I Wish Things Were Different

I went back on my word, 
I was 100 down again. 
Submerged by a bigger world,
And I want to be your hero, 
 I want to be your hero. 
But I need to rest.
So grant me,   

A little time out, 
A little time out,  
I noticed right now, 
 I know it’s hard. 
A little time out.
A little time out.   

This love is very delicate, 
Each act is an act from within.
After all you can’t catch a bubble of soap, 
If you don’t also have soap on your skin.

I’m prepared to count my blessings,  
And right out all my wrongs, 
Open up the part I’ve been hiding,
From you for so very long, 
Take a look at the man in the mirror, 
He’s the one who’s gotta learn, 

So if I need to take, 
A little time, 

A little time out, 
A little time out, 
I noticed right now, 
I know it’s hard to go,
  A little time out,          
A little time.

A little time out, 
A little time out, 
I noticed right now, 
I know it’s hard.
  A little time out,          
A little time.

I want to be your hero.  Yes I want to be your hero.
