if i had more time to waste i would stand here talking
'til the sun came up over the boulevard
if i had more time i would close my eyes and i would think real hard about it

and i would try to comprehend how this mess got started

if i had more hours to sit here and wonder and ponder

and think my way around some grand idea
i'd formulate one hell of a plan, if i had just a few more hours, man
and i would push the limits of your understanding


and if i had an ounce of will or any will at all, i would stand up and walk out
i would stand up and walk right out of here

but i am weak, and i'm unclear
and if i had a clue about what lies ahead, well i might know what to do
but at the moment i'm broken in two, yeah i am broken into


if i had any talent i would have moved to nashville
and made a million dollars singing songs about desire

i'd have set the world on fire, i would have righted every wrong
but i just sit here rotting in this deep quagmire


if i had the strength of mind to figure out what the hell i ought to do
and the faith to see it through, yeah the restraint to see it through
or the strength of heart it takes to let it go and to leave it all behind

i need to find some peace of mind, i need to find some peace of mind
