like turning around and seeing the past Or looking ahead knowing it won’t last Listening for the questions never asked Time moves on and all things slip away But you can still hear the echoes of yesterday
