Shape of Things (The Yardbirds cover) Lyrics
Shapes of things before my eyes,
just teach me to dispise.
Will time make man 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, maybe a soldier?
Come tomorrow, will I be bolder than today?
Now, the trees are almost green.
But will they still be seen,
when time and tide have been?
Soon, I hope that I will find
thoughts deep within my mind,
that won't disgrace my kind.
Come tomorrow, will I be older?
Come tomorrow, maybe a soldier?
Come tomorrow, will I be bolder than today?
Shapes of things before my eyes,
just teach me to dispise.
Will time make man more wise?
just teach me to dispise.
Will time make man more wise?
My eyes just hurt my brain.
But will it seem the same?
Come tomorrow, maybe a soldier?
Come tomorrow, will I be bolder than today?
But will they still be seen,
when time and tide have been?
thoughts deep within my mind,
that won't disgrace my kind.
Come tomorrow, maybe a soldier?
Come tomorrow, will I be bolder than today?
just teach me to dispise.
Will time make man more wise?

Original version by The Yardbirds.
the version of this song captured on the live album "We Want Moore!" kicks so much freaking ass. i only recently discovered Gary Moore, and while i can appreciate all facets of his varied career, the post-Lizzy shred phase leading up to "We Want Moore!" is easily the best.
