The time has come and I’ve got to run away.
Put your ear to the ground.
Why can’t you hear that the sun is a creeping around.
It’s the end of the day, moving into the night.
Hot the night.
Its the end of another day and the ocean calls to me.
Lift your eyes and you can see.
It was meant to be.
You and me on an island in the sun.
Watching the moon climb the sky as the wind and the night plays on.
I think our time has come.
Something is changing in the sky,
Can’t you feel it?
What ever it is I don’t know why,
But I know it.
The beat if falling closer to the mark,
You can hear it.
The wind is blowing it through my heart.
I can taste it.
The beat is falling closer to the time.
The world moves on as if it’s blind.
In the end, you will be what you intend.
Daddy was a hard man,
but it’s not the way it seems.
His daddy was even harder,
he had ice running in his veins.
Daddy had small dreams,
a little house just for Mom.
A simple life would be just fine,
for her and the little ones.
When your dreams are so small
and the battles fought are so grand
It’s hard to explain why but,
This world can ruin all plans.
It changes that loving face,
No longer filled with grace,
Now stern and bold, hard and cold,
To fight this world and this war to the bitter end.
Daddy I did love, but we did not have the time.
This world has taken you from me.
It just was not right.
So once again I face the grand enemy of us all.
This is the war you fought for your entire life.
Time keeps on ticking stealing our lives.
It breaks people down and leaves smashed dreams as you die.
I may spend my life fighting
With the ticking clock and other battles not fought
But I will not lose the faith in my own thoughts
I will rock and I will roll.
You will hear me in the heavens.
and feel me in your soul.
I will burn the sun and stop the wind
Boil the sea and drown the moon
Well if I could you know I would
I would do it all for you.
I can tell by the tone in your voice,
the emptiness in my sail.
It’s been so long since us I know.
Days and years have come and gone,
like a running endless waterfall.
After all this time the storm moves on.
You are the wind.
You are the sea.
In my sail you are the breeze.
I can see the curve of the earth on the horizion,
As the sun starts to rise.
I can see the clouds rolling in from the west,
As the sun starts to climb.
I can feel the breeze blowing through the trees,
As the birds start to fly.
I know everything is going to be all right,
When I look into your eyes.
Everyday is just a little more faded.
I awake just a little more jaded.
