Lyrics
A MATTER OF TIME
Never knew an empty room
Could be so crowded with reminders of you
Blue jeans and broken dreams that you left behind
In only a matter of time
Never knew the creaks in these old floors
Could sound just like you walking through my door
Someday I?ll stop waiting for what never will arrive
But it?s just a matter of time
Chorus:
A matter of time it crawls along at its own pace
And each day that passes leaves me in the same place
And I know I should get up and get on with my life
But it?s just a matter of time
Never knew how quickly love could change
From sweet words to a knife that turns pleasure to pain
And I swear I?ll never put my beat up heart back on the line
But I know it?s just a matter of time
Chorus:
