Billy Preston - Watching the Hands of Time Lyrics

We parted hard
Much less than friends
We played so many games
Until no one could win

But time has been so kind
To give a second chance
And bring our love
Back once again

I wasn't mature
I didn't understand
Inaudible
Between a woman and a man
Thanking the stars
While I was missing you
You were wanting my love

We've just been
Watching the hands of time
Growing up so we could find
The way back together
A love like ours can't die

Watching the hands of time
It just took a little more time
To get us back together
Our love is forever

Yes I love you
I love you too baby

All of the time
We were apart
I'd never waste a day without you in my heart
Inaudible
The love that we shared
I wondered why you weren't there

Ooh baby
Let's forget the past
You know and I know
A love like ours was meant to last
Deep in our hearts
We will always be
Why did it take so long for us to see
We've just been
Watching the hands of time
Growing up so we could find
The way back together
A love like ours can't die

Watching the hands of time
It just took a little more time
To get us back together
Our love is forever

I love you
Oh I love you too baby

I'm never gonna give you up
Girl you know you're my heaven
I'm never gonna let it stop
Inaudible
You're everything I need
You light up every part of me
We're far along the way
Taking it day by day"
