Wake - Heidi Berry

The time is slipping and running away

All the hours in procession

Lining up day by day

What you thought you could never hold in your hand

You find now as simple as a grain of sand

You have got to wake up, now

You have got to shake the dust from your eyes

And narrow down the space between

Your desires and your deeds

The time is rolling and stretching along

And the past is singing and calling your name

Tomorrow’s overtaken by yesterday

And what’s left is exceeded by what’s already been

You have got to wake up, now

You have got to find your own voice

And narrow down the space between

What you have and what you need

Stand in the light

And feel the wind on your face

Stretch out your arms

And you will rise up into the air

You have got to wake up, now

You have got to find realise

That no matter what is said

You have the right to be
