There Is a Time Lyrics

Come to my arms and I will be so tender
Let me reveal all that living can be
Snug like a child in the shadow of my shoulder
Then as I hold you, you may start lovin' me.
There is a time for spring and for sighing
A time for love
A time to for crying
A time for dreams and for sweet pretending
And then it seems that suddenly its ending

This time, this time, this time there's no time to waste
We know the time we have can not be replaced
This time, this time, this time let's not hesitate
We know our time is brief and it can not wait.

There is a time for hope and beginning
A time to lose a time to for winning
A time to waste on lazy vacations
And a time for haste and beautiful temptations

This time, this time this time there's no time to waste
We know the time we have can not be replaced
This time this time this time let's not hesitate
We know our time is brief and it can not wait.

There is a time for fame and for glory
A time for pride, a time to be sorry
A time to drift on wide summer riddles
A time for snow and icicles and shivers.

This time, this time, this time there's no time to waste
We know the time we have can not be replaced
This time, this time, this time let's not hesitate
We know our time is brief and it can not wait.

There is a time of Autumn and sadness
A time for youth and love's happy madness
A time for truth and being together
To go for walks in sunny, brittle weather

This time, this time, this time there's no time to waste
We fade away as fast as the morning breaks
This time, this time, this time let's not hesitate
So take my love, my life my eagerness this time

This time, this time this time there's no time to waste
We fade away as fast as the morning breaks
This time this time this time let's not hesitate
So take my love, my life my eager kiss
For time flows on,
And on, and on.

LE TEMPS
(There Is A Time)
(Charles Aznavour / Jeff Davis) (1965)

Charles Aznavour (France)

Laisse-moi guider tes pas dans l'existence
Laisse-moi la chance de me faire aimer
Viens comme une enfant au creux de mon épaule
Laisse-moi le rôle de te faire oublier
Le temps qui va
Le temps qui sommeille
Le temps sans joie
Le temps des merveilles
Le temps d'une jour
Temps d'une seconde
Le temps qui court
Et celui qui gronde

{Refrain:}
Le temps, le temps
Le temps et rien d'autre
Le tien, le mien
Celui qu'on veut nôtre
Le temps passé
Celui qui va naître
Le temps d'aimer
Et de disparaître
Le temps des pleurs
Le temps de la chance
Le temps qui meurt
Le temps des vacances
{au Refrain}

Le temps glorieux
Le temps d'avant-guerre
Le temps des jeux
Le temps des affaires
Le temps joyeux
Le temps des mensonges
Le temps frileux
Et le temps des songes
{au Refrain}

Le temps des crues
Le temps des folies
Le temps perdu
Le temps de la vie
Le temps qui vient
Jamais ne s'arrête
Et je sais bien
Que la vie est faite

Du temps des uns
Et du temps des autres
Le tien, le mien
Peut devenir nôtre

Le temps, le temps, le temps
