[00:01.71]In the beginning
[00:04.77]There was the cold and the night
[00:09.02]Prophets and angels gave us the fire and the light
[00:17.36]Man was triumphant
[00:21.61]Armed with the faith and the will
[00:27.79]That even the darkest ages couldn't kill
[00:36.30]Too many kingdoms
[00:40.42]Too many flags on the field
[00:44.80]So many battles so many wounds to be healed
[00:53.10]Time is relentless
[00:57.41]Only true love perseveres
[01:04.16]It's been a long time and now I'm with you
[01:11.10]After two thousand years
[01:32.47]This is our moment
[01:36.60]Here at the crossroads of time
[01:41.04]We hope our children carry our dreams down the line
[01:49.04]They are the vintage
[01:53.28]What kind of life will they live
[01:59.29]Is this a curse or a blessing that we give
[02:07.29]Sometimes I wonder
[02:11.54]Why are we so blind to fate
[02:15.91]Without compassion there can be no end to hate
[02:24.08]No end to sorrow
[02:28.08]Caused by the same endless fears
[02:34.33]Why can't we learn from all we've been through
[02:41.14]After two thousand years
[03:02.09]There will be miracles
[03:06.21]After the last war is won
[03:10.58]Science and poetry rule in the new world to come
[03:18.38]Prophets and angels
[03:22.38]Gave us the power to see
[03:28.44]What an amazing future there will be
[03:36.63]And in the evening
[03:40.13]After the fire and the light
[03:44.94]One thing is certain: Nothing can hold back the light
[03:52.88]Time is relentless
[03:56.94]And as the past disappears
[04:03.07]We're on the verge of all things new
[04:10.75]We are two thousand years
