Time Hasn't Changed Anything

Verse 1: It’s been a cold and bitter winter

The third since I last saw you

The creek froze over and didn’t move ‘til March

I took the blankets off the windows

Hoping next time that the wind blows

It’ll blow this dusty chill right off my heart




Verse 2: I saw an Easter Lily bloomin’

On the side of yonder mountain

And it gave me hope for new life yet to come

I bowed my head and started prayin’

Stared down this old dirt road a’waitin’

To see you running back with outstretched arms




Chorus 1:And I wait for you now like I waited back then

Time hasn’t changed anything




Verse 3: I opened up my eyes this mornin’

When that old rooster started crowin’

And I walked outside to sit and watch for you

And right around the time the sun set

My sister came to visit

And told me that it’s time I face the truth




Verse 4: But I really didn’t listen

To talks of war, God, and Heaven

She tells me that is where you’ve gone to stay

But I can’t make myself believe that

If it were true I would accept

But I know you’ll find your way back home one day




REPEAT CHORUS 1




Verse 5: These eyes can barely see the road, now

Can’t even hear the rooster crow, now

Oh, I hope you’ll recognize me through my age

‘Cause I can feel it in my bones, now

You’re on the road that leads you home, now

And I can’t wait to see your smiling face




Verse 6: And just like I’d always imagined

I see you there so strong and handsome

And that old dirt road looks more like Jordan’s shores

And like a dream I run to meet you

Fall in your arms whispering, “I’ve missed you.

I’ve waited for you since you left for war.




Chorus 2:And I love you this day like I loved you back then.

Time hasn’t changed anything
