[Verse 1: Maya de Vitry] All the gold and silver too Shining in the distance And all I wish to spend with you Is it not time, is it not time?
[Verse 2: Backing vocals by Charles Muench & Oliver Craven] Like hanging fruit upon the tree Shining in the distance Between the orchard and the sea Is it not time, is it not time? [x2]
[Verse 3] That sunlit house upon the hill Shining in the distance A prize to hold, a cup to fill Is it not time, is it not time? We will not wait, barely begun Shining in the distance But if my day should never come Is it not time, is it not time? [x2]
Bells of sorrow start their ringing Shining in the distance Oh, how can we keep from singing? Is it not time, is it not time? [x3]
