I Need Time

Words and Music by Bill Richards and Brian May


Time never was my best friend
To the end it will try to catch me out
Even the light of sunrise hurts my eyes
Don't know what each day's about

I need time and in time I'll catch up with the rest
I'll do my best as long as I can take my
Time to work out where I've gone somehow wrong
In the life that was so good

People shall tax me so fast till I blast
I don't know a thing I should

I need time and in time I'll catch up with the rest
I'll do my best as long as I can take my
Time to recall happiness lest I lose it all

Time to start sorting my brain into lanes
Simply must break through that wall
Now on the stage spinning plates, as it takes
And he finds he has them all

I need time and in time I'll catch up with the rest
I'll do my best as long as I can take my time

Time to sit back think it out, round about
Without running everywhere
And if I get in their way they'll just say
It's your life why should we care

I need time and in time I'll catch up with the rest
I'll do my best as long as I can take my time
