She Didn't Have Time

Terri Clark

I did this one off of my CD by ear so if it is off please email me at [email protected] with the corrections thanks and enjoy He said goodbye from the edge of the porch Like she'd been some casual friend He said"You're better off without me,I'm not what you need"like her momma had said abouT him He started the car pulled out of the drive didn't waste anytime lookin back She watched him go thinkin even a stranger would show more compassion than that She could've cried but she didn't have time She had a baby to feed, a pink blanket to find, to rock their little one to sleep She could've laid in bed for hours giving misery the power But she didn't have time She got a sitter and she got a job 'cause she had a promise to keep Her day was a factory and evenin survival and night was exhaustion and sleep Sometimes she felt life was passing her by and watching was all she could do Her friends said "You gotta get outta the house and maybe you'll meet someone new" She could've tried but she didn't have time She had a five years old to feed, she had ballet class, piano lessons and t-ball little league She could've laid awake for hours giving lonely nights the power But she didn't have time Not time, where would she find the time to trust a man again Not time, for that flat tire, a crowded parking lot and then, Not time, but yes have coffee with the man that got her tire fixed She was thinking "Gosh, he's handsome" When he asked "Do you have kids?" She could've lied but she didn't have time, all she said was "She's five" He said "I saw the car seat, I love kids, does she have your eyes" And they sat and talked for hours givin destiny it's power She could've been afraid to fall in love that night But she didn't have time She could've been afraid to fall in love that night But she didn't have time
