Time Has Told Me Lyrics

Artist: Nick Drake
Album: Way To Blue

Time has told me
You're a rare rare find
A troubled cure
For a troubled mind.

And time has told me
Not to ask for more
Someday our ocean
Will find its shore.

So I`ll leave the ways that are making me be
What I really don't want to be
Leave the ways that are making me love
What I really don't want to love.

Time has told me
You came with the dawn
A soul with no footprint
A rose with no thorn.

Your tears they tell me
To stay by my side
To keep on trying
'til there's no more to hide.

So leave the ways that are making you be
What you really don't want to be
Leave the ways that are making you love
What you really don't want to love.

Time has told me
You're a rare rare find
For some day our ocean
Will find its shore.

lyrics miss a section here after your tears tell me;

you're tears they tell me
there's really no way
of ending your troubles
with things you can say
and time will tell you to stay by my side
to keep on trying 'til there's no more to hide
