Can you feel it?

It's the end of the line
It's the end of time

Swing low sweet chariot
Giving us back our youth
When they finally come to bury us
Bury us, we'll tell the truth

It's the end of time
The end of time
Can you feel it?
Can you feel it?

It's the end of the line
It's the end of time

Always keep me in your heart
Even though I may be dead and gone
And though we may be far apart
My love for you is strong

It's the end of time
The end of time
Can you feel it?
Can you feel it?

It's the end of the line
It's the end of time

End, end of time
The end, end of time

Whoa, whoa, whoa
I'm taking a stab at this one. For me, this is his song to his children. Reflected in them, he's confronting his mortality and also recognizing his immortality. Thus, the brilliant double meaning he applies to the phrase "the end of time." Can you feel it? I sure do in the elemental/primal melody on which these sentiments slide.

Imagine paying $1000 to hear "Don't Dream It's Over" instead of "Go Your Own Way"

Fleetwood Mac helped me through a time of heartbreak. 12 years later, they broke my heart.
