A little time (Heaton/Rotheray)

 

I need a little time

To think it over

I need a little space

Just on my own

I need a little time

To find my freedom

I need a little...

 

Funny how quick the milk turns sour

Isn't it, isn't it

Your face has been looking like that for hours

Hasn't it, hasn't it

Promises, promises turn to dust

Wedding bells just turn to rust

Trust into mistrust

 

I need a little room

To find myself

I need a little space

To work it out

I need a little room

All alone

I need a little...

 

You need a little room for your big head

Don't you, don't you

You need a little space for a thousand beds

Won't you, won't you

Lips that promise - fear the worst

Tongue so sharp - the bubble burst

Just into unjust

 

I've had a little time

To find the truth

Now I've had a little room

To check what's wrong

I've had a little time

And I still love you

I've had a little...

 

You had a little time

And you had a little fun

Didn't you, didn't you

While you had yours

Do you think I had none

Do you, do you

The Freedom that you wanted bad

Is yours for good

I hope you're glad

Sad into unsad

 

I had a little time

To think it over

Had a little room

To work it out

I found a little courage

To call it off

 

I've had a little time

I've had a little time

I've had a little time

I've had a little time
