The frequency dependent time delay correlation function $K(\Omega)$ is studied analytically for a particle reflected from a finite one-dimensional disordered system. In the long sample limit $K(\Omega)$ can be used to extract the resonance width distribution $\rho(\Gamma)$. Both quantities are found to decay algebraically as $\Gamma^{ -\nu}$, and $\Omega^{ -\nu}$, $\nu\simeq 1.25$ in a large range of arguments. Numerical calculations for the resonance width distribution in 1D non-Hermitian tight-binding model agree reasonably with the analytical formulas.
