Time, flowing like a river
Time, beckoning me
Who knows when we shall meet again
If ever
But time
Keeps flowing like a river
To the sea
Goodbye my love,
Maybe for forever
Goodbye my love,
The tide waits for me
Who knows when we shall meet again
If ever
But time
Keeps flowing like a river (on and on)
To the sea, to the sea
Till it's gone forever
Gone forever
Gone forevermore
Goodbye my friends (goodbye my love)
Maybe forever
Goodbye my friends (who knows when we shall meet again)
The stars wait for me
Who knows where we shall meet again
If ever
But time
Keeps flowing like a river (on and on)
To the sea, to the sea
Till it's gone forever
Gone forever
Gone forevermore
Forevermore
Forevermore
Forevermore
Hmmm.. Song hits hard. Almost too hard. I'm 65 and almost everybody I've ever known closely or personally is deceased. My family, friends all gone. Now I'm sick and will be gone before much longer. My beloved cat Bear is even ill. Life is unfair as hell. Sorry for spewing my personal shit. Song just opened me up. PEACE
It also affects me a lot.
I hope you are doing well. Sending good vibes your way!!!;-)

@@grahammaguire404 what a beautiful message! Your words are very inspiring.
@@grahammaguire404 you must touch a lot of people's hearts your words are comforting God bless you
I had the biggest crush on a girl named Jenny since I was in the 6th grade in 1981. She was a year older than me and never knew I liked her. I was always afraid to tell her. I would see her and always wanted to tell her but never did. Finally, in my junior year in high school (her senior year) at a school dance, the last one of the year, one of the last few songs of the night, this song came on. I spotted her across the room and said to myself, “It’s now or never.” I summoned up all the courage I had and went over to her and asked her to dance. She said, “Absolutely!” We strode over to the dance floor and started slow dancing. I couldn’t believe it was actually happening. She was tired from dancing all night and just laid her head on my shoulder as we danced. Time seemed to stand still as I couldn’t believe the girl of my dreams was here and dancing with me so close. Then before I knew it, the song ended. She hugged me and went back to her friends and I went back to mine and sat back and soaked it all in. She graduated and I never got to tell her how I felt and never saw her agian. But for one moment in time, I had the girls of my dreams in my arms for five minutes and eleven seconds. I often think about her. A few years ago, I sent her a friend request on FB and she accepted. I check in on her FB every now and then. I wonder if she even remembers the dance, probably not, but I will remember it for a lifetime and that’s okay.
Sweet brother…sweet
Now she knows it. 😍
Yeah man, you really loved her !!!! Thank you for sharing !!!! I hope someday you get news about her and it is never too late !!!!
@@jullenpatriarca4424 I doubt it, but thanks.
Awwuuuun, so cute!
I still listen to Alan Parson , I am 65. Good music lasts for ever.
Forevermore
Dónde están los latinos que les gusta este hermoso tema
🤟
We were all young when this song came out..We had no idea how fast time would go by.It's a beautiful ride...just wish it lasted longer
Oh my that’s so very sad, at least 5 guys from my HS class of ‘77 passed last month. One of them was a great kisser~sweetheart we sat together on a football bus for an out of town game, a major crush of mine😿
Plenty Time left 👍 Enjoy it. Yeehaa
@@philthycat1408 How do you know ? Lol
I was on the verge of graduating grammar school. I vaguely recall this song on the radio as a young teen.. Wow that time is yesteryear now. The Alan Parsons Project had cool songs.
What a song! A reflection about the time!
I lost my dad last aug 3rd . Listening to this song made me realize how life goes fast and noone is immortal. Live your life like it is your last day.and tell your loveones how much you love them.
❤
🙏
My dad told me his dad taught him "Live every day like it's your last and every moment like it's your first".
❤️💕❤️ I send you a big hug ❤️
Hope you are doing better now.
Hearing this song after 40 years, and in a new context. My heart is broken by current events and I cannot stop crying.
same. I named my cat Jamie
Seems like the whole world has gone crazy, doesn't it?
I wish you peace
♥️♥️♥️
Fully understand everything you've posted.
This will be playing at my funeral. The end.
This song will stand the test of time.Its a song that punches you in the gut, and makes you sit down and be humbled.He is a brilliant artist.
May 1981, when this song was all over the radio.
I graduated that month from HS. I had 2 weeks until I left home for good when I left to go in active duty with the armed forces. I had made that decision months prior.
It was my time to serve, my mother knew this as two of her other sons had previously served as did her husband during WWII.
