lyrics

At the turning of the tide,
when in and out collide
and it seems like nothing’s happening at all.
At the turning of the tide,
we’re standing side by side,
could the barriers between us start to fall?

Oh, I hope so,
’cause we’ve waited for so long,
could a brighter future start today?
And I believe so,
if we say the time has come
and we stand together,
at the turning of the tide.

At the breaking of the day,
when fear gets in the way,
it’s so hard to tell your brother from your foe.
At the breaking of the day,
as the darkness melts away,
could a clearer horizon begin to show?

Oh, I hope so,
’cause we’ve waited for so long,
could a brighter future start today?
And I believe so,
if we say the time has come
and we open up our eyes,
at the breaking of the day.

At the parting of the ways,
if we can’t penetrate the haze,
we’re bound to make mistakes we’ve made before.
Or could the parting of the ways
be the start of better days,
could our future open up to something more?

Oh, I hope so,
’cause we’ve waited for so long,
could a brighter future start today?
And I believe so,
if we say the time has come
and we take the road less travelled,
at the parting of the ways.

How many?
How long?
Be now

John Hickey's The Goat Herder's revenge is a lovely instrumental EP with a great title! It reminds me of Einaudi a bit, and it's great chill-out music. Martin Poulsom
