Lyrics Sarah McLachlan – Time
Text:
Time here,
all but means nothing, just shadows that move across the wall
They keep me company, but they don’t ask of me
they don’t say nothing at all.
And I need just a little more time
But you send your thieves to me
silently stalking me
Dragging me into your war
Would you give me no choice in this?
I know you can’t resist, trying reopen a sore
Leave me be, I don’t want to argue
I’d just get confused and I’d come all undone
If I agree, well, it’s just to appease you
Cause I don’t remember what we’re fighting for
You see love— a tight, thorny thread that you spin in a circle of gold
You have me to hold me
a token for all to see
captured to be yours alone
And I need just a little more silence,
and I just need a little more time
The courage to pull away
there will be hell to pay
the deeper you cut to the bone
Leave me be, I don’t want to argue
I’d just get confused and I’d come all undone
If I agree, well, it’s just to appease you
Cause I don’t remember what we’re fighting for
Time here,
all but means nothing,
They keep me company,
but they don’t ask of me
they don’t say nothing at all.
Leave me be, I don’t want to argue
I’d just get confused and I’d come all undone
If I agree, well, it’s just to appease you
Cause I don’t remember what we’re fighting for
