Lyrics

The time we’ve lost
Can’t be replaced
What shall we do
With what remains?
Time may bend – but it hasn’t yet for me
 
Some live their dreams
Some push them away
But we made it here
Tempting our fate
Time may bend – but not enough for me
 
Calling out to the universe
Shine your light on me
The future of Mother Earth
Shine on, shine on
You’re a mystery
Open up to me
Shine, shine on me
 
Calling out to the universe
Shine your light on me
The future of Mother Earth
Shine on, shine on
You’re a mystery
Open up to me
Shine, shine on me
