When you stand before the face frame mirror
Staring through you there's more than they see
And it's time that wears you down
There ain't enough time
When you turn to the page in life
Where what was once good no longer feels right
Then it's love that tears you up when you need love

I been a fool, fool for love ( I been used )
Time can be cruel somehow I know ( I been used )
Time it will use you and I been used

When I had it near there was more than I needed
But I dug too deep and my way poisoned our seed
It can be hard to tell my self
"I don't need love"

I been a fool, fool for love ( I been used )
Time can be cruel somehow I know ( I been used )
Time it will use you and I been used

Well in my life there been times that I stood and lost
But in my life I have learned to be free
I tell you the law that I lay down that will be down
That I 'm above love, light, right and whatever may be
Used...yeah, yeah, yeah used...yeah, yeah, yeah...
Used...yeah, yeah, yeah used...yeah, yeah, yeah...

I know the tide's gonna turn my way
Cuz lord shines the light on me...
And I know time won't used me no more
