And there's a time, there's a time for living Like a mother hearing baby's first cry There's a time, there's a time for dying Like a family gathered 'round by the bedside The time goes by We blink our eyes The love we gave, the love we lost The time goes by And there's a time, there's a time for grieving Like you just can't get warm on a cold winter's night But there's a time, there's a time for healing It's like the golden hues of morning's first light And the time goes by We blink our eyes The love we gave, the love we lost The time goes by The time goes by We blink our eyes, yeah The time goes by We blink our eyes The love we gave, the love we lost The time goes by The memories will carry on The time goes by Oh, yes it does But we will survive, yeah
