C- R Giglio 1999

The strangest thing happened to me yesterday

I was walking alone down on lower Broadway

When a stranger approached me mysteriously

A man nearly 50 who looked just like me

He said somehow I got here from two-thousand twelve

When you look at me you’re looking right at yourself

I don’t know why I’m here or for how long I’ll be

But there’s things I must tell you so listen to me

 

(so I said) OH, speak to me future me

Tell me the things that I’m longing to know

How will my life go,

Oh, Talk to me Future me, You know the things that I’m longing to see

How will my life be?

 

Then he said we both know that this whole thing is strange

I can’t say too much or our whole life will change

But I will tell you two things you may think are odd,

Cherish your loved ones and stay close to God.

But I said I cherish my loved ones I'm close to God too

But there's so much more I want to know about you

But before I could get him to say anymore

He vanished and I was alone like before.

 

I noticed a young boy in front of the stage

He looked just like I did when I was his age

And before I could tell him the things I was told

He asked me how his life would be when he’s old

He said " Oh, speak to me future me tell me the things that I’m longing to know"

How will my life go?

I said "Please listen to me, former me, cherish each moment and love others too’

And Love will come to you…"
