Airtone’s beautiful version of Admiral Bob’s already excellent Something Old Something New.
And me singing.

I wanna be up for
the end of the night
I wanna be there
when the dark turns to light

Oh lord won’t you help me
please can you arrange
to let me live long enough
to witness a change

I was there in the sixties
when we got pretty close
to making peace, love and empathy
matter the most

but they figured it out
and they quelled our passion
by corporatizing
the truth into fashion

I’ve been on the earth now
for three score and four
I’m not gonna be here
for too many more

What can I do now
before I’m laid to rest
to help make the human
race a success

I wanna be up for
the end of the night
I wanna be there
when the dark turns to light

Oh lord won’t you help me
please can you arrange
to let me live long enough
to witness a change
