Time will say nothing but I told you so, |
|
Time only knows the price we have to pay; |
|
If I could tell you I would let you know. |
|
If we should weep when clowns put on their show, |
|
If we should stumble when musicians play, |
|
Time will say nothing but I told you so. |
|
There are no fortunes to be told, although, |
|
Because I love you more than I can say, |
|
If I could tell you I would let you know. |
|
The winds must come from somewhere when they blow, |
|
There must be reasons why the leaves decay; |
|
Time will say nothing but I told you so. |
|
Perhaps the roses really want to grow, |
|
The vision seriously intends to stay; |
|
If I could tell you I would let you know. |
|
Suppose the lions all get up and go, |
|
And all the brooks and soldiers run away; |
|
Will Time say nothing but I told you so? |
|
If I could tell you I would let you know. |
