lyrics

WHEN THE TIME COMES

When I rise in the morning, I can’t help cursing the day
That you ever, no never take your sweet love away
If you knew how I love you, that it hurts me so
I won’t ever, no never want to let you go
When the time comes to set you free

How well I know that our love story is turning out wrong
I see too many reasons and more, we shouldn’t go on
Can I be just as strong as I’d hoped I’d be
Or will I break down in misery
When the time comes to set you free

And when it’s time to say good-bye
I don’t know how many million tears I’ll cry
Can I hide my tears from you
And be as strong as you’d want me to

When it’s over and done with will I see things in a different way
Can we still be friends or just go our separate ways
It’s so hard to imagine, lying next to you
How I’m ever, no never gonna make it through
When the time comes to set you free

And when it’s time to say good-bye
I don’t know how many million tears I’ll cry
Can I hide my tears from you
And be as strong as you’d want me to

When it’s over and done with will I see things in a different way
Can we still be friends or just go our separate ways
It’s so hard to imagine, lying next to you
How I’m ever, no never gonna make it through
When the time comes to set you free
