What is Time?

I discovered this song from So You Think You Can Dance Season 3, with Lacey and Neil dancing a contemporary piece by Mia Michaels. It is so incredibly beautiful and it’s one of the most moving pieces I have ever seen on stage. It made me cry too. The mood was perfect, the choreography was kept simple, and the song is incredible. They really just performed it like they were in another world altogether. Have a look first at the dance. Now have a thought on the lyrics of the song. The song is called Time by Billy Porter. It’s a beautiful beautiful song. I can’t get over it right not. It’s so incredibly touching….I need a moment. I can’t express enough what is going through my head, but it’s just swooning with emotions…sigh..

What is time? Is it the autumn leaves that change? Or the snow that floats from the sky

What is Time? Is it the air we breathe? Or the wings that teach The new born bird to fly

Who can tell? I don’t know Will we change? Will we grow?

What is time? Is it eternity In heaven Or just a hope for peace on earth

Where’s the time Gone in a blink of an eye But with every blink a birth

We live We learn We love In time We give We urn We grow

In time

Time for change Its time to care It’s not too late Don’t despair Reach inside your heart

To find the joy and love To share with all mankind For all we know

All we have Is time
