Is It True

By Bruce Clifford 

 

Is it true that people once stood together in the same room
Is it true
Is it so that the human race used to go together to see a show
Is it so
Is this real that there was once a time when we could touch and feel
Is this real

It was a long time ago
All the things we used to know
All the places we used to go
It was a long time ago

Is it true that people once shared the same air in a room
Is it true
Is it so that there was once a time when hands were meant to hold
Is it so
Is this real that there was once a time when we could touch and feel
Is this real

It’s so different now
Life is so different now
If I ever saw another face I think my eyes would melt away
Is it true that people once stood together to howl at the moon
Is it true
