Music and lyric: Loreena McKennitt

Now that the time has come
Soon gone is the day
There upon some distant shore
You’ll hear me say

Long as the day in the summer time
Deep as the wine dark sea
I’ll keep your heart with mine.
Till you come to me.

There like a bird I‘d fly
High through the air
Reaching for the sun’s full rays
Only to find you there

And in the night when our dreams are still
Or when the wind calls free
I’ll keep your heart with mine
Till you come to me

Now that the time has come
Soon gone is the day
There upon some distant shore
You’ll hear me say

Long as the day in the summer time
Deep as the wine dark sea
I’ll keep your heart with mine.
Till you come to me

wait. don’t let this line go slack. don’t go alone into the cold. wait. don’t give up on this yet. I know that there’s more you haven’t told. wait my love, just one more thought…wait my love, I haven’t got time in my life to watch you drift out to sea. so please, wait. don’t let this line go slack. I want to bring you back to where I know you. wait. don’t give up on this yet. I just want you to let you let me hold you. wait my love, just one more thought…wait my love, I haven’t got time in my life to watch you drift away. but I’ve all kinds of time if you’ll stay. I know we’re transcontinental, 1:30 a.m. and there’s not even a wire, just a whispering in air. I know we’re transcontinental, 1:30 a.m. but I’m here.
