Itâs About Time
This song appears on two albums, and was first released on the Itâs About Time album, and has also been released on the Country Classics album.
Thereâs a full moon over India and Gandhi lives again
Whoâs to say you have to lose for someone else to win
In the eyes of all the people the look is much the same
For the first is just the last one when you play a deadly game
Itâs about time we realize it weâre all in this together
Itâs about time we find out itâs all of us or none
Itâs about time we recognize it these changes in the weather
Itâs about time, itâs about changes and itâs about time
Thereâs a light in the Vatican window for all the world to see
And a voice cries in the wilderness and sometimes he speaks for me
I suppose I love him most of all when he kneels to kiss the land
With his lips upon our Motherâs breast he makes his strongest stand
Itâs about time we start to see it the Earth is our only home
Itâs about time we start to face it we canât make it here all alone
Itâs about time we start to listen to the voices in the wind
Itâs about time, itâs about changes and itâs about time
Thereâs a man who is my brother, I just donât know his name
But I know his home and family because I know we feel the same
And it hurts me when heâs hungry and when his children cry
I too am a father and that little one is mine
Itâs about time we begin to turn the world around
Itâs about time we start to make it the dream weâve always known
Itâs about time we start to live the family of man
Itâs about time, itâs about changes and itâs about time
Itâs about peace and itâs about plenty and itâs about time
Itâs about you and me together and itâs about time
