TIME STANDS STILL

WORDS AND MUSIC BY - EDWARD S. NAWROCKI
TITLE & INSPIRATION - LLL DUCE

COPYRIGHT - 1992

HERE I AM ,
IN THE DARK,
IN THE STILL OF NIGHT
TIME STANDS STILL
AND THE EARTH GOES TO SLEEP

ALL ALONE, ON A HILL,
FACING EVERYWHERE
ON AN ISLAND
IN AN OCEAN OF TREES


I LOOK ABOVE
AND THE MYSTERIES OF MY LIFE
UNFOLD BEFORE ME AS THE
CLOUDS DANCE 'CROSS THE SKY
I REALISE
THAT I'VE WAISTED
WHAT I'VE WANTED FOR
AS TIME STANDS STILL
AND THE EARTH GOES TO SLEEP



I SHIFT THE SANDS,
OF TIME,
IN AN HOUR GLASS
AND SLOWLY SINK,
AS IT'S SIFTING AWAY

ALL ALONE ,
IN A WORLD
THAT IS MADE OF GLASS
TIME STANDS STILL
AND THE EARTH GOES TO SLEEP



I CROSS THE LINE
AND TIME
IS AHEAD OF ME
I CROSS IT BACK
AND YOU SAY I'M BEHIND
I WALK THE LINE
AND TIME WALKS ON EITHER SIDE
AND HERE I FIND
ALL THE TIME THAT I NEED


THERE IS NO TIME,

BUT THE TIME YOU ARE LIVING IN

THERE IS NO SPACE,

BUT THE SPACE YOU OCCUPY

FIND YOURSELF

AND YOU'LL FIND

WHAT YOU'RE LOOKING FOR

AS TIME STANDS STILL

AND THE EARTH GOES TO SLEEP


I LOOK ABOVE
AND THE MYSTERIES OF MY LIFE
UNFOLD BEFORE ME AS THE
CLOUDS DANCE 'CROSS THE SKY
I REALISE
THAT I'VE WAISTED
WHAT I'VE WANTED FOR
AS TIME STANDS STILL
AND THE EARTH GOES TO SLEEP



Author's Note

This song was originaly written in 1993
while I was still performing with the band
JUSTICE GREEDY .

As many of my songs,
this piece started out as an instrumental.
When LLL Duce heard it and commented
"Time Stands Still And The Earth Goes To Sleep"
I found the inspiration for the words.

Because Justice Greedy was
a Hard Rock Band at the time,
this song, which was a bit lighter and slower than our
performance material, did not get much exposure.
It is another one of my unrecorded favorites.
