I promised you the world again
Everything within my hands
All the riches one could dream
They will come from me
I hoped that you could understand
That this is not what I had planned
Please don’t worry now
It will turn around
Cause I need more time
Just a few more months and we’ll be fine
So say what’s on your mind
Cause I can’t figure out just what’s inside
I hoped that you could understand
That this is not what I had planned
Please don’t worry now
It will turn around
Cause I need more time
Just a few more months and we’ll be fine
So say what’s on your mind
Cause I can’t figure out just what’s inside
So say alright
Cause I know we can make it if we try
Cause I need more time
Just a few more months and we’ll be fine
We’re off to new lands
So hold on to my hands
It’s gonna be alright
It’s a whole lot brighter
So stand by the fire
It’s gonna be alright
Yeah, the road gets harder
But it’s not much farther
It’s gonna be alright
You know that it ain’t easy
Please believe me
It’s gonna be alright
Please don’t worry now
It will turn around
Cause I need more time
Just a few more months and we’ll be fine
So say what’s on your mind
Cause I can’t figure out just what’s inside
So say alright
Cause I know we can make it if we try
Cause I need more time
Just a few more months and we’ll be fine

Behind the Song:'We wrote More Time about the immense patience it takes to be in our industry, both for
us and our families. When you sign a record deal you get so many assurances of success
that just never seem to pan-out in exactly the way you thought they would. You keep
telling yourself that everything will work out in a couple more months, and then months
turn into years. As much as it speaks to frustration, it’s also a song about devotion. It’s
about knowing you’re doing what you’re supposed to be doing and having the patience to
see it through to the end. This song has the first appearance of slide guitar on a
NEEDTOBREATHE record, and we think we chose a pretty good spot. We mention that
because at end of working on every song the first question we always ask is, “does this
need harmonica or slide?”' - Needtobreathe
