There was a time, when days seemed long,
always more, never done.
There I touched you – forever time,
forever time, when time was young.
There is a time, together now.
So short a time, and daily less.
Sweet moments, but so countable,
this now time, time alone with you.
There'll be a time, when counting's done,
when rush and retrospect are all.
Tomorrow time draws closer now,
feel my hand, so soon, so soon.
What color, oh I dreamed it once –
What flight, what wind, what sound.
What distant forest floor, what leaves,
what shore – your eyes at dawn.
These are the days, the time stands still.
Clocks smile back, hands motionless.
Ever dawn, and noon, and night,
and ever you beside me here.
