Time is on my side. (Yes, it is!) Time is on my side. (Yes, it is!)

Now, you always say .. that you want to be free,

But you'll come running back, you'll come running back, you'll come running back to me

Time is on my side. (Yes, it is!) Time is on my side. (Yes, it is!)

You're searching for good times .. but just wait and see,

You'll come running back, you'll come running back, you'll come running back to me

Go ahead . . . go ahead and light up the town,

Baby, do everything your heart desires . . .

Remember, I'll always be around . . .

And I know, like I told you so many times before . . .

You're gonna come back, baby . . . you're gonna come back knockin' right on my door!

Time is on my side. (Yes, it is!) Time is on my side. (Yes, it is!)

'Cause I got the real love .. the kind that you need,

You'll come running back, you'll come running back, you'll come running back to me

Time, time, time, is on my side. (Yes, it is!) Time, time, time, is on my side. (Yes, it is!)
