When the Time Came - Jason Didner (Lyric Video)
New single out on Bandcamp and all streaming services. https://jasondidnermusic.bandcamp.com...
This is the first single I've released that's co-written with my mom, Linda Didner. She wrote a poem as a sequel to my 2003 song "It's About Time."
I sang all vocal parts and played all instruments.
Lyrics:
I've broken a cycle
May it never return
It took long and hard looks
To finally learn
Now I know what it takes
To be peaceful and strong
To be happy and loving,
My whole life long
When the time came
I let my feelings be
When the time came
I set my spirit free
Extinguished the anger
And put down the blame
I did what it takes
When the time came
I've gone through some changes
They were worth the pain
I shouldered the heartache
But so much was gained
I journeyed so deeply
So deeply inside
I read that old screenplay
That played in my mind
When the time came
I let my feelings be
When the time came
I set my spirit free
Extinguished the anger
And put down the blame
I did what it takes
When the time came
Sure I was scared
of how I might change
Still nothing's more frightening
than staying the same
When the time came
I let my feelings be
When the time came
I set my spirit free
Extinguished the anger
And put down the blame
I did what it takes
When the time came
When the time came
And may I do it again
