This is the time
We waited too long
And I'm wondering
Where I belong
We have lost
We're out of control
When we fail nature speaks to us all
This is the time
I'll tell you why
The world's left alone
Now's the time
to make right what's wrong
We have lost
We're out of control
If we're straight can we hear nature's call
When we fail nature speaks to us all
This is the time
So what's the world to be
Just a luxury
A temporary sing?
But what have we got
When is gone away?
We need to come to see
What the Earth should be: a santuary free
A renewed paradise still alive
This is the time
The sky and the sea
We speak the paragons
We planted to seed
We have lost
We're out of control
If we're straight can we hear nature's call
When we fail nature speaks to us all
This is the time
So what's the world to be
Just a luxury
A temporary sing?
But what have we got
When is gone away?
We need to come to see
What the Earth should be: a santuary free
All that we sacrified
In the end has it's price
A renewed paradise still alive
In your eyes
This is the time
So what's the world to be
Just a luxury
A temporary sing?
But what have we got
When is gone away?
We need to come to see
What the Earth should be: a santuary free
All that we sacrified
In the end has it's price
A renewed paradise still alive
In your eyes
Still alive in your eyes
