Time

By Heather Wise

Lyrics

I’m trying to find
Some time and space to rest my mind 

I’m trying to give
So much that I can’t live
I’m trying to be
Someone other than me 

I’m trying to learn
But so far I’ve been burned
I’m trying to feel
My way to being real

Don’t worry
Don’t hurry
Time is on your side

Don’t worry
Don’t hurry
Time to be alive 

I’m trying to move
Beyond my need to prove
Some days I win
Some days I can’t begin

Story

The band wanted to do this song.  The only reason I can think that I didn’t was because it was too personal at the time when I wrote it and I didn’t know how to do it.  But they got it.
