Time Will Only Tell Lyrics

Rag'n'bone Man Time Will Only Tell

[Verse 1]
Learned how to love, throw it all away
Gonna drink ourselves to an early grave
Gonna let it slip right through our hands
Gonna bury our heads in the sand

[Chorus]
Time will only tell
Time will only tell
Time will only tell
Are we listening to ourselves?

[Verse 2]
Turn off the lights, 'cause they're only [?]
Or do you spend your whole night [?]
Situation's gettin' kinda mean
Gonna have to deal with the big war machine

[Chorus]
Time will only tell
Time will only tell
Time will only tell
Are we listening to oursеlves?

[Bridge]
You said, "Father, won't you tell mе who I'm supposed to be?
'Cause there's so many pressures with the world at your feet"
Every generation's responsibilities
To be listening to ourselves
She said, "Mother, won't you tell me how I'm supposed to tell
'Cause Hollywood's told me it's only mostly real"
To stand up and be counted, it takes big nerves of steel
Start listening to ourselves

[Chorus]
Time will only tell
Time will only tell
Time will only tell
Are we listening to ourselves?
Are we listening to ourselves?

[Outro]
Ooh, are we listening to ourselves?
Ooh, are we listening to ourselves?
Are we listening to ourselves?
Are we listening to ourselves?
