lyrics

how many years have i watched the sun rise
out of the city into the night sky
how many times has a mother heard the cry
of a new life
water pours down out of the sky
streams become rivers that carry away
buildings and bridges, and cars float by
how many tomorrows are were lost today

time is an image that never fades
time is not a clock. time is a wave
another boat to the other side
time is today and time is a page

a lonely boy walks on the shore
and his wishes are part of all
he looks into the starry night
at building's and bridges in the sky

how many years have i watched the sun rise
out of the city into the night sky
how many times has a mother heard the cry
...... of a new life
