| [00:04.59] |
I was coming home in the dead of night |
| [00:09.98] |
In a cruel October storm |
| [00:16.83] |
When an old grey man came into sight |
| [00:22.30] |
His jacket sodden and torn |
| [00:28.93] |
The mist was tangled in his hand |
| [00:33.23] |
As I asked where is your home |
| [00:37.65] |
He spoke as if I was not there |
| [00:41.98] |
And his voice was cold as stone |
| [00:47.67] |
Cold as stone |
| [00:53.20] |
T'was in that far-off land of mine |
| [00:58.21] |
Dear land I'll never see |
| [01:02.98] |
The grey church like a ghost stood up |
| [01:07.78] |
And the sundial spoke to me |
| [01:12.56] |
The grey church like a ghost stood up |
| [01:16.61] |
And the sundial spoke to me |
| [01:21.24] |
It spoke into this soul of mine |
| [01:25.62] |
This day this day is thine |
| [01:31.16] |
This day is thine |
| [01:36.64] |
The bright-eyed baby Bunsen flowers |
| [01:41.49] |
Showered sweetness on the spring |
| [01:46.54] |
And in the dark green shade I heard |
| [01:51.32] |
Singers of the deep wood sing |
| [01:56.15] |
And in the dark green shade I heard |
| [02:00.17] |
Singers of the deep wood sing |
| [02:05.06] |
And that old sundial had it's say |
| [02:09.23] |
This day no other day |
| [02:14.62] |
No other day |
| [02:36.73] |
No other day |
| [02:42.04] |
The players of the playtime pass |
| [02:46.99] |
How swift the seasons turn |
| [02:51.74] |
For what we strive and most may love |
| [02:56.69] |
Still never yet may earn |
| [03:01.47] |
For what we strive and most may love |
| [03:05.80] |
Still never yet may earn |
| [03:10.06] |
The old sundial it still speaks on |
| [03:14.59] |
This day is nearly gone |
| [03:20.48] |
Nearly gone |
| [03:42.28] |
Nearly gone |
| [03:47.80] |
The kisses and the fallen dreams |
| [03:52.57] |
Hearts that could not hold their pain |
| [03:57.05] |
Seem holier in the mist of years |
| [04:02.34] |
That old sundial speaks again |
| [04:07.07] |
The tears get lost in the mist of years |
| [04:11.21] |
And the sundial speaks again |
| [04:15.52] |
Stern teacher of this heart of mine |
| [04:20.13] |
This day so lost is thine |
| [04:25.55] |
This day is thine |
| [04:31.04] |
My heart is lost in the mist of years |
| [04:35.47] |
It cannot hold it's pain |
| [04:39.43] |
That sundial speaks in this soul of mine |
| [04:44.04] |
This day what's lost is gone |
| [04:49.55] |
The day is gone |
