Lately, I’ve been running in circles
Lately, I’ve been trying too hard
I haven’t been home long enough
To get what I want
To get what I want
 
I keep it close, more than it crossed my mind
Just give me a lot more time
 
Lately, I’ve been leaving traces
Lately, I’ve been writing letters and lists
I haven’t been home long enough
To get what I want
To get what I want
I keep it close, more than it crossed my mind
I’m waiting for that light to shine
I keep it close, more than it crossed my mind
Just give me a little more time
 
I took the long way home
Over the lake and into the woods
So watch me, watch me disappear
Between the trees, my mind is crystal clear
Just give me a little more time
Time
 
I took the long way home
Over the tracks and past his house
But where oh where would the lantern lead
I walk until it hits me
Just give me a little more time
