lyrics

Now I need time on my own
If I say to you I need time on my own
Just to push me through
I see time on my shelf
There to hold my days
I feel time on my hands
And it makes me say

Luck runs thin
But patience will pay to the ones who wait
One tree searches the sky
It's coming to quench its grace
Yes, we are what we are
This I'm glad to say
It's me certainly you
And its here we stay

Everybody plays the fool
Sometimes as a rule
Rule right as the king
Same thing
You pull the trigger
Everybody makes the grade
Sometimes we're afraid
But I'll give you roses it you give me roses

Maybe its time
Maybe I'm late
Maybe you're there
Maybe you'll wait
One thing's for sure
We are what's in store

I feel light slip in my skin
And reflect this page I fill without a word
Just the voice I save to see
Without a clue is the price I pay
When we are what we are
And remain this way

One - in a word, I can send you the flowers for
Two - fisted fool, by the pool
When I feel it coming up
Three - You and me and the earth that replaces my
Floor - what's it for?
I can never see the meaning of it coming up
Five golden rings
Fix - me some tricks by the light of the slippery
Seven - on the dice would be nice
But I never see it coming up
Eight - is a crowd when there's no dogs allowed so it's
Nine - all mine and it's coming up
Roses
