Lyrics:
There's some people that you believe in
And some people want you for more
And I won't deceive you
Just let me receive the same thing
We're both looking for

Time to face the real life
Time to open the door
Time to make decisions
It's time to even the score
Time to kill the sadness
Time just can't be denied
Time to make you wonder?
And time to cast it aside

Inside the garden of plenty
Is a price that we'll all have to pay
There is a race with no colour
Now I want you to hear what I say
Won't you bring me some water
And I will give you my blood
But you won't give me your time
Now have I been misunderstood?

Time to catch your spirit
Time to find who you love
Time to find a new beginning
Time will fall from above
Time outside of the mirror
Time to break away
Cos time is the forgiver
And time will show you the way
Oh yes it will
Time!

You know I have nothing planned
I want you to understand
Now won't you just let it be?
Cos time heals your memory

Time is the healer
Time, time, time is the healer
Time to catch the real life

Time is the healer

Always one of my favorite Iommi riffs. Fuckin monster.

I heard Glenn’s interview where he said he and Tony were angry because basically it’s home demo and it got leaked and released. Man, come on! It’s gold! It’s GOLD!!!!

This is one of tonys heaviest riffs ever, and one of huges best vocal performances ever just an insanely perfection song....this is heavy doomy blusey metal at its finest...

Metal isn't drum machine percussion, it isn't screamo vocals, and it isn't face tattoos or lip rings.
It's a raw riff, bleeding vocals, and horns in the air. This is Metal. \m/

[DrewPDrawzz]

Grouse vocal by Glenn, superb METAL by Tony. I fuckin' LOVE IT!

[wkr]

was absolutely worth tracking this album down on ebay. very eclectic with both Iommi and Hughes doing what they do best on some tracks and challenging their respective comfort zones on others. this is my favorite track. hope they have the opportunity to collaborate again before they both hang it up.

[BryanBrotherton-dtyj]

They're like a sock in the shoe together together bad as hell

That little arpegiated bit near the middle is featured on 13 the Black Sabbath album. Can't remember which track though.

The rerecorded drums are not in time well enough i guess thats the best you can do though
