In Time
Embracing Hope: Love Lost and Rediscovered
Lyrics
I was a fool
I made a mistake
And like a fool, I cannot hide my sorrow
Expressing sorrow and inability to conceal it
I was a fool
Reiteration of admitting a foolish action
I thought that you would share all my tomorrows
Mistaken belief that the person would share the future
Though I was wrong
Acknowledging the error in the belief
Believing you'd belong to me forever
Thought the person would be a lasting part of life
Now that you're gone
Expressing the pain of the person's absence
I hope I learn to live again in time
Hoping to recover and live again over time
In time, I may forget your smile
Anticipating the eventual fading of memories, starting with a smile
And in a while, I may forget I love you
Expecting to forget the love over time
In time, I may forget my tears
Hope to forget the pain and tears with time
And through the years, I may forget I need you
Over the years, aiming to forget the need for the person
In time, maybe there'll be a new love to love me
Envisioning a possibility of finding new love in the future
I can't go on belonging to the past
Recognizing the necessity to move on from the past
But I pray that one day in time
Praying for a future reconciliation and reunion
You'll come back and be mine
Expressing the desire for the person to return and be together
I love you
Reaffirming love for the person
I need you
Emphasizing the continued need for the person
In time, maybe there'll be a new love to love me
Reiterating the hope for a new love in the future
I can't go on belonging to the past
Acknowledging the impossibility of dwelling in the past
But I pray that one day in time
Maintaining hope for a future reunion through prayer
You'll come back and be mine
Repeating the desire for the person to come back
In time, maybe there'll be a new love to love me
Reiterating the hope for a new love in the future
I can't go on belonging to the past
Stressing the need to move on from the past
But I pray that one day in time
Continuing to pray for a future reconciliation
You'll come back and be mine
Expressing the hope for the person to return and be together
