Time Is The Healer
Iommi & Glenn Hughes Lyrics

There's some people that you believe in
There are people you trust and count on in life

And some people want you for more
While some expect more from you than what you can offer

And I won't deceive you
The singer assures the listener that they won't lie to them

Just let me receive the same thing, we're both looking for
The artist requests the same trust and loyalty from the listener

Time to face the real life
It's time to accept the truth and reality in life

Time to open the door
It's time to open oneself to new opportunities and possibilities

Time to make decisions
One needs to take action and make choices in life

It's time to even the score
It's time for fairness and balance in life

Time to kill the sadness
It's time to overcome sadness and negative emotions

Time just can't be denied
Time is inevitable and unstoppable

Time to make you wonder
It's time to make someone question things in life

And time to cast it aside
It's also time to let go of things that hold you back in life

Inside the garden of plenty
Metaphor for a place of abundance and opportunities in life

Is a price that we'll all have to pay
Everything in life has a cost, and one will have to pay it someday

There is a race with no color
Reference to equality and fairness among all races in life

Now I want you to hear what I say
The artist is emphasizing the importance of their message

Won't you bring me some water
The artist is requesting something simple and basic from the listener

And I will give you my blood
The singer is ready to give everything they have to the listener

But you won't give me your time
The listener is not willing to invest their time and effort in the relationship

Now have I been misunderstood?
The artist is questioning if their actions or words have been interpreted differently from their intentions

Time to catch your spirit
It's time to renew one's enthusiasm and find motivation in life again

Time to find who you love
It's time to discover true love and meaningful relationships in life

Time to find a new beginning
It's time to start fresh and move on from the past

Time will fall from above
Metaphor for the arrival of good things and opportunities in life

Time outside of the mirror
Metaphor for a perspective beyond oneself

Time to break away
It's time to detach oneself from negative influences and relationships

'Cause time is the forgiver
Time allows one to let go of past mistakes and forgive oneself or others

And time will show you the way, oh, yes it will
Time will provide guidance and clarity in life

You know, I have nothing planned
The artist is emphasizing their openness to possibilities in life

I want you to understand
The singer is seeking mutual understanding and communication

Now won't you just let it be?
The singer is requesting the listener to let things flow and not control everything

'Cause time heals your memory
With time, one's memory will gradually heal from traumatic or painful experiences

Well, time is the healer
Time has the power to heal emotional and physical wounds in life

Time, time, time is the healer
Repetition for emphasis of the importance of time in healing

Time to catch the real life
It's time to experience life fully and authentically

Time is the healer
Reiteration of the importance of time in healing
