Time Spent Lyrics

The time I spent looking for you

Took me down a road I didn't know

As luck wouldn't have it, wouldn't have it at all

Yes monsters waited for me at every turn

Yes I could have been left alone with my fear

It wasn't very likely anyone would appear

Oh the door was never open very wide

Yes I was mostly hiding deep inside

Things pull us around like leaves in the wind

Breaking the cycle is what makes you win

It comes slowly to the silent and the weak

The strong roar loudly and reach the peak

Oh going back never works at all

Brings the dark with it before the fall

Fortune claims its victims from the stream

Where the minds of the broken hearted dream

Too many days without any hope

Love is the tonic that helps you cope

It leaves the best of itself behind

In the hearts of the ones it finds

Things pull us around like leaves in the wind

Breaking the cycle is what makes you win

It comes slowly to the silent and the weak

The strong roar loudly and reach the peak

Maybe there's nothing, nothing to show

For looking for gold at the end of the rainbow

But that won't stop me, stop me trying again

Yes that's where the power, the power really is

Yes the springtime will surely come, come again

It won't disappear like the verses I sing

There is something more that I need to see

It's like the distance between you and me

Things pull us around like leaves in the wind

Breaking the cycle is what makes you win

It comes slowly to the silent and the weak

The strong roar loudly and reach the peak
