Time Is Time
Yes · Essentially Yes (Spec) [2006]
Time has moved
Night has come at last
To shine on you
Last night
I looked inside the moon
And I knew
You were real
So every time
I look at you
You know
Exactly how I feel
Time has saved us
Time has moved
Night has come at last
To shine on you
Take the time
To know how you
Will fill my life
Revolving in my heart
Time has saved us
Time has moved us
Night has come at last
To shine on you again
