Story Behind The Song
See long description of song. I think I've said enough.
Song Description
This early-Bowie-esque rock song is from our first full vinyl album titled "Thunder On The Tundra". This song was written, lyrically speaking, from a stream of consciousness experience and the original lyric remained mostly intact. If my memory serves me

Lyrics
take time take time take time
I was looking for some photographs of when we were the ones
And all at once there was an element between us
And I?ve been thinking of how long I?ve still been here,
and how long you?ve been away,
and how I miss you precious
I remember how you ran off with your umbrella for a moment to yourself
and left me standing in the rain
And I remember how you turned a little moment into never again
and it hasn?t since been the same
Time is all history, yet we haven?t gone very far
Time is a mystery, and we?re no Scotland Yard
Time is not a waste if you take it thoughtfully
And space will have been the new frontier . . . in time
Now it?s funny how the tears slip into years when you?ve been so in love as I
And it?s miraculous how the world is full of wonder
But I came upon you walking in the rain (much like the day you ran away)
And your umbrella was our shelter from the thunder
It was not unlike my prophesy in dream
and every detail as it seemed
That you shared in your own vision
And my life has since been infinitely rich as we learn that life?s without a hitch
and share the fruit of superstition
And share the fruit of superstition
We took the time to share the fruit of superstition
