Selective Amnesia Songtext

von Earth Wind & Fire

There is an eye in the sky, that sees in the darkness
He searches the soul and He pierces the conscience
I'm not proud or everything that He's seen
But when it comes to that past, He's got selective amnesia
It's not that He's old or losing His memory
I'ts just that He knows that we need His mercy
There's no excuse for living in sin
But there's always a chance to start over again
He knows it all and there's some news that will please ya
When it comes to that past, He's got selective amnesia

Press on and never look back
Press on, the past is the past
Press on, He's paid for your debt
And you should remember that you've got to forget

There is an eye in the sky, that sees in the darkness
He searches the soul and He pierces the conscience
I'm not proud or everything that He's seen
But when it comes to that past, He's a mercy machine
He knows it all and there's some news that will please ya
When it comes to that past, He's got selective amnesia

Press on and never look back
Press on, the past is the past
Press on, He's paid for your debt
And you should remember that you've got to forget
