You were so cruel

I hated being your fool

So I got a little bit more mud on my face

But the years will bring a bigger scheme of things

And make a pretty memory out of my disgrace

I don't believe there is such a thing as saying too much

There are those who like to look and

Those who ain't afraid to touch



Oh baby don't you know that the

Time will do the talking

Years will do the walking

I'll just find a comfy spot and wait it out

Time will do the talking

Years will do the walking

Time will tell you baby what you can't hear now



Well we dig our heels in

And wonder who's gonna win

Who is gonna win it or wear it out

I change the lock on the door

Or learn how to take a little more

I can outrun all of the devils there

But never the doubt

Try not to throw all your money into 20/20 vision

For the world won't wait on politics or indecision



Oh baby don't you know that the

Time will do the talking

Years will do the walking

I'll just find a comfy spot and wait it out

Time will do the talking

Years will do the walking

Time will tell you baby what you can't hear now



Can you hear the voice inside you

It calls you back to where you belong

Can you see the one beside you

Who's been standin' there all along

Baby, well you were so cruel

I hated being your fool

So I got a little bit more

Mud on my face

But the years will bring

The bigger scheme of things

And make a pretty memory out of my disgrace



The time will do the talking

Years will do the walking

I'll just find a comfy spot and wait it out

Time will do the talking

Years will do the walking

Time will tell you baby what you can't hear now

Time will tell you baby what you can't hear now

Time will tell you baby what you can't hear now
