"Matter Of Time" lyrics

"Matter Of Time"

Sit me alone
Sit me in silence
Please, sit me in sunshine
If you showed me your guidance
I was nowhere before
I was nowhere 'til
I'm sick to my back teeth
So please, sit me still

Crushed underneath
The weight of myself
The words best remembered
Might be fit and well
Stared out the big window
For an hour or so
Dad where is my mother?
Oh, she's over the road

Still crushed underneath
The weight of this hell
It's a long way to fall
If you're all by yourself (ooh)

But we're not alone (ooh)
We're not alone

Just a matter of time, just a matter of time
Girl, I know you'll shine, shine, shine
Just a matter of time
Just a matter of time
Girl, I know you'll shine, shine, shine

I'm there in your bones
We share the same heart
You brought me my spirit
Now we're never apart
Always thinking of you
Dreaming of when
You conquer the world
Again and again

Together 'til I'm ready to go
And you'll do the same
And the wind will still blow
Always crushed underneath
Through weight of my love
'Cause the weight of your happiness
It's never too much (ooh)

You're not alone (ooh)
You're not alone

Just a matter of time, just a matter of time
Girl, I know you will shine, shine, shine
It's just a matter of time, just a matter of time
Girl, I know you will shine, shine, shine

Love like your mother
And you'll do just fine
Walkin' through fire
I walk one step behind

I know what I know
You learn as you go
But the one thing I'm sure of
It's a matter of time

Love like your mother
And you'll do just fine
Walkin' through fire
I walk one step behind

I know what I know
You learn as you go
But the one thing I'm sure of
It's a matter of time, hey

Love like your mother
And you'll do just fine
Walkin' through fire
I walk one step behind

Love like your mother
And you'll do just fine
Walkin' through fire
I walk one step behind

Love like your mother
And you'll do just fine
Walkin' through fire
I walk one step behind

I know what I know
You learn as you go
But the one thing I'm sure of
But the one thing I'm sure of
It's a matter of time
