Sittin' here down by the river
Where we used to play as kids
Didn't think about tomorrow
Didn't care about a thing 

But my smilin' turned to cryin'
All those [bad word] in my head
Oh if I could only lie there
In [bad word] of my bed 

Tell me why I feel this way
I'll never understand
But there's one thing I know for sure
I want to live again 

Time – it takes a little time
To ease the pain inside
To wash my tears away
Time – it takes a little time
Until the ache subsides
Until I smile again like a child 

Little circles on the water
From the tears I hide behind
See my lifeless face reflecting
And can't believe it's mine 

Where's the joy I felt before
The glowing in my eyes
I gotta get it back again
And find some peace of mind 

Time it takes a little time...
