Isn'T It Time

Isn’t it time? (to get over) I can see that you’re brokenhearted… and, you’re still thinking of him I’ve been hoping you’ll notice me… although the chances are slim. Why can’t you give yourself a break… and go out and have some fun I know the pain will slowly vanish… if you go out with someone I wish you could see me here, trying to get through to you Sometimes, it’s good to throw out the old, and, start something new Is there anything I can say, or do, to help you to get through this? Sometimes, if we distract the mind, we won’t think of what we miss Chorus Isn’t it time to get over, all that’s troubling you I am here and I know, how you feel… ‘cause I’ve been through it too Isn’t it time, to get over all that you’ve been through Don’t worry baby, I’ve got all the time (that it takes), and I’ll wait for you. Another hollow day passes by… and another silent night, If you could only see me here… I could make it feel alright Don’t you know that in love sometimes… we can get a second chance? All we have to do, is open our hearts… unlock the doors to romance. Chorus Isn’t it time to get over, all that hurts inside ‘cause I am here, and I can show you how… to cast your fears aside Isn’t it time, to get over all that you’ve been through Don’t worry baby, I’ve got all the time( that it takes), and I’ll wait for you. I went by your house today… and you gave me a big smile It was all that I needed to see… I haven’t seen it for a while I can’t believe you noticed me… you’re so out of my league I’m flying so high right now, just knowing that you’re intrigued Chorus You see it’s time to get over, all the troubled past And you see me here, and I can show you how (long), true love can last. You see it’s time, to get over all that you’ve been through Now I thank you girl ‘cause you’ve been worth the wait It’s time for love, to start anew. Repeat chorus and fade John Derek Hamilton June 23,2018

John, this kind of reminded me of Don Henley's famous song.. "Last Worthless Night"

Nice lyrics, John. It can be hard to put past disappointments behind but if we look hard enough we can usually find something just as beautiful to take it's place. Hoping you are well:)
