Never mind, found the answer on another forum. It’s “Time Is” by It’s a Beautiful Day. Funny, I don’t remember there being violin on this.

All right, this is a song a bar DJ used to play. I’d estimate its date around the early 70s, possibly late 60s. It was a long song and had that long, "jam rock" sound of the era (not quite prog rock). The singer sang lyrics that went of the format “I’m so ___ for those who ___,” or something like that. I think I once found out that it was actually based on a classic poem, but I seem to have lost that information.
Anyway, I originally thought this was an early Deep Purple song because I know they did stuff like this back then and the singer sounds like Rod Evans. But I haven’t heard any early DP songs that match this one and it’s the main keyboard on it is an acoustic piano, not an organ.
