Nothing But Time

(album: Dreadatour - 1996)

All I want from you is nothing but time
The rest it doesn't matter
It really doesn't matter
All I need from you is nothing but time
The rest it doesn't matter
It really doesn't matter

You messed it up baby
You messed it up big time
You tried to tie me down against my will
So you could feel fine
See I'm never gonna front on anybody so
I'll spill it out you give me the punani
I'll definitely kill it
But no I'm not your man I'm sorry
That's just how it is
I got my own shit to do I got to look after my biz
You better getta better fella bella that's what I figure
Cause no-way ya gonna tie down his little nigga

All I need from you is nothing but time
The rest is torn and shattered
But it really doesn't matter
Cause as long as there is love
Between a woman and a man
It seems the rest it doesn't matter
It really doesn't matter
All I need from you is nothing but time
Nothing but time...

All you want from me is nothing but time
But if I give it to you, you will say the same line
I'll be a better woman an' I'll give you ya space
But saying that just clarifies that the truth ya can't face
'Cause you ain't gonna change, you ain't gonna change
That's like Prince Charles with dreadlocks
Would look kinda strange You asking for time
Ya better look at your clock an wake up
Because foolishness sometime has gotta stop

Ya fell on ya knee
Begging me please to come back to you
And make nuff baby's
An' put you at ease but there's other ladies
Who would trust in my love make me catch little breeze
It's over my darling cas done spells done
Ya better get yourself together and go look another one
Because my minds made up go on
You can yet it get it girl
You don't need nothing but time
