Lyrics
The Time Has Come
All these years I’ve lived so strange
Strange as the darkest fish at the bottom of the darkest sea.
Never used my eyes, I never used my smile
Thought that’s the only life that life could offer me
Chorus:
But, oh my love, the time has come
For sunny days sitting on the grass whispering silly things in each other’s ear
Oh my love, the time has come
And I feel like it’s here to stay.
I travelled through the world, and I’ve travelled off the rails
And no matter what philosophy I’ve tried, I can never stop biting my nails
Never could shine and I’ve been too bored to sin
And I’ve broken down in the middle of the day in utter desolation
Chorus:
But oh my love, the time has come
For sunny days, walking hand in hand in the park smiling at the small dogs
Oh my love, the time has come
And I feel like it’s here to stay.
