lyrics

Long day today
Sun is beating down
Deep into September

Keep up the pace
You know they need it now
How do I remember?

Out of the blue
I think of you
You've always known exactly what to do

I hear the call to me
A siren from the sea
Go and be the man you've always wanted to be

And now I’ve got to face my time
And now I’ve got to face my time

Rushing through time
Though seasons never yield
And I've been living thirties

Bells start to chime
When wheat grows in the field
I need you to remind me now

I try to see
Been diving in too deep
Drowning in the possibilities

When I turn to look around
There’s countless sights and sounds
I’ve gotta fight to keep my feet firm on the ground

And now I’ve got to face my time
And now I’ve got to face my time

Ticking away
I’ll do my best to lead
Letting all the light in

Feeding the flame
That fire inside of me
With no sign of dying down as I begin

One day at a time
My path has no straight lines
But there’s beauty and there’s heart in the design

I’ve got to pay my dues
What’s old can be made new
I held on to a world I never knew

And now I’ve got to face my time
And now I’ve got to face my time
