"A Matter Of Time" lyrics - SHOOTER JENNINGS

If I go crazy or if I pull through
It's only a matter of time
Till I lose my reason, the way I lost you
It's only a matter of time

Frauline, I miss climbing your vines
You know, just one taste of your fruit
And I grow as high as the tall, tall pines

And if I go crazy or if I pull through
It's only a matter of time
Till I lose my reason, I've already lost you
It's only a matter of time

I'm fine, honey, I'm not losing my mind
I'm just watching the bubbles as I sink and they fly
Become one with the blue sky

If I go crazy or if I pull through
It's only a matter of time
For I hit bottom, the bottle hit his bottom too
It's only a matter of time

Wake up in the morning and grab my piece
Put my clothes in my bag and in my hair some grease
Blast a little bit of water on my face and I'm on the run
It's been three long days since I seen your face
And I never thought I'd ever wanna leave this place
But no matter how far I run ain't far enough

It's just a matter of time
Before I lose my mind
And now I give just grind
And the only time I rest is when I sleep

There's blood in the rug where you punched my nose
And I'm singin' these songs at all my shows
Heaven only knows you're still around
I see your friends when I'm out on the town
When I talk about us I try to keep it down
What goes around, honey, you know it's got me down

It's just a matter of time
Before I lose my mind
Now that your sun don't shine
The only time I rest is when I sleep

It's just a matter of time
It's just a matter of time
Oh, it's just a matter of time
Oh, it's just a matter of time
Oh, it's just a matter of time
Matter of time
Matter of time
