Cost of Time Lyrics

Spent the whole night crying

Just from thinking of you

Left with no desires yet

Conflicted through and through

Your words they moved right through me

Like the paper on the pen

Laundry list of boxes and their walls are caving in

Oh my lady whispered to me

Won't you grow up and be the man I need

I tried I tried to rectify

And couldn't find a way

But maybe I'll be back someday

Parted ways right there and then

No kiss with her goodbye

Just subtleties and memories to get me through the night

And suddenly it hit me that it's now or never man

Just write your songs and sing along

And put it in His hands

Oh my lady whispered to me

Won't you grow up and be the man I need

I tried I tried to rectify

And couldn't find a way

But maybe I'll be back someday

Her silhouette has changed

But damn those eyes they never lie

An act of God, an answered prayer

A moment so divine

For surely it is worth it

To have loved and to have lost

A second chance at true romance

Means time is just the cost

Oh my lady whispered to me

Boy you grew up into the man I need

I tried I tried to rectify

And finally found my way

I told you I'd be back someday
