Only The Future

Joe Jackson · Night Music [1994]

Some thing's coming, something big

Something I can't stand

Dark as the ocean, secret and cruel

Something I can't command



Some thing's waiting down a mugger's alley

To see what's on my mind

Take a deep breath, start walking faster

It's dark, but I'm not blind



You never know, if I push at this wall

My hand could pass through, so

This cloud of unknowing

Could disappear too

It's only the future
