Time Will Tell

I took the hard way back this time
Never knowin’ what I’d find
But always wonderin’ what I’d see
Is it you inside of me?

You thought you knew me all along
But with a word I proved you wrong
With a word, your silence fell
It was louder than my yell

And now everything falls louder than before

BUT ON ANOTHER DAY
I GUESS I’D ACT A DIFFERENT WAY
AND ALL THAT I CAN SAY IS I’M SORRY

TIME WILL ONLY TELL
I GUESS WE THOUGHT WE KNEW THAT WELL BUT
TIME’S A TEACHER NEVER CHOSEN

You left your longing at my door
No time for trying anymore
I’ve tried so hard, what can I do?
Is it me or is it you?

I couldn’t guess all the unknowns
You were the first place I called home
But this is different than before
A silence I cannot ignore

And as days grow longer, I’m no stronger

BUT ON ANOTHER DAY
I GUESS I’D ACT A DIFFERENT WAY
AND ALL THAT I CAN SAY IS I’M SORRY

TIME WILL ONLY TELL
I GUESS WE THOUGHT WE KNEW THAT WELL BUT
TIME’S A TEACHER NEVER CHOSEN

This life’s a different life than I thought it’d be
This world’s a different world than I’d hoped I’d see
This man’s a different man since our family turned to three
It isn’t what I thought, but maybe it’s just me
But on another day…

BUT ON ANOTHER DAY
I GUESS I’D ACT A DIFFERENT WAY
AND ALL THAT I CAN SAY IS I’M SORRY

TIME WILL ONLY TELL
I GUESS WE THOUGHT WE KNEW THAT WELL BUT
TIME’S A TEACHER NEVER CHOSEN
