If you'll only give me time

 All the heartache that he left behind

 Will fade from my mind

I'll be free to love again

If you'll only give me time

I'll forget I even knew his name

Forget that he came

I'll be no good till I can try to understand

But when I'm sure I need him no more

 That's when I'll reach out for your hand

 So darling give me time and you will see that I'm

 Ready to love you just as you love me

Wait awhile till I can find my smile

 And I'll be yours for as long as I live

If you'll only give me time, yeah
