Nelson Only Time Will Tell lyrics

Hello my friend, it sure has been awhile
I don't know where the time has gone
But I've really missed your smile

It's been too long
I got so much to say
That I don't know where to start
Ever since we went our separate ways

There's been a big hole in my heart
(But)
As I recall, it was you that said goodbye
Now you're asking me to give it one more try

Well, only time will tell
If you're gonna stand beside me through both heaven and hell
I wanna know that you're behind me
But only time will tell
If what we have together's gonna last forever more

And so my friend, I hope you understand
It's hard to put my trust in you
'Cause I'm afraid you'll leave again

I want to believe, that you've finally seen the light
That you've missed my love and you want to make it right

But only time will tell

If you're gonna stand beside me through both heaven and hell
I wanna know that you're behind me
But only time will tell
If what we have together's gonna last forever more

I got no way of knowing
What the future's gonna bring
So I'll just listen to my heart
'Cause it's never lied to me and what is meant to be

Only time will tell
If you're gonna stand beside me through both heaven and hell
I wanna know that you're behind me
But only time will tell
If what we have together's gonna last forever

Time will tell
Do you believe in me?
Time will tell
If we're gonna be together

Only time will tell
I want a love to last forever
Time will tell
Only time will tell
