We're all a mystery in this world in which we live 
And there's no guarantee that we'll get back what we give 
We take a chance on love a dream that lasts forever 
We're only flesh and blood 
Throwing coins in a wishing well

Only time will tell if a love is true 
Only time will tell what a heart is gonna do 
Only time will tell who's the dreamer, who's the fool 
Only time will tell

We tie the ties that bind with a simple act of faith 
No matter how we try we're in the hands of fate 
We take the gift of life and give it to each other 
We promise you and I a promise that we'll try to keep

Only time will tell if a love is true 
Only time will tell what a heart is gonna do 
Only time will tell who's the dreamer, who's the fool 
Only time will tell

We take the gift of life and give it to each other 
We promise you and I a promise that we'll try to keep

Only time will tell if a love is true 
Only time will tell what a heart is gonna do 
Only time will tell who's the dreamer, who's the fool 
Only time will tell
