STOP PRESS: We Interrupt This Blog To Bring You...

...a little something that a few blog visitors may remember from EPCOT Center's birth (okay, far from 1982 as its birthyear). For those who has been on Spaceship Earth since EPCOT Center between the years of '86 to '94, you may have heard the iconic song "Tomorrow's Child". Thanks to a few internet sources, as well as an audio sample, I have reconstructed the lyrics for you to look back for your nostalgic glory (note the bracketed verses are actially from the childrens choir):

Tomorrow's child
(Tomorrow's child.)
Gathering gifts from our past
Tomorrow's child
(Tomorrow's child.)
Shaping a world that will last

Holding the spark
As we embark
On a great journey
Together we're learning to
Reach for hope and desire
Building a world to inspire

Tomorrow's child, Tomorrow's child
Charting a brand new way
For the Future World is born today
(Born today)
Tomorrow's child
Lighting the path as we're going (Tomorrow's child)
Tomorrow's child
Seeing that knowledge keeps growing (Tomorrow's child)

Searching through time
Longing to find
Answers to guide us
And dreams to unite us
Helping us unlock the door
Showing us ways to explore
Tomorrow's child, Tomorrow's child
Charting a brand new way
For the Future World is born today 
(Born today.)

Tomorrow's Child, (Tomorrow's child.)
Helping us unlock the door
Tomorrow's Child, (Tomorrow's child.)
Showing us ways to explore
Helping convey 
Ideas of today...
Where we will find 
inspiration forever to

Reach for hope and desire
Building a world to in-spi-re...

Tomorrow's child, Tomorrow's child
Charting a brand new way
For the Future World is born today
(Born today.) 



(EDIT: Thanks Ortens for finally figuring out the missing lyrics for the Walter Cronkite version! Almost a year after publishing the lost lyrics for fellow bloggers to figure out, we've finally confirmed that the missing gaps in the lyric work are finally filled!) To celebrate, I have found the audio source for your listening pleasure, but I can only give you links for the time being:

Spaceship Earth, late Walter Cronkite version from '86 to '94 - part one, and part two, for your listening pleasure

(Thankyou to Ortens for your sharp ears and wonderful assistance for picking up the lost lyrics! The rest of us who have been on that ride (unfortunately not myself) will have searched through our memory banks or sifted through home videos for the missing video. For the memories for everyone else in this boat, thanks, and best wishes.)


...And now, next post we'll be returning to normal transmission.