I was her last born. This song brings back the pain of me catching my poor mother crying over my imminent departure. While the excitement of what lay ahead for me was thrilling, the pain of seeing my mother so sad just killed me. But I knew she knew that this was part of life.
She died 13 years later while I was deployed in the Persian gulf while still in the service. Part of me died then as I wasn’t able to be there when she left us.
The farewell in this song is soooo haunting and hits soooo hard. But that’s life. Makes me appreciate the fact that I had such a wonderful, nurturing, caring and loving mother.
Thank you for your service seems so trite, but my heart goes out to you in a much more profound way. . I have a feeling we will all have the most loving escorts as they take us by the hand at our time. God bless you.
I'm mother of 4 boys , 19 , 13, 12 , 11 y old .. your comment made me cry . She also I'm sure , wherever she is now with God , knows she has an amazing son.
Beautful story !!
Rj Brasil
Feliz Natal !!
Thanks for sharing.Its always touching when people share their emotions for these beautiful songs
Not a Veteran but my Dad was a WWII Veteran lost to
Massive heart ❤️ attack 1983 at only age 60’
Same when I hear this song think of him andmany in my Family who served my draft number never came up
For Vietnam 🇻🇳
Other thoughts of this song is those love past meant world to me and time lead us down separate ways how I miss them but especially my My Dad
Beautiful song!!!❤
Listing and Crying forever, remember my parents...😢😢
Beautiful song, beautiful man…
Esta cancion la pidio mi esposo tenia cancer terminal cuando ya estaba en el hospital a los 5 dias murio te amo mi amor siempre estaras en mi corazon 😢😢😢❤❤❤❤❤
One of the most beautiful song of all time... it brings tears in my eyes... fabulous.
me too!!!
🖤🎵🌹me too
Me also!
Me too, after all these years!!
Same here. My father passed away in 2017 and this tune also brings tears to my eyes. Absolutely beautiful song.
P.J. Olsson brought so much to the band. Mention his name to anyone. Most would not know who the hell is... But Alan Parsons is a genius...
This version absolutely blows me away.
I’m crying over and over to this song as my best friend of 35 years passed unexpectedly the other day
wow 35yrs friendship....how lucky were both of you
I am so in love with PJ Olsson, he is sooo young here but he still has that same voice. His voice is like a warm soft blanket that I want to cuddle up in, and he can join me :)
My parents used to play the Alan Parsons project music all the time when I was a kid. I just happened upon this song today whilst on Spotify and it reduced me to tears. I'm in Australia and apart from most of my family. At this moment I feel I'll never see my loved ones again. These words and this hauntingly beautiful music hit me hard.
Amiga desejo a vc saúde e paz.Força aqui um amigo do Brasil apaixonado por este som.Curtindo em meios a tempestades.vou te procurar no face.Tenho a música por um bálsamo da alma.fique em paz tudo vai dar certo.
Sometimes it takes the power of music to realise our true feelings.
Be positive. You parents gave you a gift for the rest of your life. Alan Parsons Project and that's how they speak to you. Embrace. Love......
It gives me goosebumps, but in a good way. Does that make any sense?
The single greatest goodbye/wake/funeral song ever written. Goodbye dad. Goodbye mom. Goodbye to those I will leave behind.
Que hermoso es escuchar esta canción 42 años después , mi alma se llena de bellos recuerdos de mi niñez.
His name is Paul Joseph Olsson.
So good singer.
We all meet up there.....
I loved this song when I was younger but now that I am a senior & have lost so many people in my life, it takes on a whole new meaning. Beautiful & haunting (and so true).
No my dear, it is not good bye forever. We will assuredly one day be reunited with every single person we have ever loved as this is the way of God, and God is love everlasting, bank on it. Be blessed!
Well said.
I was a freshman in high school when this classic came out.
One of the best songs ever written,chords are a masterpiece.
This must be one of the most gut-wrenching, haunting songs I have ever heard. But it's strangely beautiful and peaceful at the same time.
@April Callohan It's up to us to take in knowledge. There WILL be an earthly resurrection. See an interview with Rocky Nash. Subject is hope for the future. Why these things are going on. An interview with Robert Hendriks III. A message to many higher position authorities around the world. Many are appreciative of the letters that are sent. It is the world wide preaching and teaching work that we are doing.
We're living in heavily "critical times, hard to deal with." Key Words: Robert Hendriks III - Rocky Nash Interview-Contacting Government Officials and Businesses With a Message of Hope.
@April Callohan Thank you. Your comment was much appreciated. Good thoughts are going your way. We just have to hang in there. 🧡🧡
What I wanted to say..
You hit that one right on the head.
