Forget About The Future Lyrics - Sacred Love - Sting

I know we got some history 

We got some issues that we need to solve 

But is it really such a mystery? 

It's just the way that the world evolves 

Let me ask your forgiveness baby 

My heart is ever full of sorrow 

We got to move into the future maybe 

And think about a new tomorrow 

She said you know I used to love you baby 

But you're thinking way too fast 

So forget about the future 

And let's get on with the past 

So they called a 'nited nations summit 

To negotiate for peace on earth 

And it may be idealistic baby 

But I know what peace of mind is worth 

Everybody aired their grievances 

And they threw away the suture 

They opened up all the wounds of the past 

As they failed to find their way to the future 

They said we'd better check the weather chart 

Before we tie our colors to this mast 

It's just too hard thinking about the future baby 

So let's just get on with the past 

She said we'd better check the horoscope honey 

Just in case this feeling wasn't meant to last 

It's just too hard thinking about the future 

So let's just get on with the past 

How many times you ever hear me say 

I'm as flawed as any other human being? 

There simply has to be a different way 

And a whole new way of seeing 

Are we doomed by all our history? 

Is our love really beyond repair? 

It's getting close to midnight baby 

And we ain't got time to spare 

Just when I think I'm home and dry 

And she's given up the fight 

There's an unmistakable optimism 

In romantic music and candlelight 

There's this lingering perfume 

The merest ghost of the past 

She says wait a minute baby 

You're moving way too fast 

We'd better check the weather chart 

Before we raise this mast 

We'd best consult our horoscope 

In case this feeling wasn't meant to last 

Let's just forget about the future 

And get on with the past
