I remember asking daddy just when he thought the corn was gonna grow
He said I can plow the fields and plant the seed but some things I don't know
I can't tell you when it's gonna rain or when the sun'll shine
Bout the only thing that I can say for sure is it'll happen when it's time

It'll happen when it's time
There's no way to change the tide or rush the season
There's not much that you can do but wait your turn in line
Hold on and just believe be patient and you'll see
It'll happen when it's time

I remember my first broken heart how I thought that it would never mend
And saying to my momma oh I'd probably never fall in love again
Now love has come and made me see what she said back then was really true
Someday you're gonna fall in love again but not until you do

It'll happen when it's time...

Till then there's not much you can do but wait your turn in line
Hold on and just believe be patient and you'll see
It'll happen when it's time
