Story Behind The Song
I came to the realisation that a negative relationship and situation had to be let go of. My song 'Time' was my way of expressing my feelings at the time.
Song Description
Written on acoustic guitar with a haunting ambient style production and a clear sounding emotional main vocal, this song has a mysterious feel to it with a powerful catchy chorus done with harmonies. The lyrics are about feeling stuck in time and feeling frustrated and numb. I came to the realisation that a negative relationship situation had to be let go of. Time was being wasted and I needed to move on.

Lyrics
Take a look inside
what can you find
in spite of it all
something I don't like
something that's not right
inside my soul
I wait so patiently so silent in my sleep
Time takes me over over and I know
I've got to let this go
Time takes me under under and I know
I've got to let this go
I've got to let this go
You pull me to the left side
then you pull me to the right
and now I'm back to the start
in through the light
out through the dark
and now where's my heart
now where's my heart
now where's my heart
I wait so patiently so silent in my sleep
Time takes me over over and I know
I've got to let this go
Time takes me under under and I know
I've got to let this go
Time takes me over over and I know
I've got to let this go
Like a fool I cry
and I ask myself why
I can't find the answer
for closing my eyes
to my soul
but now I know
Time takes me over over and I know
I've got to let this go
Time takes me under under and I know
I've got to let this go
Time takes me over over and I know
I've got to let this go
Time takes me over over and I know
I've got to let this go
I've got to let this go
got to let this go
