A Matter of Time
Waking to see the Light
The Dawning of a true fantasy
Never letting it slide away
Holding it near to your heart always
Wanting to see your eyes
Bright Stars gleaming in cloudless skies
Can you see the light
In the passage of a dream
A matter of time
A matter of time
Seconds pass like days away
Moments lost without a trace
A matter of time
A matter of time
Can I see the forest, before the trees
Searching for a path to reach out in front of me
To find the means to be what we want to be
To find the words to say what we want to say
A matter of time
A matter of time
A matter of time
A matter of time
Standing here at the edge of time
Waiting for the sun to shine warm rays
Beaming light incandescent haze
Blinding the truth with our misintended pride
I opened my eyes and still you're not there
What happened to all of the time we meant to share
So many promises in the passage of a dream
A matter of time
A matter of time
Seconds pass like days away
Moments lost without a trace
A matter of time
A matter of time
I have often wandered into the night
I have often stumbled within the light
Ancient stories have been told
The hands of time still feel so cold
A matter of time
A matter of time
A matter of time
A matter of time
