Time Will Tell

Turning in the grain again

The bells begin to chime

Time, she says,

“There’s no turning back,

Keep your eyes on the tracks”

Through the fields, somewhere there’s blue

Oh, time will tell, she’ll see us through

Howling out,

The windy hills

And all the time we took

You should know just how it steals

Keep your hand on the wheel

And through it all, somewhere we knew

Time will tell, she’ll see us through

And all fire and flames took all we trust

We’re kicking up dust

Stations fade just like they do

Oh, time will tell, we always knew

Oh, time will tell, we always knew
