Does the river run forever
Does the eagle only live to fly
How do lovers stay together
Why does anybody even try
Why was I looking for somebody new
When I had the answer in you
Only time can mend a heart
So don't let one mistake
Tear our love apart
Oh I left you in the dark
But you kept a light burnin' brightly
For my restless heart
Every road I've ever travelled
Taught me things I'd never known before
Every mistery I've unrevelled
Brought me closer to your door
And I took advantage of how much you care
Believin' you'd always be there
Only time can mend a heart
So don't let one mistake
Tear our love apart
Oh I left you in the dark
But you kept a light burnin' brightly
For my restless heart
Oh I followed a rainbow
Forever and blue
Though I knew that in time
It would lead back to you
Only time can mend a heart
So don't let one mistake
Tear our love apart
Oh I left you in the dark
But you kept a light burnin' brightly
For my restless heart
Does the eagle only live to fly
How do lovers stay together
Why does anybody even try
Why was I looking for somebody new
When I had the answer in you
Only time can mend a heart
So don't let one mistake
Tear our love apart
Oh I left you in the dark
But you kept a light burnin' brightly
For my restless heart
Every road I've ever travelled
Taught me things I'd never known before
Every mistery I've unrevelled
Brought me closer to your door
And I took advantage of how much you care
Believin' you'd always be there
Only time can mend a heart
So don't let one mistake
Tear our love apart
Oh I left you in the dark
But you kept a light burnin' brightly
For my restless heart
Oh I followed a rainbow
Forever and blue
Though I knew that in time
It would lead back to you
Only time can mend a heart
So don't let one mistake
Tear our love apart
Oh I left you in the dark
But you kept a light burnin' brightly
For my restless heart
