"Time Will Show The Wiser" lyrics - OF MONTREAL

My mind keeps on telling me
That this is no good
And my heart is aching
That tells me I should
But only time will show the wiser

I've fallen in love with a girl that's not mine
If I take her it will hurt him
A very best friend of mine
But I know that I need someone, to hold, to love
And my mind says I shouldn't
But my heart says I should

[Pre-Chorus:]
And I don't know which to go by
My mind or my heart
And this is so confusing
It's tearing me apart

[Chorus:]
Time, it will show the wiser

Well, I wish someone would help me
This decision is mine
And my morals and emotions are hard to combine
And there is no easy way
Out to limit the time
That it takes till she finds out
For the love that I hide

[Pre-Chorus]

[Chorus 3x]
