Okkervil River - Sleep & Wake-Up Songs

Just Give Me Time

This red-haired girl of mine
Tore a pine cone from the pine
To cut into her palm
Singing the song her sinking lover sung
I shut my eyes
Ripped the train from off the line, but a sudden gust of snow
Blew through a hole in my girl's clothes

Well, my girl knows she's not all right
And I don't mind
Just give me time
Just give me time, oh, baby
Baby, give me time

Her stinging eyes
And her 16-hour drive, and our shared, transparent rope
And our icy dive through hope, I'll memorize
And I'll cut into my mind
I can't believe it can be so
I won't believe that my girl froze

Well, my girl knows
That I'm coiled tight and green inside
Just give me time
Just give me time, oh, baby
Baby, give me time

And that weight you hold, it's getting light
And, love, I know you'll lift it easily up high
Just give him time, just give him time
Baby, give me time
Oh, baby

Just give me time, just give me time
Just give me time, just give me time
Just give me time, just give me time (ahh)
Just give me time, just give me time (ahh)
