Yes - "Time and a Word"

"Time and a Word" is a song by British progressive rock Yes from their second album of the same name, released in 1970. The song was written by Jon Anderson together with DavidFoster (a former bandmate in The Warriors). Foster also played acoustic guita

Time and a Word was the last Yes album to feature the group's original line-up, as Peter Banks was fired before the album's release.

Jon Anderson's decision to use a live orchestra on most of the album's songs (as he reported in the Yesyears video) put him very much at odds with Peter Banks. Tensions within the band increased, and just after the album's recording was completed in early 1970, Banks was asked to leave. Steve Howe would join the line-up that March, replacing Banks.
