Lyrics: Shirley Kaplan
IT’S TIME TO FEEL ALRIGHT NOW
Head out.
It’s time.
Pull back from shore.
Ready to sail
bright and early
before
stars are gone.
Start a new way
holding moments
of cities
and past days.
Lovers are loving
and
Birds and beasts
Are seen
dancing
With ease and grace
To music only they hear.
It’s time to feel alright now.
Start a new way.
Move quickly.
Here’s to the
life
of sailors
and dreamers
who live without fear
far from shore.
The moon stays the same.
Poets are singing
music is playing
Memories are passing.
The map shows new land.
It’s time to feel alright now.
Start a new way.
It’s time to feel alright now.
It’s time
time
It’s time to feel alright now.
Start a new way
new way
