[ti:In These Times]

[al:Lovers Speak]
[00:13.41]These are the times
[00:16.90]Tears fill the back of your eyes
[00:18.72]These are the times
[00:20.80]The birds migrate across the skies
[00:25.94]These are the times
[00:28.81]What hope you had, you forget
[00:31.52]These wicked times
[00:33.58]You're bound to feel all sanity is lost
[00:37.94]In these times everyone needs love
[00:44.24]In these times do you pray to God
[00:49.57]In these times everyone needs comfort
[00:54.23]And would welcome a hand to hold
[00:57.78]Compassion is the fire that burns the hurt that pains the soul
[01:03.40]And though my eyes are so polluted
[01:07.50]By the sight of lost desires
[01:09.71]I can see you standing by
[01:17.50]This is my fear
[01:19.96]That distance will come between us
[01:22.88]And it could mean nothing, nothing
[01:26.57]To get from here to there
[01:30.10]We own the world
[01:33.16]And everything that's in it
[01:35.84]Let our love shine
[01:37.59]Like listening raindrops, resting on a rose
[01:42.80]In these times celebrate our love
[01:48.54]In these times let's be thankful of
[01:53.76]All the days we can spend together
[01:58.39]And I'm happy to hold your hand
[02:01.80]Your passion is the food that feeds the hunger in my heart
[02:07.60]And now my eyes are clearly open
[02:11.12]No more longing for the past
[02:13.81]Now I have you in these times
[02:21.85]In these times everyone needs love
[02:28.44]In these times do you pray to God
[02:33.75]In these times everyone needs comfort
[02:38.47]And would welcome a hand to hold
[02:41.90]Compassion is the fire that burns the hurt that pains the soul
[02:47.50]And though my eyes are so polluted
[02:51.35]By the sight of lost desires
[02:53.98]Good to have you in these times
