Time Will Destroy You
One, two, three, four

[Verse 1]
Will you take a man for everything he's got?
Will you take a love even though it’s lost?
Should I take a chance on a risky game?
Who will point the finger, who will take the blame?

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Well, I know I've been a-fooling about
And I know the devil loves to laugh
And I know your evil mind will give out

[Chorus]
But time may destroy you
And your heart may be broken again

[Verse 2]
When is it gonna end, who'll be the last to call?
Maybe they don’t know, even though you fall
Moving us around and it won't be long
Everybody knows that you don't belong

[Pre-Chorus 2]
But I know you're looking out for number one
And I know they're making Puerto Rican rum
And I know at my expense you're having fun
[Chorus]
But time may destroy you
And your heart may be broken again
But time may destroy you
And your heart may be broken again

[Bridge]
I lift your cigarette back up
I knew that everything was right
But you had other plans
You'll take your scheme to another man

[Verse 1]
Will you take a man for everything he's got?
Will you take a love even though it’s lost?
Should I take a chance on a risky game?
Who will point the finger, who will take the blame?

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Well, I know I’ve been a-fooling about
And I know the devil loves to laugh
And I know your evil mind will give out

[Chorus]
But time will destroy you
And your heart may be broken again
Oh, time may destroy you
And your heart will be broken again
Oh, time will destroy you
And your heart will be broken
Time will destroy you
And your heart may be broken
Time may destroy you
And your heart will be broken
Time may destroy you
And your heart will be broken again