Si yo también pienso como Ud pero están cierta y verdadera todo lo que dice Saludos desde Santiago de Chile
Love this song,fantastic album APP,woops! time to wake up and go to work.😔
what a masterpiece. a beautiful song that reflects your inner soul. listening 2023 🎼🎵🎶🎧
They don’t make music like that anymore. Incredible, listen when he is older it sounds even better with his mature beautiful voice.
You nailed it, couldn't have said it better !!
Yeah I just like ELO in 1981 l was in like 13 I wish I did things so much differently in the couple of years ahead cuz I didn't and today I got 2 deal with what I f***** up I'm not happy about it that's all
We're all dead... we just know it yet.... thank you for existing with me... GOD BLESS YOU ALL PRAY
This song has always moved me emotionally perhaps even more now. I feel our simple pleasures & freedoms have gone forever with this stay home, face covering, social distancing, hand sanitizing, global economy destroying state of emerg virus that doesn't live up to a epidemic of a pandemic. Gone maybe forever, gone forever! gone forevermore, forevermore. Good bye normal. even the melody draws you in.Wake up world! Before it's too late!
Rob Stanley, We are rounding the curve. We must continue following the CDC Guidelines. To not follow those instructions is ushering in the "forevermore"! as our countries fate. Prayer changes things. Blessings to all who ingest and appreciate this song and the author of this post.
Our race has become more and more "socially distanced" since the advent of the internet and technological control of the masses, the total dependence of our race on this technology to know how to "relate" and "socialize" with others. This is not the same race of humans we knew prior to the social media brainwash, who could relate and interact directly and personally before. This was taking place waaaay before any "pandemic" was even thought of. Hence, to confirm what I just stated, people need have term or "label" given/told to them to identify and pinpoint when something started changing or "regressing", because they live in a constant state of distraction (online life) to have any "awareness" themselves of what is happening and when. See what I mean?
It's too late.
It doesn't even matter who the lead singer is, just what an honor it is to be able to sing such a beautiful song!
We are all born in the box . Enjoy everyday with your family and friends as much as you can ! The man who wrote this song was very talented and he will be missed . He passed in 2009 ! 😌
Beautiful song that was marvelously interpreted by this vocalist.
If you said you’ve never shed a tear listing to this amazing song…you’re lying
OMG PJ's voice is absolutely divine
Beautiful song, beautiful voice.
Hermosa canción, más considerando que es en vivo, verdaderos músicos 👏👏👏 👑😎🤠🥰😇
Ever since my dad died this song has given me peace about his passing.
Hi. My dad died when I was a kid. I was Daddy's little girl. He was my encourager. My rock. The rug was pulled out from under me when he died. I'm 58 now and it still hurts, although not as bad. It changed the whole trajectory of my life. When I hear the Streisand song "The Way We Were", I lose it. I'm sorry for your loss. Take care. Thanks for reading.
I usually don’t like live songs better than the original release. But I think this might be one of those exceptions. It might be the best version of all. Great performance.
ONE OF THE GREATEST VOCAL PERFORMENCES I EVER HEARD !!! TEAR JERKIN SHIT!! A+++++++++
😆😆😆
Love PJ Olsson, amazing singer!
I love this song.
This is one of the few songs that takes me back to the 80's. Wonderful voice.
Allerliefste Boy,,,,1981_2023......altijd in mijn❤....
The lyrics of this song can be changed a little to make it a Positive & more happy one -
Time, flowing like a river
Time, beckoning me
I knows that
We shall meet again, in Heaven
But time keeps flowing
Like a river to the sea
Goodbye my love
I know its not forever
Goodbye my love
God waits for me
I knows that
We shall meet again, for sure
But time keeps flowing
Like a river (on and on)
To the sea, to the sea
'Til it's gone forever
Gone forever
Gone forevermore
Goodbye my friend
(Goodbye my love)
I know its not forever
Goodbye my friend
(I knows that
We shall meet again)
The stars wait for me
I knows that
We shall meet again, for sure
But time keeps flowing
Like a river (on and on)
To the sea, to the sea
'Til it's gone forever
Gone forever
Gone forever
Gone forever now
Forevermore, forevermore
A beautiful song. One in a billion.
1981!! Music does not get any better. It changed. That’s all. This touches every soul no matter when you hear it! Sooooo good.

😉✌🎸🎼🇧🇷
Quote from the APP website :
" Eric Woolfson was the main songwriter and lyricist for the APP writing 95% of the music and 100% of the lyrics. He also sang lead vocal on many of the APP’s greatest hits including ‘Eye in the Sky’, ‘Time’ and ‘Don’t Answer Me’. He played keyboards on practically every APP track recorded. He was also the manager of the APP and handled all the business side. It was his decision to call it ‘The Alan Parsons Project’ - a choice he often described as both the best and worst in his career. The best because he got to enjoy the success of his work without any of the fame. The worst in that generally no one outside the music industry had a clue who he was! "
Absolutely incredibly beautiful song! P.J. Olsson’s voice accentuates the beauty all the more!
