When It's Time

ABOUT THE SONG 
This was the song that started it ALL. This was the very first complete song I ever wrote, when I was just 18. I had only been playing the guitar for a few months at that point, and I remember just sitting on my bed strumming the Am chord, and I blurted out a lyric and the whole song just flowed right out of me in a matter of minutes. Shortly after, I began playing coffeehouses and started churning out song after song. I started working with a producer who helped me put together my first 3 song EP. The song itself was about a relationship that I was in, that was kind of in limbo. I kept getting the runaround from this boy, but I kept insisting that he was worth waiting around for. In retrospect, I was just a very dumb and naive 18 year old girl, hahaha!

Verse 1:
Here’s a thought
Dry your eyes now don’t you cry
Follow me
Throw your troubles to the sky

Pre Chorus:
I know that you’re worried
But it’ll be alright
Just take your time, no hurry
I’ll still be on your side

Chorus:
Cuz I know that I mean what I say
When I look in your eyes
And I won’t ever go away
That’s for you to decide
Just let me know
When it’s time…
Time…

Verse 2:
Take a look
At the situation here
I know that you need time
How bout a year?

Pre Chorus:
I’ll wait till the stars fall
Or till pigs fly
Just please don’t forget me
Or push me aside

Chorus:
Cuz I know that I mean what I say
When I look in your eyes
And I won’t ever go away
That’s for you to decide
Just let me know
When it’s time…
Time…
