Refreshments - Only time can tell lyrics

rate me

You may ask the moon and the stars and the Lord above

What the future holds for you and your newfound love

It might be in the tealeaves ´n´ written in the sand

Still there´s a thing that you must understand

From Paradise to a broken dream

The step is not as far as it may seem

Our road ahead was lookin´ mighty swell

But here´s a lesson we have learned so well

Only time will tell

Only time will tell

The fortune-teller gazed in to her crystal ball

She saw “Happiness” written on the wall

Then in a deck of cards and in the palm of my hand

Bells will be ringin´ I hired a wedding band

From Paradise to a broken dream

The step is not as far as it may seem

Our road ahead was lookin´ mighty swell

But here´s a lesson we have learned so well

Only time will tell

Only time will tell

Solo

Well we took what we had and laid it on the line

And here we are miles apart

Though we followed every sign

All your friends say that they envy you for your catch

And even your mother says it´s funny how the two of you match

Well I´m raising a warning finger for the times to come

I have heard this story repeated more than some

From Paradise to a broken dream

The step is not as far as it may seem

Our road ahead was lookin´ mighty swell

But here´s a lesson we have learned so well

Only time will tell

Only time will tell

Only time will tell
