This Is The Time (1990) - Savatage

Watching in silence, I hesitate: It was not in the plans

All of our lives we could only wait: It was out of our hands

And every war where we took the day, it was all in our heads

And though in the dark we dream at night, they were better unsaid

But this is the time and this is the place

And these are the signs that we must embrace

The moment is now, in all history

The time has arrived and this is the one place to be

Yeah, yeah

We placed our years in the hourglass, they were never unearned

And we seemed destined to watch them pass — it was never our turn

But this is the time and this is the place

And these are the signs that we must embrace

The moment is now, in all history

The time has arrived and this is the one place to be

Yeah, yeah

This is the time and this is the place

And these are the signs that we must embrace

The moment is now, in all history

The time has arrived and this is the one place to be

Yeah, yeah
