Only Time Will Tell
Bananarama Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Will I wake up from a dream? Oh, all my senses are colliding
Feelings running round inside me
Deep in the night, I hope I'm right
Or will our love drift away on the breeze?
Do we have a future or will love become a memory?
Only time will tell, only time will tell
Could this be my destiny when you're lying next to me?
Feel the rhythm of our love, oh may I never watch our love go
Disappearing into shadow
Deep in the night, I hope I'm right
Or will our love drift away on the breeze?
Do we have a future or will love become a memory?
Since the day we fell, we knew the story well
Only time will tell, only time will tell
Do we have a future or will love become a memory?
Since the day we fell, we knew the story well
Only time will tell, only time will tell
Oh, all my senses are colliding
Feelings running round inside me
Deep in the night, I hope I'm right
Or will our love drift away on the breeze?
Do we have a future or will love become a memory?
Since the day we fell, we knew the story well
Only time will tell, only time will tell
The lyrics to Bananarama's song "Only Time Will Tell" express a sense of uncertainty and anxiety about the future of a romantic relationship.

But they also acknowledge the possibility that their relationship may end, and become nothing more than a memory. In the end, the lyrics suggest that time alone can reveal the outcome of this romance, and that the singers can only wait and see what happens.
