[Chorus 1]
Time will be the healer once again
Time will lift you up and other than
I know that you can't stand to hear his name
Time will be the healer once again

[Verse 1]
One day when you're long past this you'll laugh about it
Sometimes you gotta be a river to go around it
Just put a little distance between your world and his
Time will be your best friend when it comes to this

[Verse 2]
That's what you get for loving someone else's man
Burn that bridge, break that bond and change your plan
That boy don't wanna stay, just let him go
Time will be the best friend that you know

[Chorus 2]
Time will be the healer once again
Time will lift you up and other than
I know that you can't stand to hear his name
Well, time will be the healer once again

[Verse 3]
Keep your friends and neighbours close at hand
Stay busy with your work and don't give in
To the bottle or your self-defeat again
Time will be the healer once again
Ooooooh-ooh
[Verse 4]
Time will see you through this, you'll live to tell
Time will pick you up and serve you well
A life lived true and full is the best prevail
Cause time will stand for something in the end

[Chorus 3]
Time will be the healer once again
Time will lift you up, that you'll win again
Pretty soon, you won't even recall his name
Time will be the healer once again
Time will be the healer once again
