Take My Time

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
In my time of feeling bad
Oh what I'd give
Just to relive
All of the good times that I've had.
In my time of sorrow
In my time of feeling alone
I could ease my mind
With thoughts of just being on my own.
Changes of life
I'm going through
Keep me from doing
What I know I should do.
In my time of sorrow
In my time where teardrops fall
I can't tell you why
I don't want to try,
But the time has come
For me to say fare well.
In my time of sorrow
In my time of sorrow
In my time of sorrow
