Finally
Julie McKnight Kings of Tomorrow Lyrics

Time marches on never ending,
The unstoppable passage of time has no beginning or end.

Time keeps its own time,
Time progresses on its own, moving forward or backward according to its own rhythm.

Here we stand at beginning,
We find ourselves at the starting point of a journey, uncertain of what lies ahead.

And then goes passing us by,
Events rapidly move forward, leaving us little time to reflect on what has happened.

And I, I, I can dream for us all,
Despite the uncertainty of the future, the artist dares to dream of a better tomorrow for everyone.

I hope I'm in a better state,
The singer desires to be in a better emotional or mental condition when faced with difficult times in the present or future.

When here and now crumbles and falls
When the current situation falls apart and crumbles, as it inevitably will at some point.

And you, you, you who make worlds collide
The person who causes significant change is addressed here, as someone who can bring about unexpected consequences.

I knew you'd come knocking one day,
The artist anticipated someone significant appearing in their life.

Unannounced like a thief in the night.
The person arrives unexpectedly, like a thief in the night who robs without warning.

Where do we go from here,
What is the next step? What direction should we take?

Time ain't nothing but time,
Time is just time, it has neither a positive nor negative value on its own.

I now have no fear of my fears
The singer has conquered their fear of fear and is now unafraid to take risks.

And no more tears to cry,
The singer has reached a point of emotional stability and feels as if they have no more sadness left to express.

Tomorrow, tomorrow, tomorrow means nothing at all
The future is uncertain and has no real impact on the present moment.

If we don't hear the line,
If we don't listen and take action, we'll miss opportunities.

When today places its call, and morning, morning, morning
When the present moment demands our attention, we must rise and answer the call to action.

Won't ever be the same,
Things won't ever be exactly as they were before.

Now I won't make the same mistakes, time and time again
The singer has learned from past mistakes and won't repeat them endlessly.

So tell me how do you do
The artist greets the person they've been waiting for with awe and curiosity.

Finally I meet you
The long-awaited encounter has finally taken place.

You don't know what I've been through,
The person has no idea of the artist's struggles, pain, and hopes leading up to this moment.

Waiting and wondering about you
The singer has longed for this person for some time and contemplated what this encounter would be like.

I had a dream my trip would end at you,
The artist had a vision of finding their utopia, their destination, their chosen path reaching its end at this person.

And now I know paradise.
The singer has found their version of paradise in this person and in the fulfillment of their dreams and wishes.
