Ruby glowing from your window
Like the years it fades
There’s a broken gold flamingo
Where the people prayed
Demanding now or never
That someone cares
Some standing all together
Some unaware

It’s the time to make your play
Take the rose today
It’s the time to have your say
Take the whole bouquet
Have no regrets and don’t keep hanging on
Now all your yesterdays are gone

Situation’s never ending
And the pages few
But it’s always worth defending
If the story’s true
Sleep gently, to discover
What’s in your heart
No vengeance, all together
That’s worlds apart

It’s the time to make your play
Take the rose today
It’s the time to have your say
Take the whole bouquet
Have no regrets and don’t keep hanging on
Now all your yesterdays are gone

There’s a quiet rhapsody
Ringing in your ears
And playing for eternity
Never disappears
Unexpected traveller
May be king of kings
While drowning in simplicity
Master of all things

It’s the time to make your play
Take the rose today
It’s the time to have your say
Take the whole bouquet
Have no regrets and don’t keep hanging on
Now all your yesterdays are gone

It’s the time to make your play
Take the rose today
It’s the time to have your say
Take the whole bouquet
Have no regrets and don’t keep hanging on
Now all your yesterdays are gone

Now all your yesterdays are gone
Now all your yesterdays are gone
