Time

Lyrics: Vangelis Kratsas Music: Vangelis Kratsas + A.I. From the record "Swans in the Red Lake". https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLftlqpQ83Ij1c9oFnb1tLxollAxRgOa73 When will the bird with the white wings of hope Fly again over us? When will we learn to count only on ourselves Cause there’s nobody else we can trust? When will the poets reveal to us all The truth that they hide so well? When will the merchants knock our door And our souls are only left to sell? It’s a matter of time, my friend It’s a matter of time Life is just a tick of the clock And it soon goes by When will the eyes that look worried and scared Become the mirrors we fear? When will we look in these mirrors and see The shape of our fears getting clear? When will our habits turn to a disease That noone can cure with a needle? And it only can vanish if the children in us Solve the eternal riddle It’s a matter of time, my friend It’s a matter of time Life is just a tick of the clock And it soon goes by When will the heat of a lovers’ kiss Break the ice in our hearts? When will a child with a gun in his hand Remind us that we’ve come apart? When will the scars in our faces exist Only because of our smiles? When will the oceans of tears run dry? When will we think for a while? We run out of time, my friend We run out of time The clock stopped its ticking for good So let’s say goodnight...
