Time Won't Tell
Unveiling Love's Silent Echoes
Lyrics
I can't believe that after all this time
I am surprised that even after a long period
You keep slipping back across my mind
You keep coming back to my thoughts
Did we maybe leave the love behind afraid of what we felt
Did we possibly abandon our love, fearing the emotions we experienced?
Other loves I've had have come and gone
I've had other loves that have come and gone
I don't know why, they just don't last too long
I don't understand why those loves didn't endure
There are questions that go on and go
There are lingering questions without answers
That time won't tell
Those questions persist, and time cannot provide answers
Time won't tell me how it might have been
Time cannot reveal how things could have been
And time won't make what's wrong alright
Time cannot fix what is wrong
It can only take me back again
It can only take me back in time
And re-run those memories in black and white
To relive those memories in black and white
I watch us kiss good-bye that day
I observe us saying goodbye on that day
Here's where you turn around and walk away
This is where you turn around and depart
Where were the words that would have made you stay
Where were the words that could have made you stay?
Well, time won't tell
Well, time cannot provide an answer
Time won't tell me how it might have been
Time cannot disclose how things might have been
And time won't make what's wrong alright
Time cannot rectify what is wrong
It can only take me back again
It can only take me back in time
And re-run those memories in black and white
To replay those memories in black and white
You never see the road you didn't take
You never see the paths not taken
You never feel the love you failed to make
You never feel the love you failed to create
But you never know might be the words to say
But you never know what words might have made a difference
And time won't tell
And time cannot provide that knowledge
Time won't tell
Time cannot reveal these answers
