Now is the time for all good men
To sow the seeds of love again.
Now is the time for all good men
To let themselves cry, now and then.
Now is the time for all good men
To cast their fears into the wind.
Now is the time for all good men.
To change the world they're loving in.
Keep a song in your heart and down in your feet
And a smile on your face for all that you meet.
Forget the taste of all your defeat.
And, when the music starts, Boy, get out of your seat.
Risk it all, for all that is dear.
Now is the time and the place is here.
We can't just resign to pain or to fear;
Nor should we laugh at every falling tear.
Remember, flowers still smell sweet
And to never let your heart retreat.
For, now is the time for all good men
To change the world we're living in.
