On the long journey to the new world, the left-behind lover has “Only Time” to consider what they will say to their partner, and how to admit that they were wrong.
[Verse 1]
I've had time, time enough
To make up my mind
How to say it right
When times got tough
I made my bed
Then I laid in it
It was my chance
My moment
To take the reigns
To face the day
Burn out bright, but I faded away
[Verse 2]
I march these halls
I do my time
The reflection I see
Is no longer mine
My body wracked with pain
And to what end?
This place is changing me
I don't know myself, know myself, know myself
I rise from my slumber too soon
Drifting alone, marooned
[Bridge]
The tracks of my tears fade away
I hear the hum of the engine pushing through space
[Verse 3]
There's only time in this place
Nothing to separate the nights from the days
Only time to make it right
To fill the days and the nights
Only time (only time)
Only time (only time)
Only time (only time)
Only time
