Lyrics

Given Time
[2024/09/24]

[Verse]
You were lost in a storm, lost from thought
when you became lost in 'Their' eyes.
A babe in the woods when you two met and
you couldn't see how often 'They' lied.

[Verse repeats]
'They' were a dark light, as transparent as night
and for you wickedly good.
A gold mine, you thought, well, until 'They' were caught
and cut you out like dead wood.

[Pre-Chorus]
You're so sure your life is over,
uncertain about what you might find.

[Chorus]
Given time, even mountains will erode.
Given time, the stone will wear away.
Given time, broken hearts will recover.
Given time, you'll be glad 'They' didn't stay.

[Break]

[Verse]
To you, 'They' were that one in a million.
You believed 'Them' a priceless gem.
You only saw 'Them' and 'Their' sensuous beauty.
You didn't see 'They' only thought about 'Them.'

Behind the scenes, 'They' beat to 'Their' drum,
and to a rhythm only 'They' heard.
If 'They' had stayed, the end would have been bitter.
So, I offer these comforting words.

[Chorus]
Given time, even mountains will erode.
If given time, the stone will wear away.
Given time, broken hearts will recover.
Given time, you'll be glad 'They' didn't stay.

[Bridge]
'We' can be your bed of roses.
'We' will be given the time.

[Chorus]
Given time, even mountains will erode.
If given time, the stone will wear away.
Given time, broken hearts will recover.
Given time, you'll be glad 'They' didn't stay.

[Chorus / Outro]
Given time, even mountains will erode.
If given time, the stone will wear away.
Given time, broken hearts will recover.
Given time, you'll see that 'We'll' stay.
