I Need Time

Donna Summer · I'm A Rainbow [1996]

Five to nine

Early Sunday morning around breakfast time

I heard a sudden tapping at the kitchen door

Oh, and there was more, well, it was you I saw



No mistake

I knew you'd come around that sad look on your face

Then you begged me to come in and I said yes

Oh, what a fool I am, I should have turned away



I need time

To turn the time around

To let it all hang out

To fight my fear and fight my doubt



I need time

To turn the time around

(Get a hold)

Of love

Spoken words don't mean enough



No mistake

Remember not to break the promise that you make

I'll meet you fifty fifty in the middle now

And I won't back out there'd better be no doubt



I need time

To turn the time around

Little did I know that

Love would bring you to my door



I need time

To turn the time around

Little did I know that

Love was on our side



I love you, you know I

You know I always will love you now

I know I do love you

You know I'll always be true to you my love



Here you stand

Torn up yellow T-shirt and guitar in hand

I wanna love you now

Oh, forget the past, I wanna make love last



I need time

To turn the time around

Let it all hang out

Love will bring you back again



I need time

To turn the time around

Little did I know that

Love will bring you back again
