TIME AND CIRCUMSTANCE

2022

 

I SAW THE HEAVENS

 

THE EARTH BELOW 

 

I SAW THE SUN

 

THE RAIN AND THE SNOW

 

I OPENED UP MY HEART

 

JUST LET IT GO

 

AND SURE ENOUGH

 

IT CAME TO YOU

 

FROM BEHIND A CLOUD I WATCHED

 

IN BLUEBERRY SKIES

 

AND WHEN I LOOKED

 

INTO YOUR EYES

 

I FOUND I COULDN'T STOP

 

 

BEEN WITH YOU

 

SINCE TIME AND CIRCUMSTANCE

 

SMILED ON YOU AND I

 

WE FOLLOW THE RUSHING WATERS

 

OF SPRING

 

THAT BRING THE MEADOWS LIFE 

 

GENTLY INTO SUMMER

 

WE ALWAYS TRY TO MAKE IT A DREAM

 

TURN IT TOWARDS SOMETHING

 

WE'VE NEVER SEEN

 

AS HARD AS ITS BEEN

 

I STILL LOVE EVERYTHING ABOUT YOU

 

 

WHAT YOU DO I ALWAYS SEE 

 

WHAT YOU SEE IS A WAY CLEAR 

 

LIKE A STARRY NIGHT

 

THE BRIGHT MOON TO GUIDE US

 

GOOD FORTUNE RIGHT BESIDE US

 

EVERYTHING WE PUT IN

 

POISON OR MEDICINE

 

BRINGS A CHANGE

 

SOMETIMES I ONLY

 

CHANGE BY DEGREE

 

BUT BY GOD I CHANGE

 

LOOK AT ME

 

 

HOW SOON WILL IT BE

 

UNTIL WE CAN SIT

 

BENEATH A TREE

 

AND WATCH THE WAVES

 

BREAK ON THE SAND

 

NOT PRESSED FOR TIME 

I HOLD YOUR HAND

UNTIL THE SUN GOES SINKING

THE COLOURED LIGHT IS SHRINKING

CEDING TO THE TWILIGHT

HOLDING YOU UNTIL

ITS TIME TO SAY GOOD NIGHT
