You were so cruel
And 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, oh no
There are those who like to look and those who ain't afraid to touch
But 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 I’ll wait it out
The 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 I wonder who's going to win this
Who is going to win it or wear it out?
I change the lock on the door
I learn how to take a little more
I can outrun all of the devils there but never the doubt, no, no
Try not to throw all your money into twenty-twenty vision, oh no
For the world won't wait on politics or indecision
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 I’ll wait it out
Yes, the 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?
Yeah, it calls you back to where you belong, oh no
Can you see the one beside you there?
Who's been standing there all along?
Baby, well, you were so cruel
And 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 I’ll wait it out, yes, I will now
The time will do the talking
Years will do the walking
Time will tell you, baby, what you can't hear now
Oh the time will tell you, baby, what you can't hear now
Oh the time will tell you, baby, what you can't hear now
