The Woodentops - A Little More Time lyrics

rate me

She carries the sun in a honey-skinned

Palm trees still rustle in her breezy hair

And in her eyes some mystery that keeps me there

And her looking out to sea, soul’s there

She would’ve lived for ever where her heart was broken

In some ladies’ man snare

She tasted her dream and it cracked her like where she started

Just a little more time

Just a little more time

Don’t want this window to close

Just a little more time

Another glass of wine

Don’t want this window to close

Talking is easy, far from the fireflies

Yes, I’d like to wake with a whisper to her ear

Yes, I know I’d be in jail, too

I met her years ago and the poetry flooded art

We made love with words, kept the right distance

And together should be so

…just a world that goes, a crowding crowd that dream

And you can’t keep this perfect creature in some box

Just a little more time

Just a little more time

Don’t want this window to close

Just a little more time

Another glass of wine

Don’t want this window to close

Just a little more time

A little more time

Don’t want this window to close

Just a little more time

Another glass of wine

Don’t want this window to close

Talking is easy, far from the fireflies

Yes, I’d like to wake with a whisper to her ear

Yes, I know I’d be in jail, too
