Richard Hawley - For Your Lover Give Some Time lyrics

rate me

It was your birthday yesterday

I gave a gift that almost took your breath away

But to be honest I nearly left it on the train

For your lover give some time

You talk forever on the phone

To your mother and with my thoughts I'm left alone

Now and then I think : how strange our love has grown

For your lover give some time

I will give up this cigarette

Stay at home and watch you mend the tears in your dress

Have your name in a rose tattooed across my chest

And be your lover for all time

Maybe I will drink a little less

Come home early and not complain about the day

And give you flowers from the graveyard now and then

For your lover give some time

instrument

I think of places that I've seen

A skipping stone across the ocean I have been

A ruthless man with no one else to share my dream

And for my lover gave no time

Here's is a toast to you Helen

To all the cinemas we ran in from the rain

Laughing clutching soaking newspapers to your face

And for your love you gave some time

I will give up this cigarette

Stay at home and watch you mend the tears in your dress

Have your name in a rose tattooed across my chest

And be your lover for all time

Maybe I will drink a little less

Come home early and not complain about the day

And give you flowers from the graveyard now and then

And for my lover give some time

For your lover give some time<br />

<br />
