I need to take some time from work
And take some time from school
I need some time from everything
And I need some time from you

I need some time to fly away
across the great blue sea
I need some time 
to find me

I need some time to go outside
in the warmth and light
I need some time to fix the things
that keep me up at night

I need some time to think about
all the time that's gone
I need some time to spend my way
it's over before long

I need some time to fly away
across the great blue sea
I need some time 
to find me

I need some time to look upon
all the things gone wrong
I need some time to figure out
how to end my song

I need some time to have a dream
of all I wish could be
Then I need some time to be awake
and deal with what I see

I need some time to fly away
across the great blue sea

I need some time 
I need some time 
I need some time

I just need some time

so can't you let me be?
