All We Have Is Now
Wayne's Notes from the Album:
"The story of a man who glimpses himself through some rip in the fabric of time and space - at first his future-self is thought to be some eccentric old man - at last he realizes it was himself reporting from some distant tomorrow."

As logic stands you couldn't meet a man
Who's from the future
But logic broke as he appeared he spoke
About the future
"We're not gonna make it"
He explained how the end will come
You and me were never meant to be
Part of the future
All we have is now
All we've ever had was now
All we have is now
All we'll ever have is now
I noticed that he had a watch and hat
That looked familiar
He was me
From a dimension torn free of the future
"We're not gonna make it"
He explained how the end will come
You and me were never meant to be
Part of the future
All we have is now
All we've ever had was now
All we have is now
All we'll ever have is now
All we have is now
Who's from the future
But logic broke as he appeared he spoke
About the future
He explained how the end will come
You and me were never meant to be
Part of the future
All we have is now
All we've ever had was now
All we have is now
All we'll ever have is now
That looked familiar
He was me
From a dimension torn free of the future
He explained how the end will come
You and me were never meant to be
Part of the future
All we have is now
All we've ever had was now
All we have is now
All we'll ever have is now
