There was a time when it was perfect to be there by her side
A time when it was worth it to live someone else's life
A time when she would hold you as a lover and a friend
A time you thought would never end
There was a time when you felt wanted
You didn't feel afraid
A time when you weren't haunted by mistakes that you had made
A time when all you needed was to feel her warm embrance
A time - a different time and place
CHORUS
Time takes its toll
In time I guess you'll know
Why there came a time to let her go
There was a time when she was changing right there before your eyes
A time when she would blame you as she fell between the highs
A time when you felt hopeless; you just couldn't slow her down
When time wouldn't hang around
CHORUS
Time can be a healer. Time can make you see
And what once broke your heart becomes a fading memory
Time is all that's left then; the time that you both shared
Now it's time to start again
CHORUS
