Lyrics Sarah Mclachlan

Sarah Mclachlan

Time

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 silence

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,

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 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
