Just In Time - Chris De Burgh

Just in time i heard the cry

And looking up i saw the snowbirds wheeling in the sky;

They said, «we are the last ones left»

And so i brought them in, i gave them comfort, gave them rest

Just in time, to live another day

Just in time, oh they’ll live another day;

Just in time i read the book

Such a revelation, we must give back what we took

Or the earth will roar like a wounded beast

The mountains will come crashing from the valleys to the sea

Just in time, oh don’t throw it all away

Just in time, don’t throw it all away…

«who will save this world of mine

Will you save it just in time?»

Just in time, i saw the dawn

Watched the sun arising on a field of golden corn

And through the mist, a million sang

Friends of the earth, calling out to every man

Just in time, oh don’t throw it all away, no, no, no

Just in time, oh we’ll live another day…

Ooh, how can i tell you how close we have come

That the end of our world has already begun

There are so many things we will not see again

Every day there’s another one dying away…

Calling for help

Help from your hand

Hand coming down

Down to the world;

World it is time

Time for us all

And all that is life

To be living together before everything slips away
