lyrics

Well it's time that I got goin',
the conversation's not overflowing
But for one scene inside your dreams all my pride I would forsake
It's the same every Sunday evening
I hit the wine and your words start weaving
spider webs inside my head that my heart just can't escape
I wish I knew how to leave em' all behind
Like all the other troubles on my mind
Or maybe all I need is a change of pace
The glory of the sunshine on my face

Many times I've thought about moving,
thought it's time to quit while I'm losing
My feet don't fit these streets and my eyes have grown so tired
They complain how it's such a pity
to see the buildings but not the city
I came here looking for work, now all I wanna do's get fired,
rob a few banks and live on the run
draw each breath like it's my last one
Or maybe all I need is some time and space
The glory of the sunshine on my face.

Well it's time that I start living,
learn a thing or two about forgiving
I guess I won't get too far until I take one step back
That's why I've-a-started talkin'
to the child inside still walking
barefoot over broken glass with leather boots in his pack
Retracing my steps through the lens of love
and finding there was little to be scared of,
that sometimes pain is a form of grace
like icy cold water in my face

Well it's time that we start loving
They say we gotta house up above in
heaven where the weather is fair and strangers arms embrace
But for now I guess that I'll get going
My heart is just about overflowing
I feel I've got so much to give and so little time to waste
Tell me darling that it's not too late
Give me one more chance and set my paths straight
Cos maybe all I need is some time and space
The glory of the sunshine on my face
Yeah maybe all I need is a change of pace
The glory of the sunshine on my face
