1
Verse:
Scales and clocks just can't be trusted.
Keys and locks are destined to be busted.
Metaphors were never made for keeping score
and I'm feeling for the sound of time.
(Unison) Woo-oo-oo-oooo-oo-oo-ooWoo-oo-oo-oooo-oo-oo-oo.
Woo-oo-oo-oooo-oo-oo-ooWoo-oo-oo-oooo-oo-oo-oo.

Verse:
Is it the answeror just a suggestion.
Is love what we truly want or merely a protection.
Is this music made to last or crumble like a shell.
Is there heaven here on earth or is this really hell?
1
Chorus
(Harmony) Only Time Will Tell.
(Melody) If I am right or I am wrong.
(Harm.) Only Time Will Tell.
(Mel) Is there a message in this song.
(Harm) Will it ever make sensewill it ever ring a bell
Only Time Will Tell.

Verse:
Are we destined to be ruled
by a bunch of old white men
Who compare the world to football
and are programs to defend.
I'd like to try a princess or a non terrestrial
who is neither boast- nor bash-fulis there really such a girl?

(Harm) Will it ever make sensewill it ever ring a bell
Only Time Will Tell.

Verse:
I woke up this morning feeling' absolutely grand
For nearly half a century I've been singing in a band.
I'd like to think I'll make it to 2001.
Will the party be at my house? God I wonder who will come?

Chorus:
(Harmony) Only Time Will Tell.
(Melody) If I am right or I am wrong.

(Mel) Is there a message in this song.
(Harm) Will it ever make sense on this crazy carousel?
Only Time Will Tell.
