about

When you have been broken hearted by the ending of a close relationship... Years later this reflective, wistful piano ballad sends a respectful nod to the past. Things do move on but you never stop forgetting and nor should you. Wherever you are I hope you're ok. Today.

lyrics

TIME ON MY HANDS

Ive spent a long afternoon
in an archiving room
filing pictures of you
are you sorry?

I still remember that place
we walked for miles on the shore
you're staring into my face
now I've got time on my hands

out across the room its such a lonely empty place
that never reveals a clear way
and if I were to say to you I don't regret a thing
Im hoping you'd feel the same way
I'm here today, here today

what you said would come through
I never open up it's true
and with the sun on my face
now I've got time on my hands

I want to tell you my truth
and I'll admit it here to you
but what's the use
if you're not listening?

out across the room its such a lonely empty place
that never reveals a clear way
and if I were to say to you I don't regret a thing
Im hoping you'd feel the same way
I'm here today, here today

out across the room its such a lonely empty place
that never reveals a clear way
and if I were to say to you I don't regret a thing
Im hoping you'd feel the same way
I'm here today
I hope you're ok
today
