Lyrics

The empty streets

The songs of twilight

The clouds at rest

The churchbells chiming

A scarecrow shudders

And some birds tremble

I looked at you and saw it's time

The faded flowers

The faded pictures

Of faded lives

Your body waiting

And unfulfilled

With no regrets

And empty heart

And head in hands

I heard them say today it's time

The sunset heavy

On mother mountain

The cattle lowing

The cattle dreaming

The endless rain

In haunted airs

Your loss of hope

We were shown

We were shown it's only time

The smell of rain

The twilight leaning

Against your lips

Waterwheels turning

The forests brooding

You took my hand

And pointed full of pain

That fishes dying

You see the sign that this was time

I waited years for you

Or so it seemed

And stumbled through your world

Praying for just one kiss

To stop my fall from grace

And shelter in your palm

You gave me everything

Both lock and key

The oilclouds see it's only time

If I could have one wish

As in the fairytales

I would unmake my past

And rise like Lazarus

And stand in sunlight

And banish all the dark

That locked my face away

And say to you again

Oh that

That was only time

So willow weep not for me

And oak bend not for me

Though others died for us

And in our place

Though in the secret heart

Raw wound, raw source of all

I heard the news today

Whispered in the dark

At last

At last we know it's time

I knew at last it's only time

I'll come in glory
