Time and Tide

The winter brings the snowdrops

The bluebells colour spring

The summer scent of clover

Autumn seed soar on the wind

The time of our lives

And the rhythm of our days

Take a moment with the flowers

Time and tide, they will not wait

They will not wait

Time and tide, they will not wait

Take a moment with the flowers

Time and tide, they will not wait

You've stood on Malin Head

And seen the great Atlantic swell

With the Orca swimming south

Before the northern darkness fell

You've kissed Kintail's Five Sisters

Walking by the Spanteach Hill

Where ancestors tread

Now their voice is quiet and still

They will not wait

Time and tide, they will not wait

Take a moment with the flowers

Time and tide, they will not wait

The chill of the desert dawn

The hot rocks of Yellowstone

You've tramped the Southern Alps

Where Hillary's skills were honed

The Pacific's silver spray

And Samarkànd's golden domes

There are wonders in this world

And there's a joy in finding home

They will not wait

Time and tide, they will not wait

Take a moment with the flowers

Time and tide, they will not wait

The seasons pass so quickly now

And some old friends are gone

But their voices, they all echo

Through life's busy throng

Our lives are but a heartbeat

In an endless song of fate

Take a moment with the flowers

Time and tide, they will not wait

They will not wait

Time and tide, they will not wait

Take a moment with the flowers

Time and tide, they will not wait

The winter brings the snowdrops

The bluebells colour spring

The summer scent of clover

Autumn seed soar on the wind

The time of our lives

And the rhythm of our days.

Take a moment with the flowers

Time and tide, they will not wait

They will not wait

Time and tide, they will not wait

Take a moment with the flowers

Time and tide, they will not wait

They will not wait

Time and tide, they will not wait

Take a moment with the flowers

Time and tide, they will not wait
