Space Lyrics - Pam Tillis

I'm stuck in a concrete canyon traffic jam 

Can't part the red light sea 

I set sail on this asphalt river 

Five o'clock rush hour, no one's gettin' anywhere 

Staring at a billboard of the American dream 

I need space; stand back and let me breathe 

I need air washing over me 

I need time to see, to feel, to be 

I can love you more when I'm free 

Like a star, like an ocean, like the branches on a tree 

Like a crown, like a rocket, like an eagle, what I need is: space 

Space 

Well your heart wraps around me like fingers holding tight 

And you call it love 

I fell for a wind chasin' cowboy 

The sky was wide open, you said we were going for it 

promised me no fences; this one went up 

I need space; stand back and let me breathe 

I need air washing over me 

I need time to see, to feel, to be 

I can love you more when I'm free 

Like a star, like an ocean, like the branches on a tree 

Like a crown, like a rocket, like an eagle, what I need is: space 

Space 

Alone makes me wanna be with you 

All I want is a chance to miss you 

I need space; stand back and let me breathe 

I need air washing over me 

I need time to see, to feel, to be 

I can love you more when I'm free 

Like a star, like an ocean, like the branches on a tree 

Like a crown, like a rocket, like an eagle, what I need 

Like a prayer, like a motion, like a crashing water fall 

Like a ship, like a secret, like a herd, all I need is: space 

Space 

Stand back and let me breathe 

Oh I need space 

(male voice: sorry)
