Lyrics Ron Sexsmith

Ron Sexsmith

Counting on Time

Who gets to heal what's broken?

Who has the last word spoken?

Everyone knows

That the answer of course is time

And if I've disappointed you

And you're all disjointed

All I can do

Is to hope and pray

That you'll come around someday

And I'm counting on time

I'm counting on time

To heal these wounds

To see you through...

There was a time

When I was always around

Then I was carried along

On the sea of dreams I guess

In the pursuit of something better

I lost the one thing

That you can never replace

And now your face

Is on my mind

So I'm counting on time

I'm counting on time

To heal these wounds

To see me through

Oh it seems

I'm always working towards it

With nothing to show for it

Nothing but time

Who gets to heal what's broken?

Who has the last word spoken

Everyone knows

That the answer of course is time

Oh sweet time
