"Time" lyrics - SARAH MCLACHLAN

Time here
All but means nothing
Just shadows that move 'cross the wall
They keep me company
But they don't ask of me
They don't say nothing at all

I need just a little more silence
I need just a little more time

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 to reopen a sore

Leave me be I don't wanna argue
I just get confused and I 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
To have me to hold me
A token for all to see
Captured to be yours alone

I need just a little more silence
Yeah I need just a little more time

The courage to pull away
There will be hell to pay
Deeper you cut to the bone

Leave me be I don't wanna argue
I just get confused and I 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 'cross the wall
They keep me company
But they don't ask of me
They don't say nothing at all

So leave me be I don't wanna argue
I just get confused and I come all undone
If I agree well it's just to appease you
'Cause I don't remember what we're fighting for
