Sarah McLachlan - Time Lyrics

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 (ah)
And I need just a little more silence (ah)
And I need just a little more time

But you send your thieves to me
Silently stalking me
Dragging me into your wall
Would you give me no choice in this?
I know you can't resist, trying to reopen a sore

Leave me be, I don't wanna argue
I'd just get confused and I'd come all undone
And if I agree, well, it's just to appease you
'Cause I don't remember what we're fighting for

You see love, the 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
I need just a little more silence
And I need just 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 wanna argue
I'd just get confused and I'd come all undone
And 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
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

Leave me be, I don't wanna argue
I'd just get confused and I'd come all undone
And if I agree, well, it's just to appease you
'Cause I don't remember what we're fighting for
