[Verse 1]
Comes a time when you're drifting
Comes a time when you settle down
Comes a light, feelings lifting
Lift that baby right up off the ground

[Chorus]
Oh, this old world
Keeps spinning round
It's a wonder tall trees
Ain't layin' down
There comes a time

[Verse 2]
You and I, we were captured
We took our souls and we flew away
We were right, we were giving
That's how we kept what we gave away

[Chorus]
