It' a matt er of time b efore I go back there
A Matter of time be fore I go h ome.
I have been away from her now and for a long time
and I've lived a life I though that it should be
It's a long long way from now to maybe s ometime
And the waiting round is really killing m e.
I t's a matt er of tim e before I go back there
A matter of time - L ord b efore I go home
it' a long w ay I kno w and the going ain't easy
She'll see me again it's a mat ter of time.
I think I'll take a train right early in the morning
Just to see how far I get along the way
But the trains don't run too often only so metimes
So I guess I'd better wait anothe r day.

She'll see me I know it's just a matter of time.
