If Time Is All I Have Lyrics
[Verse 1]
When you wake up
Turn your radio on
And you'll hear this simple song
That I made up
That I made up for you
When you're driving
Turn the radio up
'Cause I can't sing loud enough
Hard these days
To get my message through
[Chorus]
If time is all I have
I'll waste it all on you
Each day I'll turn it back
It's what the broken-hearted do
I'm tired of talking to an empty space
Of silences keeping me awake
[Verse 2]
When you marry
And you look around
I'll be somewhere in that crowd
Torn up, that it isn't me
When you're older
And the memories fade
I know I'll still feel the same
For as long as I live
When you wake up
Turn your radio on
And you'll hear this simple song
That I made up
That I made up for you
When you're driving
Turn the radio up
'Cause I can't sing loud enough
Hard these days
To get my message through
[Chorus]
If time is all I have
I'll waste it all on you
Each day I'll turn it back
It's what the broken-hearted do
I'm tired of talking to an empty space
Of silences keeping me awake
[Verse 2]
When you marry
And you look around
I'll be somewhere in that crowd
Torn up, that it isn't me
When you're older
And the memories fade
I know I'll still feel the same
For as long as I live
[Chorus]
If time is all I have
I'll waste it all on you
Each day I'll turn it back
It's what the broken-hearted do
I'm tired of talking to an empty space
Of silences keeping me awake
[Bridge]
Won't you say my name, one time
Please just say my name
[Chorus]
If time is all I have
I'll waste it all on you
Each day I'll turn it back
It's what the broken-hearted do
I'm tired of talking to an empty space
Of silences keeping awake
If time is all I have
I'll waste it all on you
Each day I'll turn it back
It's what the broken-hearted do
I'm tired of talking to an empty space
Of silences keeping awake
If time is all I have
I'll waste it all on you
Each day I'll turn it back
It's what the broken-hearted do
I'm tired of talking to an empty space
Of silences keeping me awake
[Bridge]
Won't you say my name, one time
Please just say my name
[Chorus]
If time is all I have
I'll waste it all on you
Each day I'll turn it back
It's what the broken-hearted do
I'm tired of talking to an empty space
Of silences keeping awake
If time is all I have
I'll waste it all on you
Each day I'll turn it back
It's what the broken-hearted do
I'm tired of talking to an empty space
Of silences keeping awake
[Outro]
Won't you say my name
When the song is over
Won't you say my name
When the song is over
