Space and Time
Surface Of The Sun Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Just a little more
We could do with a little time
Circumstances aren't the same
Beliefs and thoughts will collide
How did we grow so differently
It's still alright
It's still alright
Just a little more
All I need is a little time
To see you smile again
To see that you're alright
Has change come willingly
I hope it has
I hope it has
Just a little more
All I need is a little time
To embrace the change that's come
To embrace what is mine
This change has come unwillingly




I hate this part
I hate this part
