"Only Time" (2000) is the lead single from the fifth studio album, "A Day Without Rain", by New Age Irish singer-songwriter, Enya.  Viewed as a sleeper hit in the USA, the single did manage to peaked at number 10 on the Billboard Hot 100 in 2001, making it the singer's only top 10 within the USA.

"Only Time" was released to US radio in 2000, around the same time it was released to international radio markets.  The single did not garner much airplay initially in the US, however, throughout 2000, the single, started to pick up airplay within US markets.  Upon a re-working of the single, the song picked up more airplay into 2001.  A physical CD-single of the song was released in late 2001 as a double A-side holiday single.  Proceeds from the US single were donated to the Uniform Firefighters Association's Widows' and Children's Fund to help the families of firefighters in the aftermath of 9/11.
