A Little More Time

by Keenan O'Meara

on If I Could Leave (2020)

[Keenan: Tape point 1-7-0]

[Instrumental]

[Verse 1]
I am moving through the universe
Just like everyone else
I don't know why I struggle
With the feeling that I'm all by myself

[Hook]
It's a typical grievance, it's an ancient complaint
Men better than me, have been driven insane

[Verse 2]
Have I moved far enough yet?
To be granted some wisdom, to be granted grace
I've had dreams where I'm old and I'm bitter and grey
And gravestones whisper it was always that way
I had a dream where I laid there {?}
I knew you'd find your peace at the very same time

ooooo oooo oo ooo

[Hook 2]
Hold on one minute, please stop the tapes
I can see clearly, I can see all my mistakes

[Chorus]
If only I had just a little more time
I could fix everything, I could make it alright
If only I had just a little more time
I could straighten my heart, I could get along fine

oooooo oooooo ooo

[Outro]
If only I had just a little more time
If only I had just a little more time
If only I had just a little more time
If only I had, If only I had
If only I had just a little more tiiiiiiiime
