In the morning when you rise,
Do you open up your eyes, see what I see?
Do you see the same things ev`ry day?
Do you think of a way to start the day
Getting things in proportion?
Spread the news and help the world go `round.
Have you heard of a time that will help us get it together again?
Have you heard of the word that will stop us going wrong?
Well, the time is near the word you`ll hear
When you get things in perspective.
Spread the news and help the word go round.

There`s a time and the time is now and it`s right for me,
It`s right for me, and the time is now.
There`s a word and the word is love and it`s right for me,
It`s right for me, and the word is love.

Have you heard of a time that will help get it together again?

There`s a time and the time is now and it`s right for me,
It`s right for me, and the time is now.
There`s a word and the word is love and it`s right for me,
It`s right for me, and the word is love.

It`s right for me, and the time is now.
There`s a word and the word is love and it`s right for me,
It`s right for me, and the word is love.
