Angel Eyes movie - Only Time Will Tell lyrics

rate me

Song by Etta James<br /><br>

I just needed someone, somebody to hold<br>

When the bottle was empty<br>

And the nights grew cold<br>

In my hour of darkness<br>

In my time of need<br>

You were my angel of mercy<br>

And helped me to believe<br>

You touched my soul<br>

When I was lonely<br>

You held me up<br>

When I couldn't fly<br>

There's no words could explain<br>

How I feel inside<br>

And this I tell you<br>

In a world full of anger<br>

In times gone strange<br>

You held me close<br>

You held me close to you<br>

Lay my head on your shoulder<br>

I finally let it all out<br>

It felt good for a moment<br>

Not living in a shadow of doubt<br>

But everybody needs a little something<br>

To pull them through<br>

I gave one for the other<br>

And God know that the other was you<br>

Now only time will tell<br>

Only time will tell<br>

If our love is scratched in sand<br>

Or if it's etched in stone<br>

Only time will tell<br>

Only time will tell<br>

If our love will stand<br>

Or walk the road alone<br>

My angel of mercy<br>

Pulled me through somehow<br>

I just hope you know<br>

I need you now<br>

You're the one<br>

That touched my very soul<br>

The one who held on tight<br>

God knows you never let go<br>

Now only time will tell<br>

Only time will tell<br>

If our love is scratched in sand<br>

Or if it's etched in stone<br>

Only time will tell<br>

Only time will tell<br>

If our love will stand<br>

Or walk the road alone<br>

Only time will<br>

Only time will<br>

(Can you bring my hands to yours)<br>

Only time will tell<br>

(Can you teach my soul to fly)<br>

Only time will<br>

Only time will<br>

(Can you save me)<br>

Only time will tell<br>

Angel of mercy<br>

It's time we closed the door<br>

Put out the lights<br>

And burn the fire<br>

Burn the fire inside<br>

Angel of mercy<br>

You pulled me through<br>

And this I tell to you<br>

Lord know I'd tell it to you<br>

<br>
