[-]

Listen easy, you can hear God calling

Walking barefoot by the stream

[-]

Come on to me, your hair's softly falling

On my face as in a dream

 And the time will be our time

 And the grass won't pay no mind

[-]

Saying nothing, lying where the sun is

Baking down upon our sides

[-]

My lips touch you, with their soft wet kisses

Your hands gentle in reply

 And the time will be our time

 And the grass won't pay no mind

Child, touch my soul with your cries

 And the music will know what we've found

I, hear a hundred good-byes

 But today I hear only one sound

 The moment we're living is now

[break]

Now now now now now now now

[-]

Young bird flying, and a soft wind blowing

Cools the sweat inside my palms

[-]

Close my eyes, hear the flowers growing

As you lay sleeping in my arms

 And the time will be our time

 And the grass won't pay no mind

 No the grass won't pay no mind

 (repeat and fade)
