Original music and lyrics by Vicky Oldham.
(Chord start: G)
[VERSE 1]
In the stillness of the night, I traveled in my mind,
To seasons in my life, those places I could find,
So I could understand, and no longer be afraid,
So I could clearly see, the choices that I’ve made.
[VERSE 2]
In the silence of a dream, upon a cloud I flew,
To a moment in my life, when I am there with you,
To see our time together and the things we used to do,
And what we gave to others, those gifts we never knew.
[CHORUS]
On the wings of time, lighter than the air,
On the wings of time, our hearts are always there,
Forever reaching out to everyone we’ve known,
On the wings of time, our lives are never gone.
[VERSE 3]
In a moment’s reverie, I traveled to the past,
To a time I thought, that everything would last,
Remembering my youth, but that was long ago,
Oh, the lessons that I’ve learned… the change in what I know!
[VERSE 4]
Thoughts and memories, engraved in time and space,
Like lines upon a phonograph, continue in our place,
For someone in the future to play it all again,
So what we give to others, forever will remain.
[CHORUS]
On the wings of time, lighter than the air,
On the wings of time, our hearts are always there,
Forever reaching out to everyone we’ve known,
On the wings of time, our lives are never gone.
