| When the word is out from the other side | |
| She turns around | |
| Cause day and night she's waited patiently | |
| Now a different kind of world out there | |
| Is to be found | |
| It's over not for everyone to see | |
| This is the way it's meant to be | |
| It's the way that we make things right | |
| It's the way that we hold on tight | |
| I know, it's the sigh of the times | |
| It's the way that we make things turn | |
| It's the way that we live and learn | |
| I know, it's the sigh of the times | |
| It wakes him up, he turns around | |
| And now he's gone | |
| He's been waitin' for this moment desperately | |
| Now the time is right, he's turnin' back | |
| He's going home | |
| Yeah it's over now for everyone to see | |
| This is the way it's meant to be | |
| It's the way that we make things right | |
| It's the way that we hold on tight | |
| I know, it's the sigh of the times | |
| It's the way that we make things turn | |
| It's the way that we live and learn | |
| I know, it's the sigh of the times | |
| And everytime it's on my mind | |
| I fell so insecure | |
| It worries me to end up here alone | |
| But everytime I realize I need her more and more | |
| I'd never make it on my own | |
| It's the way that we make things right | |
| It's the way that we hold on tight | |
| I know, it's the sigh of the times | |
| It's the way that we make things turn | |
| It's the way that we live and learn | |
| I know, it's the sigh of the times |
