Time is a Holy Ghost

Tell me again,

tell me again,

what was that you said?

 

Neighbor of mine

neighbor of mine,

a love that knows no end?

 

Oh my my, now a babe's at your door

 

Tell me again,

tell me again,

a love that knows no more

 

This is the place,

this is the place

given to you to keep

 

Now you're white in the face,

white in the face,

like the ghost of the barrier reef

 

Oh my my, why it's no hit-and-run

 

No stepping aside,

hiding your eyes,

you see what's done is done

 

If it's Love and Grace

we admire most,

Time, as we race,

is a Holy Ghost

to find it

Now you won't you tell me again,

tell me again,

what we held so grand?

Neighbor of mine,

neighbor to all,

don't play dumb, the blood's on your hands

Here you see now, a lamb in the sun

Neighbor of all,

lover of all,

the time for that has come

If it's Love and Grace

we admire most,

Time, as we race,

is the Holy Ghost

to find it
