This was when the whole world measured time This is when the light would turn around This is where the past would come undone and the spinning earth will mark a new beginning Let’s go back in time, to when it all began To the breaking of new dawns Where moments bright with fire, would light the chanting song Where pagans worshipped sun, and danced among the trees Wore strange masks of covered straw, and blessed cold ash with awe Wreaths hung upon the door against all spirit’s, dire and when the winter’s grasp let go, the sun reversed the pyre This was when the whole world measured time This is when the light would turn around So that spring arrives, and seeds will sprout and grow Oh, radiant sun, stretch the day, shorten night Return earth’s darkness into light This is where the light will turn around And this was where the past has comes undone.
