Only a couple of corrections in this

TIME WILL SHOW THE WISER
(Rhodes)

My mind keeps on telling me that this is no good
And my heart is aching, (that) and 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) the 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

And I don't know which to go by, my mind or my heart
And this is so confusing, it's tearing me apart
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

And I don't know which to go by, my mind or my heart
And this is so confusing, it's tearing me apart
Time, it will show the wiser
Time, it will show the wiser
Time, it will show the wiser

Additional verse and repeated chorus in this
ONE SURE THING

He used to be the only man I would see
He used to be the only good man for me
Oh, he used to be my one sure thing

There was a time when he would come when I called
There was a time when I would take and not give at all
Oh he used to be my one sure thing ADDITIONAL VERSE

Look at me now, what you see, it isn't me
Look at me now, just a leaf without a tree
Oh, he used to be my one sure thing

My man, he doesn't care for me
And what he does, he doesn't do for me
And when I need something
To him, it doesn't mean a thing
You know he used to be my one sure thing

My man, he doesn't care for me
And what he does, he doesn't do for me
And when I need something
To him, it doesn't mean a thing
You know he used to be my one sure thing

And the last one I think

IT'S ALRIGHT MA, IT'S ONLY WITCHCRAFT

Lookin' through the window to see which way the wind blows
It seems as though a hurricane is due today
Sunny on the outside, stormy on the inside
Stormy weather's always best for making hay

Here comes Everlastin', looks like he's been fastin'
With his friends in the den where directors roll
Like a banderillo with his cigarillo
Robs the rich, robs the rest, brings it all back home

Please don't get us wrong, man
This is just a song, man
No matter what you say
This is the season, stormy weather's on the way
This is the season, stormy weather's on the way
You better start worrying (which *grabs* you) witchcraft's here to stay

In blows Snow White, the dwarves are kinda off-white
The (patient's) vision's his decision so they're outta luck
Associates are reelin', the wallpaper is peelin'
He doesn't see the paperwork that's come unstuck

Please don't get us wrong, man
This is just a song, man
No matter what you say
This is the season, stormy weather's on the way
This is the season, stormy weather's on the way
You better start worrying(which *grabs*you) witchcraft's here to stay

In comes Saville, had his fill of travel
Grabbed a bite on the flight, just touched down today
Lookin' drawn and haggard, through the door he staggered
With a sound that he found (on the) over Frisco Way
Please don't get us wrong, man
This is just a song, man
No matter what you say
This is the season, stormy weather's on the way
This is the season, stormy weather's on the way
You better start worrying(which *grabs*you) witchcraft's here to stay
