japonisme: turning

turning



To everything (turn, turn, turn)
There is a season
(turn, turn, turn)
And a time for every purpose, under heaven


To everything (turn, turn, turn)
There is a season
(turn, turn, turn)
And a time for every purpose, under heaven




A time to build up, a time to break down
A time to dance, a time to mourn
A time to cast away stones, a time to gather stones together


To everything (turn, turn, turn)
There is a season (turn, turn, turn)
And a time for every purpose, under heaven



A time of love, a time of hate
A time of war, a time of peace
A time you may embrace, a time to refrain from embracing









To everything (turn, turn, turn)
There is a season
(turn, turn, turn)
And a time for every purpose, under heaven









A time to gain, a time to lose
A time to rend, a time to sew
A time to love, a time to hate
A time for peace, I swear its not too late


The Byrds








Words adapted from the Bible,
Book of Ecclesiastes
