about

Its been a long time between drinks - this is my second song for 2012.

Its about a relationship of sorts and its in 7/8 - what more could you want to know. Oh, and I'm playing/singing everything.

Hope you find it amusing :)

lyrics

Time On My Hands
©2012 Neil Porter

I got time on my hands
My place in the sun
So much to do but it never gets done
I made some mistakes
And they play on my heart
So much to do but I don’t seem to start

I just have to have some clear direction
When there’s no reason I’m all at sea
Sometimes I get it right
Give in without a fight
Maybe I’ll give it all away

Doing my best with your obsessions
Sometimes they’re pushing me away
Sometimes I get it right
Give in without a fight
Maybe I’ll give it all away

I lived a life of inhibition
Taking no chances – that’s not me
Sometimes I get it right
Give in without a fight
Maybe I’ll give it all away

So you can see the contradiction
Nose on your face as plain as day
Sometimes I get it right
Give in without a fight
Maybe I’ll give it all away

Maybe I’ll give it all away
