Dm                        C
Take me into all of your life
Am                  G
I am the future, define the future
Dm                      C
I was only thinking of human kindness
Am                  G
I am the future, define the future
Dm                       C
I have always wanted to be here with you
Am                       G
Love me the first time, love me the last time
Dm                          C
Something that I wanted to see through with you
Am                  G
I am the future, define the future

Chorus:
Am
Is this the way you make me ask for something more?
Is this the reason why you walk back to the door?
You wanna rebel but you hold yourself indecision
And something tells me that you gave it all up
over division

Take me into all of your lifetime
I am the future, define the future
Take me into all of your lasting lifetime
I am the future, define the future
I was only thinking of human kindness
Love me the first time, love me the last time
Take me into all of your lamentations
I am the future, define the future
