"The Time It Is Today"
(Russ Giguere)
Jim Yester, in the liner notes to the Japanese _From The Original Master
Tapes_ CD (Warner/Pioneer WPCP-3536):
Very complex and personal, an excellent work by Russell Giguere. At
times very pastoral, at times very angry, one man s plea for humanity to
"wake up".

Verse 1:
Sunrise, sunset
What you re born with is what you get
CaddD CaddD
Let your fear just pass away
CaddD
Then your love will fill your days
I know
Verse 2:
I need so little, yet so much
Child s sweet laughter, woman s touch
I can t say just what is real
All I know is what I feel
I know
Bridge:
(Ba-ba-ba...) The time it is today
And we must find our way
My heartbeat clearly states
The answer s not in hate
I once believed that love was but a dream
But now I know
That love s a flowing stream
They re lying, killing, they re pushing their rules
They tell me the prophets all were just fools
But I know different and I won t be used
It s they that are lost
It s they are confused
(They are confused)
(They are confused)
Verse 3:
Sunrise, sunset
What you re born with is what you get
All your world is all your fears
They don t change, but pass in years
[end cold]
I know
