Time is on my side, yes it is (Yes, yes)
Now you always say that you wanna be free
(You'll coming runnin' back)
Just like I hoped you would, baby
(You'll coming runnin' back)
I won't have to cry no more

But just wait and see
(You'll coming runnin' back)
One of these days, baby
(You'll coming runnin' back)
Oh, and it won't be long
(You'll coming runnin' back)
Oh, all my worries will be over
(To me) 'Cause I'll have my baby home

[Bridge]
Go right ahead, baby
Go ahead and light up the town
And baby, do everything your heart desires
Just remember, I'll still be around
And I know, I know
Like I told you so many times before
You're gonna come back
Yes, you're gonna come back a-knocking
Knocking on my door
Yeah, yeah, yeah

Time is on my side, yes it is (Yes, yes)
Time is on my side, yes it is (Yes, yes)

I'm not gonna have to worry no more
(You'll coming runnin' back)
(To me) All of my worries will be over

[Outro]
Time, time, time is on my side
Yes it is, yeah (Yes, yes)
Time, time, time is on my side
You're gonna come runnin' back to me (Yes, yes)
Time, time, time is on my side
