ONLY TIME...

Monday's Lyrics - Only Time by Enya

"Run the risk, if you get hurt, you'll come back. Because, the truth is there is no sense living your life without this. To make the journey and not fall deeply in love - well, you haven't lived a life at all. You have to try. Because if you haven't tried, you haven't lived." ~ William Parrish (Meet Joe Black)

This song paints a picture of that delicate tight rope walked, in following one’s heart.   It may lead you to love everlasting, or to a great disappointment.   There are no guarantees… Only time. 
In all that we do, you can choose fear or you can choose love.  Fear acts with the intention of protecting you from getting hurt or suffering disappointments.  The only problem with fear is it can also become a self imposed prison.  Some people build fortresses around their heart, while others build bridges. 
I believe if you walk in the shadow of fear, you’re not living.  Love on the other hand lifts your spirit and fills you.  You must be willing to risk possible disappointments to ever have a chance at knowing love.   Only time can reveal its sustainability and truth. 

Only Time lyrics



Who can say
where the road goes
where the day flows
only time
And who can say
if your love grows
as your heart chose
only time
Who can say
why your heart sighs
as your love flies
only time
And who can say
why your heart cries
when your love lies
only time

Who can say
when the roads meet
that love might be
in your heart
And who can say
when the day sleeps
if the night keeps
all your heart

Night keeps all your heart

Who can say
if your love grows
as your heart chose
only time
And who can say
where the road goes
where the day flows
only time

Who knows - only time
Who knows - only time

let me start by first saying this post was very inspiring. Second, I'm your newest follower! I love the idea of your blog. I hurdle for my university and have a seemingly HUGE dream of going as far I can with my abilities. I hurdle and I high jump, currently. :)

Can't wait to read more of your page!
