Only Time Will Tell - JJ Heller

There’s not enough paper in this world

There’s not enough ink to write it down

No melody is sweet enough

No metaphor is deep enough

To describe the treasure I have found

I keep trying to tell you how I feel

But I always come up short

How beautiful you are to me

But there aren’t enough words

I keep trying to write a love song

But it’s hard to say it well

Love is a story that only time will tell

It’s one thing to say «for better or worse»

And another when you find out what that means

So much happens over time

Some dreams come true and some will die

How do you describe that kind of thing

I keep trying to tell you how I feel

But I always come up short

How beautiful you are to me

But there aren’t enough words

I keep trying to write a love song

But it’s hard to say it well

Love is a story that only time will tell

I’ve searched libraries

And dictionaries

Studied poets

Still all I know is

I keep trying to tell you how I feel

But I always come up short

How beautiful you are to me

But there aren’t enough words

I keep trying to write a love song

But it’s hard to say it well

Love is a story that only time will tell

Love is a story that only time will tell
