Steven Manwaring - guitar
Lindsay Straw - video & audio
you came to me inside a dream
dressed all in gossamer string
you were crying on christmas eve
you’d seen the future and it was bleak
through your tears a prophecy
you sang a warning song of a doomed destiny
it’s happened all at once and not at all
for time is a circle moving at a crawl
and it’s only a matter of time
yeah, it’s only a matter of time
‘til the well runs dry
and the candle light dies
yeah, and it’s only a matter of time
flying cars child labor on mars
screens in a hand that’ll ruin a man
there’s the greedy ones making the rules
and the braiding of our lives
is hanging like a noose
your eyes are dry now but in your wake
you left a river of tears to make shift a lake
treading water now under the pine
and brace for the morning
to wake my troubled mind
and it’s only a matter of time
yeah, it’s only a matter of time
before the well runs dry
and the candle light dies
before the sun burns down
and the oceans all rise
before the ashes fall
and words lose their rhyme
yeah, it’s only a matter of time
