All The Time In The World Lyrics

There's a woman in a wool suit
Carrying an infant
Coming through the bank doors
Late for some appointment

And she rushes to the front desk
And she talks to the receptionist
Who points her to a telephone
Over in the waiting room

And she's calling someone
But I can't see much from where I sit
I'm stuck here at this drive-through window
Waiting in this line

There goes the diaper bag
The baby's slipping on her hip
Before my car moves up an inch
They both have started crying

All the time in the world
Climbs the walls, swells the doors
It goes flying out the window

All the time in the world
These precious days we live through
Just thrown away like tissue
I wish that I could give you all the time in the world

Dresses on a clothesline
Dancing in a heat wave
Browning in the car fumes
Blowing off the interstate

[ Beth Nielsen Chapman Lyrics are found on www.songlyrics.com ]
I go clicking past the light poles
And I'm glancing down the cornrows
I've been dreaming in a straight line
I've been waking up in circles

And did I say
I have the right to want it all
Well, if it's true I want it all
How could that do me any harm

I'll take the curves, I'll dodge the cops
I'll jump the ditches
Doing eighty miles an hour
Slammin' back into your arms

All the time in the world
Climbs the walls, swells the doors
It goes flying out the window

All the time in the world
These precious days we live through
Just thrown away like tissue
I wish that I could give you

All the time in the world
Climbs the walls, swells the doors
It goes flying out the window

All the time in the world
These precious days we live through
Just thrown away like tissue
I wish that I could give you all the time in the world

There's a woman in a wool suit
Carrying an infant
Coming through the bank doors
