Lyrics:

Okay, you don't expect comedy from me do ya? (Yes)
You won't get it
Okay, uhm, you know, I have to say something
I get a very strange feeling about time
Coming out here and sitting amongst all of you here
It's a priv-, very privileged position to be sitting where I am
Uhm, I can hardly believe it, it's, it's like you have to keep pinching yourself
It was almost 19 years ago when Queen last trod the boards up here
In Sheffield, and, uh, in some ways it seems like yesterday
In some ways it's a very long time
And I look around and I see a lot of wonderful, friendly faces
Thank you all for being here
And the amazing thing is, the amazing thing is, some of you I do know
And some of you guys I look and, and you kind of look familiar
But actually, you know, you were probably not, or, or even just born
When, uh, when this last happened
Welcome to you all, we love ya
Which brings me to the theme of this song which I'd like to sing for you
And I'd like you to sing with me if you're up for it, do you wanna sing? (yes)
Okay, I'm just gonna tell ya, this song is about time as well
It's about a, it's about a man who goes off in a silver spaceship
To, uh, discover new lands, which he manages to do, but when he comes back
He, uh, he feels like he's only a year older, but to the people back on Earth
His planet is a hundred years older
And ah, you wanna sing? (Yes)
It goes like this

In the year of '39
Assembled here the volunteers
In the days when the lands were few
And the ship sailed out
Into the blue and sunny morn'
The sweetest sight ever seen
And the night followed day
And the story tellers say
That the score brave souls inside
For so many a lonely day
Sailed across the milky seas
Ne'er looked back, never feared, never cried
Don't you (hear my call?)
(Though you're many years away)
Don't you hear me calling you?
Write your letters in the sand
For the day I'll take your hand
In the land that our grandchildren knew
In the year of '39
Came a ship in from the blue
The volunteers came home that day
And they bring good news
Of a world so newly born
Though their hearts so heavily weigh
For the earth is old and grey
Little darling will away
But, my love, this cannot be
For so many years have gone
Though I'm older but a year
Your mother's eyes, from your eyes, cry to me
Don't you hear my call?
Though you're many years away
(Don't you hear me calling you?)
Write your letters in the sand
For the day I'll take your hand
In the land that our grandchildren knew
Don't you hear my call?
Though you're many years away
Don't you hear me calling you?
All your letters in the sand
Cannot heal me like your hand
For my life, still ahead, God bless all of you

Whoa, thank you
