about

When I wrote this song in 2017 I fantasized that we were living in the future. Now we REALLY are. Crazy. “Living in the Future” is a song we played live a few times. It came out earlier as a digital preview of our full Wilfred N & the Grown Men album that was originally titled “We’ll Get There”. The album is finally coming out this summer, 2022, and the album has been renamed “Impossible World”.

lyrics

I’m living in the future – breathing in the moment
Living in the future and digging up the past
I’m living in the future – breathing in the moment
And it’s out of my hands

I wonder what it’s gonna be like
Living in the future – is it gonna be fine?
Living in the future
Is it gonna be nice?

Somebody out there, somebody knows
Where we are going, the way the wind blows
The way the wind blows, the way the wind blows
Living in a moment

I’m living in the future – breathing in the moment
I’m living in the future and dreaming of the past
We’re all together and what have we done?
Done about the future? . . . it’s out of our hands

Somebody out there, somebody knows
The river is flowing but where does it go?
Where does it go? Where does it go?
Treading in the water

I’m giving up guessing, going with the flow
Where the river’s flowing only the river knows
Giving up on guessing, going with the flow
. . .

Only the river knows . . . only the river knows
It’s out of our hands
Only the river knows
It’s out of our hands

The river knows
