I saw the Berlin Wall fall
|
I saw Mandela walk free
|
I saw a dream whose time has come
|
Change my history -- so keep on dreaming
|
|
Deam on dreamer, dreamer
|
|
In the best of times and in the worst of times
|
gotta keep looking at the skyline
|
not at a hole in the road
|
Your time will come, sister, your time will come
|
nobody's gonna rush history, we have to ease it along
|
-- just ease it along
|
|

|
Your time will come
