Time's been good to me,
Time took your memory
Erased it slow but well,
Now I can almost tell.
The fire that used to burn
Is gone and won't return
I'm close to victory,
Time's been good to me.
They all told me that time would only fan the flame
Each minute without you I'd love you more
And for a while I dreaded each new day that came
Afraid of what the future held in store.
But time's been good to me
Time took your memory
Erased it slow but well,
Now I can almost tell.
The fire that used to burn
Is gone and won't return
I'm close to victory,
Time's been good to me.
