Only Time Will Tell Lyrics - Etta James

Cigarette ashes 

his empty glass 

they seem to tell me 

it's over at last 

his parting kiss 

brought tears to my eyes 

was it goodnight 

or was it goodbye? 

And only time, only time, 

only time, only time, 

time will tell 

time will tell 

oh yes it is, time will tell

Wrinkled up sofa 

scuff marks on the floor 

shows where he was sitting 

he was sitting a moment ago 

he's never left 

this early before 

is this a sign 

he'll be back no more? 

And only time, only time, 

only time, only time, 

time will tell 

time will tell 

oh yes it is, time will tell 

I felt a change the moment you came 

walking, hh coming through my front door 

This conversation was almost the same 

Still I could tell that something was wrong, 

his feelings were changed 

Photos 

Now empty those ashtrays 

His glass put away, 

straighten my sofa 

oh was my solid race 

But will I ever, 

will ever erase from my mind 

the way you looked me, 

the way you looked me, 

when you kissed me goodnight. 

Only time (Only time) 

Only time (Only time) 

Only time 

Only time 

Only time 

Only time (Only time) 

Only time (Only time) 

Only time will tell
