Our Time Lyrics by Malcolm Gets

Merrily We Roll Along (The New Cast Recording)

0

[FRANK]
Something is stirring
Shifting ground
It's just begun
Edges are blurring
All around
And yesterday is done

Feel the flow
Hear what’s happening
We're what's happening
Don’t you know?
We're the movers and we're the shapers
We're the names in tomorrow's papers
Up to us, man, to show 'em

It's our time, breathe it in
Worlds to change and worlds to win
Our turn coming through
Me and you, man
Me and you

Feel how it quivers
On the brink...

[CHARLEY, spoken]
What?

[FRANK]
Everything!
Gives you the shivers
Makes you think
There's so much stuff to sing!

And you and me
We’ll be singing it like the birds
Me with music and you the words
Tell ’em things they don't know!

[FRANK & CHARLEY]
Up to us, pal, to show ’em...

Our time, breathe it in:
Worlds to change and worlds to win
Our turn, we're what's new
Me and you, pal, me and you!

Feel the flow
Hear what's happening:
We’re what's happening!
Long ago
All we had was that funny feeling
Saying some day we'd send 'em reeling
Now it looks like we can!

[CHARLEY]
Some day just began...

[FRANK & CHARLEY]
It's our heads on the block
Give us room and start the clock
Our time coming through!
Me and you, pal
Me and you!
Me and you!

[CHARLEY, spoken]
There!

[FRANK, spoken]
There it is!

[MARY, spoken]
Don't say it for me. 

[CHARLEY, spoken]
You call it "Sputnik."

[FRANK, spoken]
You call it a miracle. 

[CHARLEY, spoken]
We're standing on the threshold of the future. 

[FRANK, spoken]
We gotta be the luckiest people who ever lived. After this moment, this moment that the three of us are sharing here together, nothing's ever gonna be the way it was ever again. You guys realize that now we're gonna be able to do anything? Anything we ever dreamed of? What a time to be starting out. What a time to be alive. 
(sung)
Something is stirring
Shifting ground
It's just begun

[CHARLEY]
Edges are blurring
All around
And yesterday is done

[MARY]
Feel the flow
Hear what's happening

[FRANK, CHARLEY & MARY]
We're what's happening
Don't you know?
We're the movers and we're the shapers
We're the names in tomorrow's papers
Up to us now to show 'em

It's our time, breathe it in
Worlds to change and worlds to win
Our turn coming through
Me and you, pal
Me and you!

Years from now
We'll remember and we'll come back
Buy the rooftop and hang a plaque:
"This is where we began
Being what we can"

[COMPANY]
It's our heads on the block
Give us room and start the clock
Our dream coming true
Me and you, pal
Me and you!
Me and you!
Me and you!
Me and you!
Me and you!
Me and you!
Me and you!
Me and you!
