It's the time of turning and there's something stirring outside.
It's the time of turning and the old world's falling.
Nothing you can do can stop by the next emerging.
Time of the turning and we'd better learn to say our goodbyes. (Peter Gabriel)

It's the time of turning and there's something stirring outside. It's the time of turning and the old world's falling. Nothing you can do can stop by the next emerging. Time of the turning and we'd better learn to say our goodbyes.
