A Time For Wanting
i keep my hart on my sleeve
keep the rest to my self
i want the book
that is not on the shelve
i want love
i want money
i want anything
i cant have
i want the card
that is not on my hand
i want to win
everything i can
everyone knows
when its time to give up
but that not me
i keep coughing up
i keep my life simple
i keep my life free
my dealer knows
he got my soul to keep
my black belt jeans
my my blue eyed girl
my over watered soil
all in a whirr el
but ill drink my wine
ill write my line
and i wont hurry
best to take my time
