Time for Yourself

You said buying time is useless
when all of the loose ends
get you tied up in knots.
It isn't a question,
but more a suggestion,
that you're supposed to move on.

If apathy befalls you,
and nobody calls you
to see if your heart is alright,
the operation will end the frustration
removing the blinders to fly.

That we didn't see the problems
up until the point that we solved them.
Maybe if we hadn't looked out on the ocean
we wouldn't have fallen in.
Now there's a letter on the shelf,
"Baby you need time for yourself
I'll give it to you."
All the rest seems to logically follow.

So when your station calls you,
please don't let me stall you,
inside I was always prepared.
'Cause when we're together,
in rainier weather,
clouds made our vision impaired.

So we didn't see the problems
up until the point that we solved them.
Maybe if we hadn't looked out on the ocean
it wouldn't have parted, oh.
And now the letter on the shelf says,
"Baby you need time for yourself,
I'll give it to you."
Don't remember how all of it started.

No, we didn't see the problems
up until the point that we solved them
Maybe if we hadn't looked out on the ocean
we wouldn't have fallen in.
Now there's a letter on the shelf,
"Baby you need time for yourself,
I'll give it to you."
Yeah, the rest seems to logically follow, oh oh...
