<b>Is it like today</b> by <i>Sheryl Crow</i><br />Many years ago

He looked out through a glassless window

All that he could see was Babylon

Beautiful green fields and dreams

And he learned to measure the stars

But there was a worry in his heart

He said "how could it come to this?

I'm really worried about living

How could it come to this?

Yeah, I really want to know about this"

Is it like today?

Oh, ooh...

Then there came a day

it moved out 'cross the Mediteranean

Came to Western isles of Greek young men

With their silver beards

They laughed at the unknown of the universe

They could just sit and guess God's name

He said "how could it come to this?

We've been living in a landslide

How could it come to this?

Yeah, I really wanna know about this"

Is it like today?

Oh, ooh...

Then there came a day

Man backpacked and flew off of the planet

He went to the moon (to the moon)

Now he's off in space

Fixing all of the problems

He comes face to face with God

He said "how could it come to this?

I'm really worried about my creation

How could it come to this?

You're really killing me you know"

Is it like today?

Oh, ooh...

Is it like today?

Oh, ooh...

Many years ago

Man looked out through a glassless window

Didn't know much, not much, but he saw
