Written by Neil Diamond

Listen easy

You can hear God callin

Walking barefoot by a stream

Come unto me

Your hair softly fallin

On my face as in a dream

And the time will be our time

And the grass wont pay no mind



Sayin nothin

Lyin where the sun is

Bakin down upon our sighs

My lips touch you

With their soft wet kisses

Your hands gentle in reply



And the time will be our time

And the grass wont pay no mind



Child, touch my soul with your cries

And the music will know what we found

I hear a hundred goodbyes

But today I hear only one sound

The moment were living is now

Na, na, na, na, na, na



Young bird flyin

And a soft wind blowin

Cools the sweat inside my palms

Close my eyes and see the flowers growin

As you lay sleeping in my arms



And the time will be our time

And the grass wont pay no mind
