This Is How the Story Goes

This is how the story goes
Time heals all wounds
Who wrote this?
How do they know?

Tell this to his memory
Tell this to my tears
Tell this to the pain I've felt,
After three dreadful years

Time may heal a lot of things
Such as measles, mumps and woes
Time can heal a lot of things
In matters of the heart, nobody knows
