My Time Has Come Lyrics - Singles - Phillips Anthony

Dust drew down the desert night 

Stallions kick and moan 

All along the ridge the stormy light 

Assailing the fortresses of stone 

Father Eli took his watch, 

His keen eyes fixed right into the sky 

Daybreak rose, his chair was rocking still 

No message could anyone find 

Yena had a secret dream, 

To touch the stuccoed stars 

From the deep of snow-enchanted woods 

He called them from afar 

Hunter's by the Deadman's Spit 

All struck dumb, the forest crowned in flame 

The dragon rose into the burning air 

Then everything lay still again - and so it's.. 

Oh, my time has come 

I never hoped for something quite like this 

Oh, my time has come 

I never hoped for something quite like this 

Shadows in the creeping mist 

The dark beams circled close, 

Baronesses played a hand of whist 

Unseeing, the monolithic host 

Meters racing, dials jammed, 

The heat sears, the metal twists and tears 

They're all out on Pan Am 109 

The giants melted into thin air... and hear me... 

Oh, my time has come 

I never hoped for something quite like this 

Oh I wait in the night 

I'd packed my bags by ten past six 

Subscriptions paid and sent 

Through the fields to the landing strip 

I'll always wonder what you meant 

Diamonds dancing, mountains shake 

Wind bellows, the valley struck with gold, 

With my photo of the Prince of Wales, 

I might not get back there till you're old... 

Oh, my time has come 

I never hoped for something quite like this 

Oh, my time has come 

I never hoped for something quite like this
