In My Own Time
Delta Goodrem Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

So much is happening to me.
So much that I can't even see.
So many words of wisdom that I am trying to be.
Catch me if I should fall.
And even more so while I'm standing tall.

My head is spinning around and it's making me dizzy.
I'm spinning around and it's making me ill.
You don't understand what I'm going through just to find a way to climb.
It'll be in my own time.
It'll be in my own time.

Whispering thoughts in all different ways.
That I'm in a daze.
My head is spinning around and it's making me dizzy.
I'm spinning around and it's making me ill.
You don't understand what I'm going through just to find a way to climb.

It'll be in my own time.
Cause it'll be in my own time.
In my own time.
In my own time I'll take a chance.
In my own time I'll find romance. In my own time.

It'll be mine.
After the clouds there'll be the rain.




After the sun there'll be the moon it doesn't matter.
Cause it'll be in my own time

Delta, I am so utterly proud of you for picking up the guitar, as you told us you'd love to do One Day. Procrastination seems to be a bad habit you have broken. (Unfortunately, not the case for all of us...) I love the track. It's not my fave of your's, but the lyrics are great. It's still cruisy, which I dig.
I can't play piano as I use a MIDI keyboard, as an electronic musician, and it's tap-tap-rebound crap is annoying, but gets the data in. I can strum though; as far as rhythm goes, I'm pretty good (won some VSMA awards as a teen for my drumming, so it plowed rhythm into my noggin'), but yeah, I'm rambling on to a youtube comment which nobody will ever read. But again, I'm proud of you!
