If time could stand still for even a while, We'd live ageless and timeless and our spirits would smile.

There'd be faces of children frozen in time faces of parents living their prime.

If time could stand still for even a while, We'd be tranquil and safe and our spirits would smile.

We would worry only of our problems today, and not of tomorrow, perhaps yesterday.

If time could stand still for even a while, We'd live inside a dream and our spirits would smile.

All our anxieties come from tomorrow, and somewhere in our future lies the key to our sorrorws.

If time could stand still and we could just close the door, We'd live ageless and timeless and our spirits would soar.
