Jen Chapin - Little Hours lyrics

I like to linger in the closing of eyes Before I snatch up the prize of sweet slumber I like to linger in the cool of the gra** When I fall on my a** in the dew So do you -- like to linger To twirl time round your finger Though the world tries to push you into tight little hours Little hours I like to linger when the party is dying And I'm the only one trying to have fun I like to flip through all my pages of past Make all my stories last forever Did you ever live to linger? To twirl time round your finger? Though the world tries to push you into tight little hours? Little hours I could live a whole life Of play-by-plays Of why-didn't-I-says Of yesterdays My sense of progress has me going in circles Just one step forward can take the whole day I'm here in nowhere there's still so much to see Maybe nowhere is my place to be Maybe nowhere is my place to be Don't you see the need to linger? To twirl time round you finger? Though the world tries to push you into tight little hours? Little hours
