Dolly Parton - Time and tears

I didn't cry all of these tears just to have you show up here again I didn't lie awake all these nights to have you come walking back in I didn't change my whole life around, not to mention my dreams and my plans To have you come back with your same ol' act thinking that I'll understand Time and tears have mended the pain Healed all the hurt and changed everything Time and tears I'm happy to say Time and tears have washed it away Time and tears have washed you away I didn't think that I would survive the day that you walked out on me I truly was more dead than alive; and the pain, Lord I couldn't believe I asked God to please have mercy on me and to ease all the feelings I felt Then I saw the light, now I'm more than alright; I'm much better off since you left Time and tears have mended the pain Healed all the hurt and changed everything Time and tears have carried me through Time and tears got me over you Time and tears and somebody new Time and tears is all that it takes To mend shattered hopes or a heart when it breaks Time and tears have carried me through Time and tears got me over you Time and tears and somebody new Time and tears, time and tears got me over you Time and tears, got me over you
