Only Time Will Tell
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I just needed someone,somebody to hold
When the bottle was empty
and the nights grew cold
In my hour of darkness
In my time of need
You were my angel of mercy
And helped me to believe
You touched my soul
When I was lonely
You held me up
when I couldn't fly
There's no words could explain
How I feel inside
And this I tell you
In a world full of anger
and times gone strange
You held me close
You held me close to you
Lay my head on your shoulder
I finally let it all out
It felt good for a moment
Not living in a shadow of doubt
But everybody needs a little something
Tu pull them through
I gave one for the other
And God know that the other was you
Chorus:
Now only time will tell
Only time will tell
If our love is scratched in sand
Or if it's etched in stone
Only time will tell
Only time will tell
If our love will stand
Or walk the road along
My angel of mercy
Pulled me through somehow
I just hope you know
I need you now
Solo
You're the one
That touched my very soul
The one who held on tight
God knows you never let go
Angel of mercy
It's time we closed the door
Put out the lights
And burn the fire
Burn the fire inside
Angel of mercy
You pulled me through
And this I tell to you
God know I'd tell it to you
