John Denver It's About Time

From The Album It's About Time.... Lyrics. There's a full moon over India and Gandhi lives again.
Who's to say you have to lose for someone else to win?
In the eyes of all the people, the look is much the same,
for the first is just the last one when you play a deadly game.
It's about time we realize it, we're all in this together.
It's about time we find out, it's all of us or none.
It's about time we recognize it, these changes in the weather.
It's about time, it's about changes, and it's about time.

There's a light in the Vatican window for all the world to see
and a voice cries in the wilderness and sometimes he speaks for me.
I suppose I love him most of all when he kneels to kiss the land,
with his lips upon our mother's breast, he makes his strongest stand.
It's about time we start to see it, the earth is our only home.
It's about time we start to face it, we can't make it here all alone.
It's about time we start to listen to the voices in the wind,
it's about time and it's about changes and it's about time.

There's a man who is my brother, I just don't know his name.
But I know his home and family because I know we feel the same.
And it hurts me when he's hungry and when his children cry.
I too am a father, and that little one is mine.
It's about time we begin it, to turn the world around.
It's about time we start to make it, the dream we've always known.
It's about time we start to live it, the family of man.
It's about time, it's about changes and it's about time.
It's about peace and it's about plenty and it's about time,
It's about you and me together and it's about time.

The first time I heard this recording back in the late 80's at a retreat it brought such tears to my eyes. And, now to see this put to such beautiful video, what a wonderful tribute to a wonderful artist. I am sure that john is smiling knowing this has been done...Thank You for doing so.

Once again catbrush123, you have added a wonderful visual to one of JD's best songs. Thank you.

I consider some songs as GEMS, inspired from Heaven, this one goes to my list of GEMS. I had not heard it for many years, my sis and I bought the cassette in the 80's and the melody instantly caught me. At that time I didn't know enough English to understand the lyrics but now I feel captivated twice. Beautiful vid, including the polar bears family. PEACE

[ArcticWolfDemon]

He's my favorite singer of all time. His song mean so much. Infact, he died when I was four and when I found out I cried SO hard and for such a long time... I still cry about that, because he makes me think of that he'd be the son of Mother Earth or something. ^_^

Every world leader must watch this video! "There's a man who is my brother, I just don't know his name. But I know his home and family because I know we feel the same. And it hurts me when he's hungry and when his children cry.

I too am a father, and that little one is mine. It's about time we begin it, to turn the world around..."
