I know it's not your but I'm a locked door And inside, I'm a mess by someone before And I wish that I, I could find a key To unlock all the things you want us to be Let me open up and start again, But there's a safe around my heart I know how to let you in, That's what keeps us apart And that's why I need time. I said I need you, I need you to understand, you, you I need you to understand, you, you, you
Call up the locksmith, Tell him we need him quick got a million keys, None of them seem to fit While your on the phone, Call up the clocksmith, 'Cause could use some time, Even the slightest bit
Let me open up and start again, And break this safe around my heart I don't know how to let you in, And that's what keeps apart that's why I need time I said I need you I need you to understand, you, you, you I need you to understand, you, you, you
I'm thinking now's the time, Maybe its time to go, if I gave you heart, be gentle, I'm tired of laying low, lets give the world a show And when you know, you know, And when you know, you know, you know And when you know, you you know, you know And that's why I need time
I said I need you, need you to understand, you, you, you (x2) I need you to understand (x4) I need you (x3) I need you, you, you
