Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I need a little time, to think it over
I need a little space, just on my own
I need a little time, to find my freedom
I need a little
[Verse 2]
Funny how quick the milk turns sour, isn't it, isn't it?
(Isn't it, isn't it?)
Your face has been looking like that for hours, hasn't it, hasn't it?
(Hasn't it, hasn't it?)
Promises, promises turn to dust
Wedding bells just turn to rust
Trust into mistrust
[Verse 3]
I need a little room, to find myself
I need a little space, to work it out
I need a little room, all alone
I need a little
[Verse 4]
Need a little room for your big head, don't ya, don't ya?
(Don't ya, don't ya?)
You need a little space for a thousand beds, won't ya, won't ya?
(Won't ya, won't ya?)
Lips that promise, fear the worst
Tongue so sharp, the bubble burst
Just into injust
[Verse 5]
I had a little time, to find the truth
I had a little room to check what's wrong
I had a little time, and I still love you
I had a little
[Verse 6]
You had a little time and you had a little fun, now, didn't ya, didn't ya?
(Didn't ya, didn't ya?)
While you had yours, do you think I had none, now, do ya, do ya?
(Do ya, do ya?)
[Verse 7]
Freedom that you wanted back
Is yours for good, I hope you're glad
Sad into unsad
[Verse 8]
I had a little time, to think it over
I had a little room, to work it out
I found a little courage, to call it off
I had a little time
[Verse 9]
I've had a little time
I've had a little time
I've had a little time
