I'll Leave Myself A Little Time

(album: Up To Date - 1971)

Not long ago you'd find me feeling so low
I had some troubles that you just can't hide
No time to start but living far from my heart
I thought I'd take another look inside

Lovers and friends will come and go like the wind
And there is nothing any man can do
For what it's worth I'll make a home on this earth
And I will hope that love will see me through

I'll leave myself a little time for some gladness
And even if I don't know why
Tomorrow's gonna bring the sunshine to a brand new day anyway
There's music in the air with laughter everywhere
And love could be the reason why
I'll leave myself a little time to go a different way

I can't believe that now I'm singing a song
Or that I'm laughing with that great big sun
No one I see has got a worry for me
I'm keeping old Mister Time on the run

I'll leave myself a little time for some gladness
And even if I don't know why
Tomorrow's gonna bring the sunshine to a brand new day anyway
There's music in the air with laughter everywhere
And love could be the reason why
I'll leave myself a little time to go a different way
I'll leave myself a little time to go a different way
I'll leave myself a little time to go a different way
I'll leave myself a little time...
