When you became my mother, there was time
|
You thought I'd be a daughter, but didn't mind
|
And as the world began to measure, and define
|
We had time
|
We had time
|
|
You gave me light and language, and a name
|
You held me to the fire, to the flame
|
Now if I could tell the future, all the same
|
Why would I
|
We have time
|
|
Deep beneath the surface of the earth
|
So many bodies waiting for the word
|
When every child and mother will return
|
Forever
|
We'll have time
|
|
