Spinning and swirling with the winds of change as the sun shines down on my tired face Nods and smiles from people passing by this is my time and this is my place Who are we if not for our love what drives life to be worth living How can we cope with the sands of time how can we go on without forgiving So many things that are easy to hold on to so many tears we never cried But what fills the voids of empty promises what relights the flame that has died If not for ourselves then for who do we squirm and struggle and fight We trust in the freedom that we know awaits us We must have faith, for this tunnel ends in light

A time for darkness, A time for light
Spinning and swirling with the winds of change as the sun shines down on my tired face Nods and smiles from people passing by this is my time and this is my place Who are we if not for our love what drives life to be worth living How can we cope with the sands of time how can we go on without forgiving So many things that are easy to hold on to so many tears we never cried But what fills the voids of empty promises what relights the flame that has died If not for ourselves then for who do we squirm and struggle and fight We trust in the freedom that we know awaits us We must have faith, for this tunnel ends in light
