Overture - Def Leppard

And with this message that I bring to you

A beacon of light to see you through

For the time is on our side

And a holy man does say to me

To always to be blind and never to see

It’s not the way he planned it, oh no

The time has come to gather up your thoughts

For you have said your piece

The lords of light will change this land

From famine into feast

The buildings that once stood so tall

Have crumbled to the ground

The silver warriors who came in force

Are nowhere to be found

Time is the essence the priests do say

To restore your faith in man

For the job you do and the role you play

Will help rebuild this land

Through empty streets and dusty fields

We’ll fight for what we need

Protected by our swords and shields

We can replant the seed

The roads ahead are long and winding

On which the bandits thrive

But we have the power of finding

Illusion to keep us alive

So through the valleys and over the hills

We’ll march and sing in rhyme

We’ll fight until we lose our will

For essence is our time

The sun, the moon, the darkened sky

The morning dew reflecting in my eye

The rising mist, the dampened earth

Are just reminders of what life’s worth

And with this message that I bring to you

A beacon of light to see you through

For time is on our side

For time is the essence
