Recorded by Elton John, but unreleased

|
Time has told me
|
You're a rare rare find
|
A troubled cure
|
For a troubled mind
|
|
And time has told me
|
Not to ask for more
|
Someday our ocean
|
will find its shore
|
|
|
So I'll leave the ways that are making me be
|
What I really don't want to be
|
Leave the ways that are making me love
|
What I really don't want to love
|
|
|
Time has told me
|
You came with the dawn
|
A soul with no footprint
|
A rose with no thorn
|
|
|
Your tears they tell me
|
There's really no way
|
Of ending your troubles
|
With things you can say
|
|
|
And time will tell you
|
To stay by my side
|
To keep on trying
|
'Till there's no more to hide
|
|
|
So leave the ways that are making you be
|
What you really don't want to be
|
Leave the ways that are making you love
|
What you really don't want to love
|
|
|
Time has told me
|
You're a rare rare find
|
A troubled cure
|
For a troubled mind
|
|
|
And time has told me
|
Not to ask for more
|
For some day our ocean
|
Will find its shore
|
