The Present Tense
Living in the Present Tense 
When you lose the past 
And the future makes no sense 
You're living in the Present Tense 
Crawling out, secure and confident 
Imbued with innocence 
Ready for the whirl 
Suddenly the view was more intense 
Living in a different kind of world 
You're living 
Living in the present tense 
There's nothing to blame 
No victim of consequence 
You're living in the Present Tense 
Something you said 
It made me 
Step outside ..the moment 
Eyes pan right and left 
around my world 
Open yourself 
Up to the possibility 
Aware of some reality 
Outside your world 
In a silent universe 
The moment can be so real 
You almost can't stand it 
In a distant universe 
Distracted from ourselves 
You can't help but wonder 
In a crowded universe 
When the talking turns to noise 
You almost start laughing 
You're living 
Living in the present tense 
When you lose the past 
And the future makes no sense 
You're Living in the Present Tense 
Nothing to blame 
No victim of consequence 
You're living in the Present Tense
