1. Remember The Future, Part 1
[Having visited the planet many times before, Bluebird had always found that the people he met couldn't accept him for what he was rather than how he looked. With his blue skin and wings they either ran away from him or tried to harm him. He makes mental contact with a young blind boy and tells him stories of past and future in the form of visions and amongst these visions he places a picture of himself. The boy is not disturbed by the vision but confused by all that Bluebird tells him.]
take a trip back in time life evolving, growing higher not just space that Bluebird sees in the sea a new domain
evolution evolution
swimming forth, came on land beast to ape, grasping hands thinking kill never ran lived in caves, enter man
evolution evolution
tamed the fire, prophecied length of day and height of sky made his tools chased his meal then progressed, he built the wheel
falling down from heaven twisted leaves, so twisted still so strong after all those lies
I can see the meaning twisted trees, so twisted spin the wheel of never ending time
blessed were the days of the creatures in their caves who hold the last clue in the life of me and you they had to fight to make good their rights and Bluebird could not stir
who, who made you and who made me whose are the eyes of the world that look at me
falling from their saddles victories lost battles spin the wheel of never ending life
blessed were the days of the sinners in their graves who saved the last place in the shade for me and you forty thousand teeth were beared as if to rip the flesh already torn
who, who made you and me whose were they eyes of the world that looked at me
I was the first to see it all when rainbow crossed the bridge at dawn forty billion miles I came to tell this tale already told
who, who made you and who made me whose are the eyes of the world we're looking through
remember the future remember the future remember the future
remember the first time I came here the last time remember the future will always be there
but now that it's over I'll see you the next time remember the future is yours
remember the future remember the future
and now that you've seen me I see it's behind you remember the future will always be there
and so I have told you you see what's before you remember the future is yours
remember the future remember the future remember the future remember the future remember...
2. Remember The Future, Part 2
[Bluebird decides to give the boy new eyes. The boy realises now who his friend is. He asks questions and makes suggestions and in turn receives from Bluebird wisdom and the answer to every question. Bluebird then departs knowing that his message had at last been heard.]
[Boy:] I can see you, I can hear you I can see you, I can hear you I can see you, I can hear you I can see you, I can hear you
I can see it all when I look into your eyes I can sense it all when I look into your skies

I can feel it all when I look behind your smile I can hear it all when I look behind your mind I can sense, oh I can feel you are me and that's the way it's always been you are me
Bluebird, what do you see Bluebird, what do you feel
[Bluebird:] I feel everything I see life, I see stars and I can't care for anything
[Boy:] Bluebird, where have you been Bluebird, what have you seen
[Bluebird:] I've been everywhere I've seen all around and I can't warn against anything
[Boy:] smile if you want to not when you can break down if you want to not when you can follow me home 'cos tomorrow, tomorrow never comes
[Bluebird:] you stand before me, fate in your hand you say tomorrow will never begin follow me home 'cos today is tomorrow yesterday
walking down lonely roads what do I see? won't be long till they come again free
name your place, name mine too where we will be? won't be long till they crucify me
here they come, here they come here they come, see them run
see them run, see them run see them run, watch them go now...
[Boy:] I can see you through the morning mist and the evening too I can hear you getting closer now to the living truth
