Lyrics

[00:07.15] This red haired girl of mine
[00:10.40]
[00:12.59] Tore a pinecone from the pine to cut into her palm
[00:17.96]
[00:20.60] Sing the song her sinking lover sung
[00:25.14]
[00:26.39] I shut my eyes ripped the train from off the line
[00:33.89] But a sudden gust of snow blew through a hole in my girl's clothes
[00:42.95]
[00:43.77] Well my girl knows she's not all right and I don't mind
[00:54.77]
[00:56.52] Just give me time just give me time oh baby baby give me time
[01:10.65]
[01:25.28] Her stinging eyes
[01:27.46]
[01:29.59] And her sixteen hour drive and our shared transparent rope
[01:35.58]
[01:37.89] And our icy dive through hope
[01:41.58]
[01:43.70] I'll memorize and I'll cut into my mind I can't believe it can be so
[01:53.89]
[01:55.95] I won't believe that my girl froze well my girl knows
[02:04.58]
[02:05.83] I'm coiled tight and green inside
[02:12.46]
[02:14.59] Just give me time just give me time oh baby baby give me time
[02:28.77]
[02:42.76] And that weight you hold it's getting light
[02:49.58]
[02:50.58] And love I know you'll raise it easily up high
[02:57.96]
[02:58.83] Just give it time just give it time
[03:05.83]
[03:07.14] Baby Just give it time
[03:09.71]
[03:10.89] Oh baby just give it time just give it time
[03:19.33]
[03:24.03] Just give it time just give it time
[03:27.46]
[03:31.96] Just give it time just give it time
[03:35.21]
[03:39.90] Just give it time just give it time
