Story Behind The Song
When I was studying to finish my PhD and pushing hard to get a record deal, it placed a lot of strain on my relationship. I was too scared of missing a career opportunity to back off work, but I was also scared of losing my wife for not giving her enough attention.

Lyrics
V1
One thing or another stands in our way
Another demand, another command to obey
No space to create, another mistake
I miss you, I miss you
New revisions to make, more silence to break
I wish you, I wish you could take this all away
CHORUS
Just a little more time
A little more time to feel your arms around me
Just a little more time
A little more time to feel like you still love me
Just a little more time, a little more time
v2
Opportunities waste when you don't accept
Responsibility changes the way that you take and reject
No place to turn back, I'm on the wrong track
I miss you, I miss you
No license to breathe, no chance to receive
I wish you, I wish you were here to cover me
REPEAT CHORUS
BRIDGE
Working for a world that doesn't care
Hoping for some time that we could share
Frightened cos you might not still be there
REPEAT CHORUS
