We can't make life a bed of roses
There can't be right without a wrong
We have to deal with what life throws us
'Cause in the end it makes us strong
Now the honeymoon's over
And we can't get it back
Let's face up to the facts
Only time can change the way things are
Hope and faith will only take us so far
And if we don't give up without a fight
When it comes to the heart
Only time can change the way we are
There will be moments all is perfect
But they just come and go too fast
Keep your eyes on the long road
As it twists and it winds
And leave our troubles behind
Only time can change the way things are
Hope and faith will only take us so far
And if we don't give up without a fight
When it comes to the heart
Only time can change the way we are
When it comes to the point
Where we end up alone
We won't suffer in silence
With nothing to show
And I know it's a heavy load
You've had all you can take
But I think that storm's 'bout to break
Only time can change the way things are
And hope and faith will only take us so far
And if we don't give up without a fight
When it comes to the heart
You know that time can change the way we are
We are
