There Is A Time, lyric by Mary Black

from the songs album By The Time It Gets Dark

There is a time in life it seems
For believing in dreams, for me it's gone
And though i realize today
Dreams are empty anyway, i still feel wronged.

Chorus

I felt cheated when you went away
But not as defeated as i felt the day
You came back and we found so little to say.

There is a time in life i know
When we all must outgrow young ideals
And the wisdom that we gain
Is paid for with the pain i now feel.

Chorus

There is a time in life it seems
For believing in dreams for me it's gone.
