[Verse 1: Maya de Vitry]All the gold and silver tooShining in the distanceAnd all I wish to spend with youIs it not time, is it not time?[Verse 2: Backing vocals by Charles Muench & Oliver Craven]Like hanging fruit upon the treeShining in the distanceBetween the orchard and the seaIs it not time, is it not time? [x2][Verse 3]That sunlit house upon the hillShining in the distanceA prize to hold, a cup to fillIs it not time, is it not time?We will not wait, barely begunShining in the distanceBut if my day should never comeIs it not time, is it not time? [x2]Bells of sorrow start their ringingShining in the distanceOh, how can we keep from singing?Is it not time, is it not time? [x3]Shining in the distance
