(Beth Nielsen Chapman/Harlan Howard)

I can't believe that after all this time
You keep slipping back across my mind
Did we maybe leave a love behind
Afraid of what we felt

Other loves I've had have come and gone
I don't know why they just don't last too long
There are questions that go on and on
That time won't tell

Time won't tell me how it might have been
Time won't make what's wrong alright
It can only take me back again
And re-run all those memories in black and white

I watch us kiss goodbye that day
Here's where you turned around and walked away
What were the words that would have made you stay
Time won't tell

(Repeat chorus)

You never see the road you didn't take
You never feel the love you fail to make
To never know may be the worst mistake
Cause time won't tell
No, time won't tell...
