Richard hell and the voidoids time lyrics

Time and time again I knew what I was doing and

Time and time again I just made things worse

It seems you see the most of what is really true when

You're stepping into your hearse



Only time can write a song that's really really real

The most a man can do is say the way its playing feels

And know he only knows as much as time to him reveals



And when I want to write a song that says it all at once

Like time sublimely silences the whys

I know that if I try I'm going to take a fall at once

And splatter there between my lies



Only time can write a song that's really really real

The most a man can do is say the way its playing feels

And know he only knows as much as time to him reveals



We are made of it and if we give submission

Among our chances there's a chance we can choose

And if we take it, by uncertainty's permission

Then it's impossible to lose



Only time can write a song that's really really real

The most a man can do is say the way its playing feels

And know he only knows as much as time to him reveals
