"It's A Matter Of Time" lyrics

It's a matter of time before I go back there
A matter of time before I go home

I have been 'way from her now for a long time
And I lived a life that I thought it should be
It's a long, long way from now to maybe sometime
And the waiting 'round is really killing me

It's a matter of time before I go back there
It's a matter of time
A matter of time, oh Lord, before I go home
It's a long way, I know, and the goin' ain't easy
It's a long way, I know
She'll see me again, it's a matter of time

I think I'll take a train right early in the morning
Just to see how far I get away along the way
But the trains don't run too often, only sometimes
So I guess I'd better wait another day

It's a matter of time before I go back there
It's a matter of time
Matter of time before I go home
It's a long way, I know, and the goin' ain't easy
She'll see me again, just a matter of time
She'll see me again, I know, it's a matter of time
