The Time Has Come Lyrics

Mike Oldfield The Time Has Come

A thousand years they waited for
someone who would be true
and now the empty years have passed
the sunlight shines anew
Chorus
  Someone who knows no fear
  I feel him near
  The child was born to be a king, a king,
  And The Time Has Come
He tamed the wild wind when he passed
the birds and beasts he knew
until he came to rest at last
the tall gates he passed through
Bridge Chorus
  And now the story's just begun
  A thousand years to stay
  We wake each morning with the sun
  To live our dreams away
Bridge Chorus
