Lyrics Joan Armatrading

Joan Armatrading

Spend A Little Time

I've been waking up every morning

Not one ray of sunshine through my pane

I've been sleeping wrapped warm in sadness, yeah

Not a smile upon my face

Until one day

Glad day

That you came along

I've been singing this song

Trying to chase the frown away

Hear me singing now, sadness

I can't be with you

I don't need your hand no more

Laughter, I'd like to be with you

Why don't you come knocking, knocking

Knocking at my door

Oh I'd like to spend a little time, baby

By your fire

I'd like to spend a little time, baby

By your door

And if he calls me, smile on baby

I'll come running, oh yeah yeah

Just to spend a little time, baby

By your door
