The Woodentops A Little More Time lyrics

She carries the sun in a honey-skinned
Palm trees still rustle in her breezy hair
And in her eyes some mystery that keeps me there
And her looking out to sea, soul's there

She would've lived for ever where her heart was broken
In some ladies' man snare
She tasted her dream and it cracked her like where she started

Just a little more time
Just a little more time
Don't want this window to close
Just a little more time
Another glass of wine
Don't want this window to close

Talking is easy, far from the fireflies
Yes, I'd like to wake with a whisper to her ear
Yes, I know I'd be in jail, too

I met her years ago and the poetry flooded art
We made love with words, kept the right distance
And together should be so


…just a world that goes, a crowding crowd that dream
And you can't keep this perfect creature in some box

Just a little more time
Just a little more time
Don't want this window to close
Just a little more time
Another glass of wine
Don't want this window to close

Just a little more time
A little more time
Don't want this window to close
Just a little more time
Another glass of wine
Don't want this window to close

Talking is easy, far from the fireflies
Yes, I'd like to wake with a whisper to her ear
Yes, I know I'd be in jail, too
