The Time Has Come is a song featured in the Pokémon the Series episode Pikachu's Goodbye. It is heard after Ash, thinking his Pikachu would be better off living with the wild herd of his own kind, decides to leave him with said herd. The song plays over a montage of clips from previous episodes (and also one from the Japanese intro sequence). In the end, however, Ash's Pikachu decides to return to him.
The full-length version of the song, performed by Marti Lebrow, appears as the seventh track on the album Pokémon 2.B.A. Master.
In Pokémon Live!, Ash sings the song when he thinks that Pikachu has run out on him (in actuality, Team Rocket has successfully stolen him for once).
Lyrics[]
- I close my eyes and I can see the day we met,
- Just one moment and I knew:
- You're my best friend, do anything for you.
- We've gone so far and done so much
- And I feel like we've always been together.
- Right by my side through thick and thin,
- You're the part of my life I'll always remember.
- The time has come,
- It's for the best, I know it.
- Who could have guessed that you and I -
- Somehow, someday, we'd have to say goodbye.
- You've helped me find the strength inside
- And the courage to make my dreams come true.
- How will I find another friend like you?
- Two of a kind, that's what we are,
- And it seems like we were always winning.
- But as our team is torn apart,
- I wish we could go back to the beginning.
- The time has come,
- It's for the best, I know it.
- Who could have guessed that you and I -
- Somehow, someway, we'd have to say goodbye.
- Somehow today, we have to say goodbye.
