This Day and Time

This Day and Time Was listening to Bernie and hearing songs being sung by Harry Belafonte. So sentimental his songs seemed to me When were heard what I wanted to be My Savior close and near from now on And did find His face in each new dawn. What about both Belafonte and Bernie In island of sun while going on a journey Taken to see new dawn and setting sun From time immemorial where it had begun. Long ago sang song that was to be his last Now each one of them are living in the past Had forgotten things that once were realistic Now dreaming about world that is idealistic. What was said in long ago bygone days They had been immersed with much praise Thought that they were divine and sublime And now must live in this era, day and time.
