Those Who Came Before

See them there, standing tall, standing to remind us all

Not to get too far ahead and say that it's impossible

Earth, wind, and stone, the maker unknown

What do we leave behind for the new world to find?

Window glass through the past, see the strange lead the blind

We do what we do, what we do

What we do, what we do

What we do, what we do

What we do, what we do

What we do, what we do

What we do, what we
