Why would I stop loving you
A hundred years from now?
It's only time
It's only time
What could stop this beating heart
Once it's made a vow?
It's only time
It's only time
If rain won't change your mind
Let it fall
The rain won't change my heart
At all
Lock this chain
Around my hand
Throw away the key
It's only time
It's only time
Years falling
Like grains of sand
Mean nothing to me
It's only time
It's only time
If snow won't change your mind
Let it fall
The snow won't change my heart
Not at all
(I'll walk your lands)
I'll walk your lands
(And swim your sea)
And swim your sea
Marry me
Marry me
(Then in your hands)
Then in your hands
(I will be free)
I will be free
Marry me
Marry me
Why would I stop loving you
A hundred years from now?