I agree that this song is just incredible. But this is the original singer, Eric Woolfson. PJ Olsson, tne 'new' singer, does actually look and sound like him though. Quite extraordinary.
@@Konuku I don't think this is 1981. PJ was born in 1972 and that is him. Help a fan of APP out.
@@toddmurphy664 Yeah...I'm confused. If you look up Eric Woolfsen, he doesn't look anything like this PJ, but if this is '81, then he was nine.
@@toddmurphy664 This live is from Madrid 2004

Bravo!! PJ shows genuine emotion and really connects with the audience. His vocal range, sound, and stamina are amazing.
Totally agree. PJ is an extraordinary musician. I love his voice!!!
And he's a hot blonde glass of sexy
This song really seems personal for him, I know it is for me. Amazing voice, music and heart!!
he's amazing yes! do you know his full name?
Yes it's pj olsen and he is amazing ❤😊
Some songs just are….perfect. Close your eyes, lean back and think back….there you go….I can see you smiling…..
Linda música
It was in my 16th year of life when I first was exposed to this song. At that time, everything was so close and loss was basically an unknown concept outside of a high school breakup. As I approach my 60th year, my concept of time and loss has been greatly expanded. The words spoke to me as a young man, learning how to live. It still speaks to me now, but the meaning and depth has become more profound.
I can’t stop replaying this. Pj olsson’s voice is hauntingly beautiful
Unless he's totally changed his appearance...this is not PJ...😮
Cara , ouvi essa música umas cem vezes essa semana. Tem uma mensagem linda por trás da letra.
Ahhhh so Gorgeous, just lost my oldest sibling unexpectedly (1st of 4 kids to die), he was 7yrs older than me~the baby, & my protector growing up, song hits much harder now 😿.
The Alan Parsons Project is one of the greatest bands ever
Great song I remember from my graduation night at Disney world in Florida in 1984
Get off my lawn, damn youngster! ;)
Essa música é belíssima, nostalgica, profunda. Sabia que era dia anos 80 mas, pensei que fosse de 86, 87. Lá se vão 42, quase 43 anos de seu lançamento e ela continua perfeita.
This song is everything to me.
I played it non-stop when I was young. And I recently played it at my mom's funeral. It's really helped me thank you Alan Parsons project..
Bom dia que música maravilhosa , poderia me dizer o nome desde vocalista ? Obg
It’s hard for me to listen to this song without thinking of my Mom who passed away 3 years ago.
@@erlaniabraulino9080 P.J.Olsson
Wow... I guess this is the first time that I like more the live version, than the studio's one... What a voice, I love this music since I was a child... Really special.
I listen to this over and over since my brother died in July 2020. But today is January 16, 2021 and I am listening to this song for the eighth time since this morning.❤️🙏 This song makes me feel at peace and loved. May we all feel at peace and feel loved and feel like we are all holding each other on this planet today in huge hugs and harmony. Thank you so much for this video because it’s one of my favorites. Lots of love to you and your channel and all your subs❤️
❤❤🙏I feel the same way. Sorry for your loss.
I lost my best friend (more like a brother) about a month… and it has been so tough on me and yes I have searched for this song I finally founded it….. yes I gives me some kind of peace and loved :)
Irmão compartilho com voçê sua dor.A música nos coloca em sintonia universal com boas vibrações.Desejo paz e saúde a todos do canal.Parabéns por este clássico.Curto esta maravilha desde os 17 anos.Hoje aos 55 está aí.um abraço.
Love you dude. All the best to you and your family. May his memory be a blessing.
sending a gentle loving hug your way
¡Que gran grupo! Tuve la suerte de que soy de Madrid(España) y los vi en directo! Fue en la Plaza Mayor.
Te envidio. Desde Cáceres
man what i would give to be able to sing like that-very powerful
Time Foreverrrrrrrrr........
