For The Good Times
Jim Nabors Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

A time for us some day there'll be
When chains are torn by courage born
Of a love that's free
A time when dreams so long denied
Can flourish as we unveil
The love we now must hide

A time for us at last to see
A life worthwhile for you and me
And with our love
Through tears and thorns
We will endure as we pass
Surely through every storm

A time for us someday there'll be
A new world
A world of shining hope
For you and me...

A time for us at last to see
A life worthwhile for you and me
And with our love
Through tears and thorns
We will endure as we pass
Surely through every storm

A time for us someday there'll be
A new world




A world of shining hope
For you and me...
