(Slow, softly spoken words over Keyboards, Bass guitar, gently picked Lead and Drums)

CThree billion, Amone hundred Fand fifty Dfive million,
GNine hundred Fand seventy tAmhree thousand, Fsix hundred seconds.
CEight hundred Dand seventy Gsix million hours,
FOr thirty six thousand, five hundred days.
CAlmost as lDong as one of Gthose endless dark nights of Fthe soul,
FThose Emnights that Fnever Cend. (A century)
AmWhen you Fbelieve you'll Emnever see the Amsun rise again,
CWhen a Fsingle second Emfeels like a Amcentury. (A century)