All these years later and this song still hits me like a dagger in the heart all over again and it's like being transported in a time machine to July 3rd, 1981....wow!!! I was sooooooo young and he wasn't lol....and it was as if they wrote every. single. word. of this song, that summer, just for lil 'ol me and my poor, young, impressionable, naive VERY innocent heart that was shattered into a million pieces, unintentionally...sort of... by my first and absolute worst crush on a dreamy super star member of the Canadian Equestrian team. All the girls at the horse shows had a crush on him but I caught his eye...lucky me!! lol To a young rider, he might as well have been the lead singer of a boy band!! lol I really didn't think I would survive the aftermath of our meeting and parting and the thought of our Good Bye being forever sent me into fits of hysterical sobs!! I listened to this song 20 times a day at least... sobbing my heart out, watching him on TV winning Grand Prix after Grand Prix like the awesome stud that he was... saving every news paper clippings and magazine articles like a psycho.... praying we'd see each other again....before it was GOOOOONE FOREVER...GOOOOOOONE FOREVER....GONE FOREVERRRRRRRRRR..
That poor guy nearly had a heart attack when we finally met and he found out how old I was!! LOL Yep, I was definitely 13 going on 30!! And nope, my parents never knew that whole story!! But I must say he was such a total gentleman, or terrified of going to prison!! lol And after all the shameless flirting he did, he even had a photographer secretly follow me around the horse-shows taking countless pictures like any good stalker/pedophile would lol... But I thought all that stalking meant that he would LOVE ME FOREVERRRR!! hahaha I had a lot to learn about love and stalkers! ha ha But even after all this TIME, I hear this song ( #10 by now) and it still brings me right back to those tears, the angst, the yearning, the dreaming ...for YEARS!!
And no, we never saw each other again. So.... it really was gone forever as the song warned..... my worst fear back then. He's probably old and creepy looking now!! lol ML if you're out there, you old perv, you certainly left your 'mark' on a young, impressionable equestrian 100 years ago!! If he behaved that way today he'd probably get arrested!! lol Thank GOD he had the common sense just to fill my head with silly romantic notions and then swiftly jumped on his horse Damuraz and rode off into the sunset and refrained from taking advantage of a very young, naive, clueless, love-sick goof ball. Ahhh to be young and obsessed!! So, glad I grew up and lost all faith is that silly thing we call LOVE!! Life is much 'calmer' now!! Great song though!!! Thank you for keeping my tear-ducts well lubricated in my youth!!
Unbelievable vocal
Essa música me traz recordações angustiantes, me remete aos meu tempos de criança.... Foi uma época linda..... Minha casa com quintal enorme e uma bela mangueira dando sombra no quintal..... E essa música tocando várias vezes ao dia, fazendo um estouro de sucesso... Daki do Rio de Janeiro, Nova Iguaçu bairro de Comendador Soares... 🇧🇷 Brasil.... Mas alguém ouvindo em 2021?
Amigo você retratou minha infância em Nilópolis, essa música é a música que mais me remete a infância, hoje sou músico e toco no show "Eye in the sky" , mas "Time" é a viagem no tempo imediata.
Nossa que coisa né? EU sou do Rio de Janeiro tbm . Minhas irmães escutavam esta musica dentre outras dos anos 70 e 80 . Pois quando não sabia o inglês achava que todas estas musicas extrangeiras éram lindas , mas depois que tomei o conhecimento do idioma vejo que nem todas querem dizer coisas legais
,mas é assim , quando não sabemos o idioma , agente se envolve na magia da melodia
Para mim também muito emocionante ouvi-la nessa versão ao vivo,marcou minha adolescência,nas madrugadas de programas românticos ouvia ela sempre!

@@heloinaribeirocapri7939 Conhecer a letra torna esta música ainda mais tocante e profunda.
eu sou dos anos 90, mas sou completamente apaixonada por essa música. Uma vez dormi com o fone tocando música e do nada começou a tocar essa música, e eu fui pesquisar, pesquisei letra e tudo. Sou muito apaixonada 😍
Lost my soul mate today. She died in my arms on fucking new years eve. I'll see you soon, goodbye my love.

Time flows like a river to the Sea bit Time changes and is so Unpredictable such a Gorgeous nd Favorite Song!!!!
Hermoso tema!!!!!!!❤
This song has affected me emotionally ever since hearing it in the back of my parents' car in '81 when I was all of 8 yrs old...even then, it sounded and made me feel like our very existence was a temporary wave of life and spirit, eventually going back to the sea. Where it's goooone forever...gone forever?
you do realize that you are obviously a savant?
I was 6 and this reminds me of a vacation our family took, and it has always reminded me of my dad. He passed away in 2011, but it's as if I realized his mortality hearing it when I was that age, driving through the Rocky Mountains.
One of the most beautiful song of 80's
I love this song
just beautiful, I could listen to this all day
Essa música atinge a perfeição!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Pode crê...linda musica
Me encanta Alan Parsons
WOW a young PJ Olsen, he was great then, and still fantastic now....sigh.
