Catriona Irving Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

It′s not that i don't mind,
It′s just that i need
A little time...

Oh, stop for a minute
I don't get...

It's oh oh oh
It′s oh oh oh

It′s not that i don't mind,
It′s just that i need
A little time...

Oh, stop for a minute
I don't get.

It′s oh oh oh
It's oh oh oh

It′s a long time coming along
Coming a long time, coming along

It's a long time coming along
Coming a long time, coming along

It's not that i don′t mind,
It′s just that i need
A little time...





Stop for a minute
I don't get...

The lyrics "It's not that I don't mind, it's just that I need a little time" imply that the singer cares about the other person but needs some distance, while the repetition of "Oh, stop for a minute, I don't get" might show frustration with the other person not understanding their need for space. The repetition of "It's oh oh oh" could represent the singer's desire for simplicity and ease in the relationship, while the next lines "It's a long time coming along, coming a long time, coming along" might suggest that the relationship has been difficult or complicated for a while.


Overall, the song seems to be about the struggle of balancing the desire for closeness and connection with the need for personal space and individuality in a relationship.

History & The Victors

Caught in a word
rolling it around in my mouth since I heard
Tripped in a pause
about to swallow up through the hole in the floor

It’s not that I don’t mind, it’s just I need a little time
It’s not that I don’t mind, it’s just I need a little time

Stop for a minute, I don’t care who’s in it
your head chose, and your heart knows
If there’s a rhyme or a reason that’s got you believing your own show
you should say so, oh oh oh

Trapped by a look
it doesn’t take a glance to be misunderstood
Freed by a sound
forming up the word I’ve been rolling around

It’s not that I don’t mind, it’s just I need a little time
It’s not that I don’t mind, it’s just I need a little time

Stop for a minute, I don’t care who did it
your head chose, and your heart knows
If there’s a rhyme or a reason that’s got you believing your own show
you should say so, oh oh oh

It’s a long time coming, a long time coming, a long time coming along
It’s a long time coming, a long time coming, a long time coming along

It’s not that I don’t mind, it’s just I need a little time
It’s not that I don’t mind, it’s just I need some time

Stop for a minute, I don’t care who’s in it
your head chose, and your heart knows
If there’s a rhyme or a reason that’s got you believing your own show
you should say so, oh oh oh

Stop.

❤️
