The Time Is Now

There was a time
When the world was colder
There was a time
A time we used to play
There was a place
A place where men were bolder
That was a time
A time that's gone away

(Tell me why)
I don't know why
(Tell me why)
I don't know why

There was a time
When fewer words were spoken
There was a time
When time was on our side
There was a way
A way to do the right thing
Now it's too late
That time has passed us by

(Tell me why)
I don't know why
(Tell me why)
I don't know why

(Is it because believers took control?)
Could be. Yeah, it could be
(Is it because they're busy countin' their gold?)
Could be. That could be it

I hear what you're sayin'
I'm just sayin' what you're sayin;
Might be true

(Time is runnin'
Time is runnin' out)
Tears will fall, tears will fall

(Time to jump ship
Time to scream and shout)
Tears will fall, tears will fall
(Cry)
(Cry)
(Cry)
(Cry)
(Cry)
(Cry, Cry Cry)

There was a time
A time we must remember
A time and place
Before we lost our way
There was a world
A world more glued together
Now is the time to
Get on your knees and pray

(Tell me why)
I don't know why
(Tell me why)
I don't know why

(Is it because it's true the fix is in?)
Could be, Yeah, it could be
(Is it because the beginning was the end?)
Could be, that could be it

I hear what you're sayin'
I'm just sayin' what you're sayin'
Might be true
