Once Upon a Time - Live in the City of Diamonds Songtext
von Simple Minds

And you
You speak to me tonight
And you say so, you say so
Once upon a time
When love, love was a white dove
And hope, long live hope, could spin the whole world ′round

I'm talking east to west
I′m talking north and south
Get up to the mountain top
Drop unto the ground

You raise me up when I know you're around
God only knows, God only knows
You raise me up, you spin me around
God only knows, God only knows


That's time
Time got excited
Time looked around herself
That′s when we all got started

I hear you, yes still you speak to me tonight
You say how come out of love, is all this cruelty arising?
I said, look, well will you look at you, you′re frightened
I see your smile through weariness
Not much else enlightened
That's a question

You raise me up I know you′re around
God only knows, God only knows
You raise me up, you spin me around
God only knows, God only knows
That's time
You know that′s time
You know that's time
You know that′s time
Time
