Was a time I remember   Hope flashed and went dim   When assassins just happened   To do the right people in      And love was the slogan   Coincidentally   And they told us they'd work it out   Eventually      In the swing of changing time   A man cried out for his   And every politician said   He was telling us like it is      Yes, they walked down the angry streets   To have themselves a look-see   And they told us they'd work it out   Eventually      I see the choking cities   I see them tearing up this earth   I see people feelin'   That their lives have little worth      And I know that the future   Depends on you and me   I hope we can work it out   Eventually   I hope we can work it out   Eventually      Hey, maybe someday   Hey, maybe someday   Hey, maybe someday   Eventually
