Savatage - This Is The Time lyrics

[Taken from Dead Winter Dead] [Music & Words: Jon Oliva, Paul O'Neill] Watching in silence, I hesitate: It was not in the plans All of our lives we could only wait: It was out of our hands And every war where we took the day, it was all in our heads And though in the dark we dream at night, they were better unsaid [chorus] But this is the time and this is the place And these are the signs that we must embrace The moment is now, in all history The time has arrived and this is the one place to be Yeah, yeah We placed our years in the hourgla**, they were never unearned And we seemed destined to watch them pa** - it was never our turn [chorus] But this is the time and this is the place And these are the signs that we must embrace The moment is now, in all history The time has arrived and this is the one place to be Yeah, yeah [lead break] [solo] [chorus] This is the time and this is the place And these are the signs that we must embrace The moment is now, in all history The time has arrived and this is the one place to be Yeah, yeah [extro]
