Through Time Lyrics

Now the time has elapsed

It inevitably has come to pass

That I write for you at last a song, a rhyme



Oh, to tell you the truth of it

I?m a little confused myself

Is it through memory?s rose tinted glass?



I have come to ask

Or is it a love that was meant to last

Through time itself?



Proving us wrong all along

Shouldn?t we be holding on

It?s a silly thing really that you shouldn?t believe in



Nothing too complicated

Endlessly formulated

Foolish romantic ideals of love



Could there be such a thing?

How could there be such a thing?

As beautifully flawed



We?ll make mistakes and then

Life is the art of

Learning to live with it through time



But you knew it all along

You who, wiser than I

See it coming, see it coming

See it coming every time



How did you predict the end of the world

When you can?t see beyond the end of your nose?

Would you look at the life I chose?

Baby, it?s you I need to tell it to

Maybe, no other will ever do through time



Shouldn?t we be holding on?

Shouldn?t we be holding on?

Maybe, no other will ever do

Maybe, no other will ever do



Shouldn?t we be holding on?

Maybe, no other will ever do

Maybe, no other will ever do



Shouldn?t we be holding on?

Maybe, no other will ever do

Maybe, no other will ever do



Shouldn?t we be holding on?

Maybe, no other will ever do

Maybe, no other will ever do



Proving us wrong all along



Ideals of love

Foolish romantic

Ideals of love



Could there be such a thing?

Could there be such a thing?

Beautifully flawed, ideals of love
