Lyrics
A LITTLE MORE TIME TO BREATHE
by Betsy Walter, Ron Fendel, Bruce Glaser, Judy Klass
you're showin' me some classy times
candle-lit dinners with good french wine
the symphony and the uptown world
make me forget I'm a country girl
but I'm hopin' you can see
you just might be rushin' me
why don't we try to give the wine
a little more time to breathe
last man I loved was a cheatin' fool
he taught me things you don't learn in school
gunnin' his motor and runnin' around
low-life snake crawlin' all over town
but I left him 'n' now I'm free
still my heart keeps tellin' me
just like the wine, gotta give my mind
a little more time to breathe
'til I can trust again, it would be a sin
for you to spend all your time
hangin' out there on the line
take my word it's not you at all
you lift me up but I still might fall
my lips don't quite know how to kiss
there's a tremble in my fingertips
you're treatin' me oh so sweet
but I'm not back on my feet
bottom line is I need to find
a little more time to breathe
'til I can trust again, it would be a sin
for you to spend all your time
hangin' out there on the line
I'm hopin' you can see
you just might be rushin' me
bottom line is I need to find
a little more time to breathe
a little more time to breathe
a little more time to breathe
