Second in time by Corman

Song SECOND IN TIME TO LISTEN Take a second, ( second) In time ( in time) To listen ( to listen) Open up your mind To the sounds around you Quiet now , hush just Listen (listening) listening [ verse] If I could roll back time in an instant I would capture its presence in a bottle Saving it for a time of need In a moment, I would stand still and listen Listening to all the sounds that surround me I've been consumed by everything in a passive state of mind A mind that is lost in materialistic substance The day to day deeds required to survive in a busy world My soul purpose of existence Made me become materialistic Always looking at the present and not at the past The past tells a story A story of regret, ( regret) Story of redemption, ( redemption) and praises of times spent With the one you love Happiness and sadness has touched my soul Bruises and scars within the boundaries of my mind All of them today are mending away Remembering, The love felt when your best friend sat right next to you Time to reflect upon the things I’ve done for others Leaving a gift of forgiveness And understanding Never, really seeing the true beautiful creation by God Stand still and listen ( listen) to the noise of silence An absolute calming effect of small quiet noises The quietness of a simple sound of a brook nearby Water rushing to not stand still The owl howling in the distance To see if I am really listening Just to let me know, he is high above looking outward The rumble of a squirrel in the forest Crackling of sticks and leaves as they move around carefree A calmness comes over me for an instant Smell the mist of the forest leaves it really feels good to be free Suddenly, my mind is in the present Here today, I sit and think Painting the picture of what I want to see In an instant it all fades away Today, take a breath to relax, feel the world in which we live Imagine what you may be able to see Take a second in time to stop and listen [ chorus] Take a second, ( second) In time ( in time) To listen ( to listen) Open up your mind To the sounds around you Quiet now , hush just Listen
