A Time In The Day

There’s a time in the day
When the airlines are not hissing
The machines are almost silent
The hand tools all lie still
There’s a time in the day
That working people treasure
There’s a time, a precious time, in every day

There’s a time in the day
We can sit and take it easy
We can watch the rain clouds forming
Are movements are our own
There’s a time in the day
When we warm to those around us
There’s a time, a precious time, in every day

There’s a time in the day
When we wonder at the meaning
We laugh at things together
And the hope inside us rings
There’s a time in the day
We remember we are human
There’s a time, a precious time, in every day

And there’s a time in the day
When the wind blows in our favour
We see the world more clearly
And we dream of things to come
There’s a time in the day
That we wish would last forever
There’s a time, a precious time, in every day
