Shapes Of Things Lyrics
Shapes of things before my eyes
Just teach me to despise
Will time make men more wise?
Here within my lonely frame
My eyes just hurt my brain
But will it seem the same?
Come tomorrow, will I be older?
Come tomorrow, may be a soldier
Come tomorrow, may I be bolder than today?
Now the trees are almost green
But will they still be seen
When time and tide have been?
Oh, into your passing hands
Please don't destroy these lands
Don't make them desert sands.
Just teach me to despise
Will time make men more wise?
My eyes just hurt my brain
But will it seem the same?
Come tomorrow, may be a soldier
Come tomorrow, may I be bolder than today?
But will they still be seen
When time and tide have been?
Please don't destroy these lands
Don't make them desert sands.

Interesting (and great) cover of the old Yardbirds song. Nazareth knew how to change their covers enough to make them more than just a more modern version of the original...
