"The Time Comes" by Nina Gordon is a song about reflection, gratitude, and the passage of time. The lyrics describe the narrator waiting for a new day to bring change in their life. They look up to the sky and look back on their entire life, feeling grateful for a past love who was once a significant part of their life. The song acknowledges the temporal nature of time and how it can be both fleeting and transient. The chorus suggests that time comes and goes, and eventually fades away. The lyrics urge not to try and interpret or dwell on the silence or the past but rather, learn to be patient and accept the flow of time. Overall, the song expresses a bittersweet sentiment with a sense of acceptance, and the understanding that time can bring both joy and pain. It emphasizes the importance of appreciating the moments and people in our lives while looking ahead to new beginnings.
