Bargaining With Time

Lyrics

Give me one more year Just twelve more months to make it right Give me one more season Before you turn off all the lights I'm not ready yet There's too much left I haven't said Give me one more morning One more chance before the end I'm bargaining with time Negotiating with the inevitable I'm bargaining with time Tell me what's acceptable What do I trade for another day What do I sacrifice to make you stay I'm bargaining with time Give me six more weeks Just enough to see the spring Give me one more conversation One more ordinary thing I'll trade anything Take whatever you require Just leave the spark a little longer Before you extinguish the fire I'm bargaining with time Negotiating with the clock I'm bargaining with time Before the final tick and tock What's the currency for hours What's the price for one more day I'm bargaining with time Don't take this away I know you don't negotiate I know the deal is already done But I'm standing here pleading anyway Like everyone who's ever lost someone Give me one more hour Sixty minutes, nothing more Give me one more heartbeat Just to settle up the score I'm bargaining with time Though I know you never bend I'm bargaining with time Begging for an extension Take my years instead of theirs Take whatever you declare I'm bargaining with time Please, I'm bargaining with time Just one more day Just one more hour Just one more minute Please
