"Buy A Little Time" lyrics

"Buy A Little Time"

Looking like another long night
I'm fading in the dying light
Everybody's gonna get their shots in
So give me just a little time

The air was changing as the sun set
The boys were looking for a fight
The owner looked up from behind the bar
Said you better take that shit outside

I never asked for nothing easy
Never wanted a way out no

Seemed everything was not enough
I could see it in her eyes
I could see it in her eyes
I let her down but I could make it up
I just need a little time
Just need a little time
Just need a way to buy a little time

I told her I ain't going nowhere
I know she's everything I'm not
Home is anywhere that little girl is now
My love for her is all I got

I never asked for nothing easy
Never wanted a way out no

Seemed everything was not enough
I could see it in her eyes
I could see it in her eyes
I let her down but I could make it up
I just need a little time
Just need a little time
Just need a way to buy a little time

Looking like another long shot
We been through it all before
Taken my fair share of kicks when I'm down
Now I can take a couple more

I never asked for nothing easy
Never wanted a way out no

Seemed everything was not enough
I could see it in her eyes
I could see it in her eyes
I let her down but I could make it up
I just need a little time
Just need a little time
Just need a way to buy a little time

Seems all I had was not enough
I could see it in her eyes
I could see it in her eyes
Won't let her down again my love
I just need a little time
Just need a little time
Just need a way to buy a little time
