First song since that short-hair guy returned to the band, opening track of the masterpiece called Brave New World and Adrian Smith did his magic again with an absolutely stunning opening riff, leading straight to a totally album opener hit. The Wicker Man, based on the self-titled movie (not to be confused with Bruce's solo career one) became one the fans favorite songs during gigs. Dean Karr did a wonderful job, creating probably their best up to date official video clip! The promotional radio release of the song features extra vocals in the chorus, not present in any other versions. Sing along, jump high and scream for the Wicker Man!
Lyrics:
Hand of fate is moving and the finger points to you
He knocks you to your feet and so what are you gonna do
Your tongue has frozen now you've got something to say
The piper at the gates of dawn is calling you his way
You watch the world exploding every single night
Dancing in the sun a newborn in the light
Say goodbye to gravity and say goodbye to death
Hello to eternity and live for every breath
Your time will come, your time will come
Your time will come, your time will come
The ferryman wants his money you ain't going to give it back
He can push his own boat as you set up off the track
Nothing you can contemplate will ever be the same
Every second is a new spark, sets the universe aflame
You watch the world exploding every single night
Dancing in the sun a newborn in the light
Brothers and their fathers joining hands and make a chain
The shadow of the Wicker Man is rising up again
Your time will come, your time will come
Your time will come, your time will come
(Solo)
Your time will come, your time will come
Your time will come, your time will come
Your time will come, your time will come
Your time will come, your time will come
