Only Time Will Tell

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
