Words Of Wisdom
Europe · In The Future To Come [2003]
Never thought I'd be so blind
Wish I could understand you
So many things I've heard and seen
But still don't know what you mean
When you say "I'm leaving you"
I wish I could remember
Everything I've learnt
I've tried and tried to be so good
And I know I should
Say something before you go
Cause every time I've done something wrong
It's so hard to be strong
Gone are the feelings I want to show
Words of wisdom, teach me more
Words of wosdom, so much more
Words Of Wisdom
Europe's 2003 single 'Words Of Wisdom' stands as a poignant addition to the band's extensive catalogue, blending their signature melodic hard rock with reflective lyricism. Recorded for the album 'In The Future To Come', the track exemplifies the group's ability to transition from their 1980s anthems to a more mature, introspective sound while maintaining their core identity. The song features the characteristic driving guitars and soaring vocals that defined their career, yet it explores themes of guidance and foresight that resonate deeply with long-time fans. As a standalone recording, it serves as a testament to the band's enduring relevance and their commitment to crafting music that balances commercial appeal with genuine emotional depth.
