[Verse 1]
I was on my way back home
My heart was like a stone
With the stars up in the sky
As they watched us say goodbye
It won't hide or disguise
My love you cried
As we say goodbye
The time was slow
I didn't want to see you go
Oh no, oh no

[Chorus]
The hour won't tell you no lies
The hour won't tell you no lies
It won't hide or disguise
The hour won't tell you no lies

[Verse 2]
There were times he raised his hand
And I could not understand
But you know my memory
We never could agree
It won't hide or disguise
Time, sweet time
Keeping me and mine
You stay true
In spite of all of you
Oh wait, oh wait
[Chorus]
The hour won't tell you no lies
The hour won't tell you no lies
It won't hide or disguise
The hour won't tell you no lies

[Chorus]
The hour won't tell you no lies
The hour won't tell you no lies
It won't hide or disguise
The hour won't tell you no lies
