We'll Make Time Lyrics - Hawksley Workman

I never cried so much 

You've been taking me apart 

You gonna put me back together? 

Gonna start me from the start? 

I've been wrecking my blood 

Been wrecking my brains 

I been killing my heart 

I've been living in the pain 

Cause when we fight sometimes 

When we're clawing at each other 

Got to think it's all for something at the end of all the trouble 

Gonna build something to last 

Not to let it crumble fast 

Want to be the ones left standing 

After all the time has passed 

And if I'm feeling unplugged 

Feeling swept under the rug 

Need to hold the lantern for me 

Need to pick me back up 

Want to remember all the things that we said we want to do 

Don't want to start to pull away 

Cause it's easier to do 

When you look at something ugly that you thought you hid away 

When it's coming back to haunt you on an unsuspecting day 

We're going to be the harbor where we can just tie our little boats 

A place to fight off all the lions that keep gnashing at our throats 

Everybody that we trust says it's harder than it looks 

Something good's a constant struggle when there's a tree there to be shook 

Better believe the wind will blow 

It'll try to push you down 

It'll try to pull your roots 

And leave you lying on the ground... 

We'll make time though there ain't that much time 

Oh and we'll make love in the middle of the night... 

I hope we're older someday 

And we've grown so much 

I hope that we still feel the warmth there 

In our kiss and in our touch 

Cause the world is against you 

When you're after something true 

It ain't the fashion to be faithful 

Even though it's hard to do 

And it's confusing sometimes 

Cause even the good ones fall away 

You have to keep the fire burning every night and every day 

I know we're corny, old fashioned 

Is forever really true? 

But when I say that you're for me 

And baby, baby I'm for you 

And though the grass is always greener but you still have to cut it 

And the scars you get together 

Are the scars you really covet 

And at night when we are lovers 

And we're mucking up the covers 

And it's all about our eyes 

And we've forgotten all the others 

When we're laying there in silence 

In the comfort and the quiet 

And you hold me as we fall asleep 

In the coldness of the night 

And though we say it on the phone 

Out in public or alone 

And then we write it down in letters 

When the other one's not home...
