Matter of Time

[Verse 1]
Smile on the drive home
Do you know I adore ya?
You won my loyalty at 23 and
I'd do anything for ya
Smile at the skyline
LA to Georgia
I open my mouth and the words spill out
And I got no answers for ya

[Chorus]
Can we just stop
And take a step back now?
The hands on a clock
Will not stay locked as we had thought
And they just spin round and round
So can we just stop
And say you're mine, mine?
What we want and what we've got will collide
It's only a matter of time
It's only a matter of time

[Verse 2]
You tell me I'm special
You told me I'm cool
Told me the kids all lied if they all tried
To say otherwise at school
And you, tell me I'm something
Somebody you'd choose
I see the kids ride past and they fly fast
'Cause they've got nothing to lose
But I've got you, so

[Chorus]
Stop
And take a step back now
The hands on a clock
Will not stay locked as we had thought
And they just spin round and round
So can we just stop
And won't you say you're mine, mine, mine?
What we want and what we've got will collide
It's only a matter of time

[Bridge]
Sit with me beneath the big oak tree
Where you would swing as a kid
I'll pretend I never heard you say 'I love you' but I did
Where were you when I was 14 at the county fair alone?
It's funny that's how things go

[Chorus]
So can we just stop
And take a step back now?
The hands on a clock
Will not stay locked as we had thought
And they just spin round and round
So can we just stop, can we just stop, can we just stop
And say you're mine, mine?
What we want and what we've got will collide
What we want and what we've got will collide
What we want and what we've got will collide
It's only a matter of time
It's only a matter of time

It's always a matter of time
