The mornin' that the world began God reached out and closed His hand And when it opened up again A moment vanished in the wind Since that day, it's never stopped No matter how you wind the clock And untold billions lived and died And time was never on their side
Seasons come and seasons go Sunrise, sunset, rain, and snow And every time the world turns round A brand new shiny day is found We pray to whom we fear the most The Father, Son, the Holy Ghost So take whatever fate provides And time is never on our side
Sometimes an hour hurtles by Sometimes an instant never dies Some days crawl and others fly And ours is not to reason why And woe to them that hesitate 'And good things come to those that wait' Whoever told you that one lied And time is never on our side Time is never on our side
