I need a little time, to think it over.
I need a little space, just on my own.
I need a little time, to find my freedom.
I need a little...
(It’s) Funny how quick the milk turns sour,
(1)___ _ __,
___ _ _?
Your face has been looking like that for hours,
(2)____ _ __,
____ _ __?
Promises, promises, turn to dust;
Wedding bells just turn to rust;
Trust into mistrust.
I need a little room, to find myself.
I need a little space, to work it out.
I need a little room, all alone.
I need a little....
You need a little room for your big head,
(3)___ _ ___, ___ _ ___?
You’ll need a little space for a thousand beds,
(4)___ _ ___, ___ _ ___?
Lips that promise, fear the worst,
Tongue so sharp the bubble burst.
Just into unjust.
I’ve had a little time, to find the truth.
Now I’ve had a little time, to check what’s wrong.
I’ve had a little time, and I still love you.
I’ve had a little...
You had a little time and you had a little fun,
(5)____ _ ___,
____ _ __?
While you had yours do you think I had none?
Do you, do you?
The freedom that you wanted bad(ly), is yours for
good,
I hope you’re glad:
Sad into ‘unsad’
I had a little time, to
think it (6)____
I had a little room, to work it (7)___
I found a little courage, to call it (8)___.
I’ve had a little time.
I’ve had a little time.
I’ve had a little time.
I’ve had a little time.
