|
And you |
|
Yes you speak to me tonight |
|
And you say so, say so |
|
That once upon a time |
|
When love, love was a white dove |
|
And hope, long live hope, could spin the whole world 'round |
|
I'm talking east to west |
|
I'm talking lost and found |
|
Get up to the mountain top |
|
I'm going to drop unto the ground |
|
That's once upon a time |
|
You raise me up when i know you're around |
|
But god only knows, what god only knows |
|
You lift me up and you spin me around |
|
God only knows, but god only knows |
|
That's time |
|
Time looked around herself |
|
Time got excited |
|
That's when we all got started |
|
Still i hear you, yes still you speak to me tonight |
|
You say then how come out of love, is all this cruelty arising? |
|
Well i said, look, well will you look at you, you're frightened |
|
I see that you smile through weariness |
|
But there is not much else enlightened |
|
Well, that's a question down to time |
|
You life me up when i know you're around |
|
God only knows, god only knows |
|
Still you raise me up when i know you're around |
|
God only knows, god only knows |
|
That's time |
