Time Can Only Tell (Redux)

Time can tell you you're fine

Play a trick on your mind

Spin you around while it runs a straight line

Time loves a good lie

Colder than ice

Cuts like a knife while it kisses you goodnight

If it's got its reasons

It keeps them to itself

Maybe it's a secret

Time can only tell

Time passes you by

If you blink twice

It won't give you a second try

Oh I been wondering why

It's so hard to hold onto, and what does it cost you?

If you want more when it don't want you

If it's got its reasons

It keeps them to itself

Maybe it's a secret

Time can only tell

Will it slow down?

Would it take me back?

If it turned around

Could I make it last?

I can't chase it down

The one way street

It's never gonna stop

Running out on me

If it's got its reasons

It keeps them to itself

Maybe that's the reason

For putting me through hell

Could it be a secret?

Time can only tell

Time can only tell
