there comes a time
this man is an angel. period.
There comes a time in life
To put on your coat and go outside
To taste the vinegar of life, bitter life
To taste a second time, its sweet surprise
Sweet surpriseIt’s not that hard to figure it out
When there’s no question, there’s no doubt
I burned an effigy to time, senseless time
To view the miracle, but the water isn’t wine
And that was my crimeThere is a face in the stone
We let it out to find its form
To shape the testament of will, strongest will
Pride, humility, a bitter pill
Bitter pillSweet surrender, oh my Lord
I never thought I’d see
Not surprising, still I find
I’m shaking, crying
But I’m laughing, softlyThere comes a time in life
To put on your coat and go outside
–Glen Phillips, “There comes a Time“
