Nick of Time art print by Carolyn Ferris

Artist’s Statement

I consider this print to be a giant oracle card that has many meanings which were inspired from the song.  Such as: the chains around the word dreams: follow your dreams, don’t ever let them slip away. The key to dreams kept safely under the pillow. The loud ticking clock (that sometimes pounds only in our hearts) to remember universal balance and our own important soul part within that knows we can change the path of a strange story- heart, moon, stars, and planets  (Saturn) depicted on clock face.

Viewing this may help trigger the great memories of conquering difficult issues. Also excellent to study when feeling in the depths of emotional pain and recollect those inner strengths and dreams. If relief isn’t immediate, it will  happen in the Nick of Time.

Of course, this special edition print may also be used simply as a colorful piece of bold art and a definite conversation piece! There are instructions at the bottom of the image on how to read  all the Nick of Time words in order; so, it  acts as a board game too.  Enjoy.

Lyrics

Nick of Time by Roger McNamee

In the nick of time
You will find your way
In the nick of time
A path from night to day

You’re feeling desperate, you feel you’re alone
Nowhere to turn for help, and nowhere to run

What do you see . . . when you lay awake at night?
Who do you really want to be?
Follow your dreams, don’t ever let them slip away
Good things happen in the nick of time

In the nick of time
You will find true love
In the nick of time
An angel from above

That desperate feeling moves in to stay
You feel a clock ticking, it won’t go away

What do you see . . . when you lay awake at night?
Who do you really want to be?
Follow your dreams, don’t ever let them slip away
Good things happen in the nick of time

In the nick of time
You will find me there
In the nick of time
Any time, any where

Your life is a drama, twisted and strange
But you are the author, and the story can change

What do you see . . . when you lay awake at night?
Who do you really want to be?
Follow your dreams, don’t ever let them slip away
Good things happen in the nick of time
