This song is about the wonderful people I grew up with. Most of us attended elementary through high school in Azusa, California. For the most part, I think most of us would say it was a great and exciting times in our lives. Our class, the class of 1965, was full of promise and the world was ours to mold as we desired and celebrate life in whichever way we wished. We enjoyed and relished our relationships, memories, and love for our fellow students, friends, and acquaintances that many of us enjoy to this day.

Unfortunately, it was also a time of unrest, uncertainty, and a raging war which none of us understood, wanted, or could avoid. Lives changed in ways we never thought possible or welcomed. 

Many of us continued to move forward, often times around obstacles and curves that only made us stronger and appreciative of life and relationships.  This song is dedicated to all those that grew up in these uncertain times with the most wonderful group of people in the world.  When you look into the eyes of the people in the video, do you think there is more to the story than what you see?

What ever happened, what ever happened, what ever happened to the world we left behind
Whatever happened to the way we used to see.
Whatever happened to the we we used to be.
Lookin’ at some pictures, faded faces from the past.
Eyes of wonder, smiles n’ memories, they wont last.
Can you tell me what happened to the world we left behind.
