Larry Stewart left Restless Heart in late 1991 after the group released the compilation "The Best of Restless Heart." The group then became a quartet and released "Big Iron Horses" in 1992 shortly after which Dave Innis left the group. The group released "Matters of the Heart" in 1994 before splitting up. In 1998, a reunited Restless Heart (minus Innis) recorded three new songs for a Greatest Hits album and then toured with Vince Gill for about a year.
In 2003, all five members reunited and recorded the album "Still Restless" for Koch Nashville in 2004. The record label closed in early 2005 leaving the group without a label. They are still touring and released a live album through their website in August 2007.
Just In Time
Restless Heart Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Broken down and lonely
Broken down to my last dime
No one I could turn to
No where left to run to
I was almost out of time
You reached out and took my hand and suddenly I came alive
[Chorus]
Oh girl you found me just in time
And I still can't believe you're mine
Don't care that I'm a bit delirious
I swear I'm gonna be just fine
You saved me at the stroke of midnight
Girl you found me just in time
It's only fare to warn you
I'm so crazy for you
Think I'm gonna loose control
'Cause every time you're with me
Something in me breaks free
Makes me want to rock and roll
Don't you know I will never ever let you get away
Now that we are together I intend to find a way to make you stay
[Chorus]
Imagine a world where there is never any pain
That's what you are for me
You give me what I'm looking for
You're all I want and so much more
[Chorus]
Who care if I'm a bit deciduous
I know we're gonna be just fine
You saved me at the stroke of midnight
Girl you found me just in time
Oh girl you found me just in time
The lyrics of Restless Heart's "Just in Time" narrate the story of a man who is at his lowest point. He has no one to turn to and is almost broke, feeling lost and out of options. However, there is someone who comes to his rescue at the right moment. A woman appears in his life, the only one to catch his eye, and she takes his hand and breathes new life into him. The song expresses gratitude to this woman who has saved him when he was almost out of time.
The chorus repeats that sentiment, with the singer thanking the woman who found him "just in time." He acknowledges that he may be acting crazy, but he is so grateful to have her in his life. The bridge describes her as someone who can make the pain go away, and he is overjoyed to have found everything he was looking for in her.
The lyrics of "Just in Time" express the idea that sometimes we need the help of others to come out of a difficult situation. The song acknowledges the sense of loss and despair that precedes that moment of help, but it also celebrates the joy and hope that can come from finding someone who can make everything better.
