Look around
The world's a lovely sight
Lovely sky and sea
Well, it used to be
Look around
The world is shining bright
Watch the green grass grow
Well, that once was so
Where's the spring that loved the rain?
Where's the growth down lovers' lane?
Look around
They vanish overnight
Where's the lovely world we used to see?
Who closed the open skies?
The view clear to the horizon
Look around
They disappear from sight
And then I recall what used to be
I'm weeping like a weeping willow tree
Just look around
You'll see a memory
