VERSE I
I don't want to be the one who's forelorned
and throwned away. I can't keep on counting
sheep all day so my doctor say, but Lord let
me touch the dream I can't seem to wash away
I'm gonna stick it out until it's all over all I
need to do it is pray, oh people-
CHORUS
All we need is time, time is the only answer,
All we need is time, time is the only answer,
VERSE II
Putting two and two together is gonna be a hell-uva
you see cuz all I can do is provide
the lines with words and harmony. I can't eat
and I can't sleep when I feel what I think aint
right but when I think I've an idea comin' I
hold on with all my might. So let me tell you
VERSE III
By the way I heard somebody say that time
waits for no one, I guess it's true when
you're sitting around just twiddling your
thumb, you know I've been and oh I've seen
some sad things in my day and time I can't
let the same thang happen to me that
happen to some friends of mine.
