Lyrics When 20 Summers Pass - Shelter

When 20 Summers Pass

I’ve got to concentrate on priorities
Can’t negate what means the most to me
What’s our fate?
What’s our destiny?
Start with each moment’s activity
I try, I try, I try, I try
But what’s important slips right by
When 20 summers pass and they’ll go fast
Will I look back and be satisfied within my heart
And at peace within my mind?
When 20 summers fly, fly on by
Will I like what I am and who I am or will I even give a damn?
We focus time on what matters least and our reward, a catastrophe
Looking back, what feels good to me?
Oh, the value of integrity
