Today is here and gone Tomorrow will not last long My life is spinning by And yet there's time to cry They say that time goes slow Of this I do not know I sit and watch the sky And find there's time to cry
On your death bed you will find Time passes by Then I know you'll realise You life has past
And now I count the hours My life dies like a flower I think how life's gone by And find there's time to cry I watch the closing doors Count people's lives in wars See starving people die And know there's time to cry
Now, on your death bed you will find Time passes by Then I know you'll realise Your life is past
I can see the mountains falling I can see the children calling I can feel my life exploding Oh, there's time to cry
I can see the children dying I can see the words are lying I can see the world exploding Time passes by
I can see the world is dying I can see the poor folk crying I can feel my life exploding Oh, there's time to cry.
