Yeah, it might be all that you get
Yeah, I guess this might well be it
If you slow down for a second, take your time
You know I’m yours if you remember that you’re mine
And when everybody’s telling me I have no time, I prove ’em wrong again
Yeah, it might be all that you get
Yeah, I guess this might well be it
But heaven knows I’ve tried
Know my hands won’t be tied down
And I will not lay them down ’cause I can finally see the truth
So simple but so clear
Accepting an ocean’s depths were out of reach for me and you
If you’re coming up for air, breathing in
You know I’ll be there when you first begin
And when everybody’s telling us we have no time, we’ll prove ’em wrong again
‘Cause yeah, it might be all that you get
Yeah, I guess this might well be it
But heaven knows I’ve tried
And heaven knows I’ve tried
