Deep Purple Before Time Began Lyrics

Before Time Began Lyrics

The daylight fades and the stars come out

But there's never much to talk about

Another day goes rushing by

And here we are just wondering why



We have to belong

With a sense of purpose

That's all we need

Without them we're worthless



Ah, we've come so far but then again

All we see is more of the same

It's getting crowded here, we agree no doubt

Oh dear brother, what's it all about?



Hey you, over there

Why don't you throw down your spear?

We all need some help right now

Now where are we going from here?



Way things are working out

Won't be too long before we have to move

Better start thinking about it

While there's still time to choose



Every day of my life I discover

Someone murdering my sisters and brothers

In the name of some god or another

What do you know?



Every day of my life I discover

Someone murdering my sisters and brothers

In the name of some god or another



For the first precious few, it's time to go

What might have been, you'll never know

All those bad ideas became the law

Oh yes, we've forgotten what we're looking for



All of you angels, it's time to gather your wings

Leave it all behind, you won't need any of those things

We're going on through the darkness, hand in hand

To step into the future, before time began



And for those who remain with your chosen gods

May your prayers be answered
