Asia – Only Time Will Tell – Ascolto e testo

Nel 1981 dei musicisti già celebri per aver suonato in grandi gruppi come gli Yes, King Crimson, Emerson Lake and Palmer e The Buggles si uniscono e danno vita al supergruppo Progressive Rock degli Asia.

La secondo me bellissima Only Time Will Tell (Solo il tempo ci dirà) è la seconda traccia del loro primo album, Asia, del 1982.

Il testo di Only Time Will Tell

You’re leaving now it’s in your eyes
There’s no disguising it
It really comes as no surprise
To find that you planned it all along

I see it now becomes so clear
Your insincerity
And me all starry eyed
You think that I would have known by now

Now sure as the sun will cross the sky
This lie is over
Lost like the tears that used to tide
Me over

(Only time will tell)
One thing is sure
That time will tell
(Only time will tell)
If you were wrong
The brightest ring around the moon
Will darken when I die

Now sure as the sun will cross the sky
The lie is over
Gone like the tears that used to tide
Me over

You’re leaving now it’s in your eyes
There’s no disguising it
It really comes as no surprise
To find that you planned it all along

(Only time will tell)
I see it now
Becomes so clear
(Only time will tell)
Your insincerity
And me all starry eyed
You think that I would have known by now

Now sure as the sun will cross the sky
This lie is over
Lost like the tears that used to tide
Me over
(Over, over, over)

(Only time will tell)
You’re on your own
Inside your room
(Only time will tell)
You’re claiming victory
You were just using me
And there is no one you can use now

(Only time will tell)
One thing is sure
That time will tell
