Time Will Tell
Frankmusik Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

[Chorus]
I lost my girl and I lost my world
And I know I fell 'cause this is over
Only time will tell,
Cause I lost my girl and I lost my world
And I know I fell 'cause this is over
Over
I said things I shouldn't have said
But I know all feelings aren't dead
So "Forgive me" is all I can say
And maybe you might one day

I tripped us up and fell right over you
So how can I turn one back to two?
Or have I just left you too much too long
For me to right so many wrongs when

[Chorus]

I said things I never meant
Now I'm on my knees so just let me repeat
And I promise this time I'll be true, I swear
So just take me back if you'll dare

Just take back what's left man
And he'll try his best, that he can
But I don't really want to force you, though
If fear is stopping you from letting go

[Chorus]

I can't remove the pain I've made
It was the biggest mistake
Are you strong enough this time
To give me one last try

I can't remove the pain I've made
This was the biggest mistake
Am I strong enough this time
To give one last try

Oh yeah one last try
Are you strong enough?
This time

And I lost my girl and I lost my world
And I know I fell, this is over
Only time will tell




Cause I lost my girl and I lost my world
And know I fell 'cause
