Don't you ever have those days when you need a minute Too busy running round and running out of self control Swimming through bottles, meeting problems I ain't met before Thought I was crystal clear until a mirror told me no It ain't a healthy way to cope, at least that's what I'm told I'ma need a minute Mmh, need a minute, mmh I'ma need a minute Ain't enough time in the day but I need a minute I know I shouldn't really run away but I need a minute Dancing with the tears on my face and I need a minute Don't you ever have those days when you need a minute It's a heavy crown to wear, oh, even when it's gold Keeping a level head when balance isn't what you know Too busy running out of feelings, I ain't got no more There I go spinning round and round just like a merry-go Then you hear something in the silence and it shakes you all night long Everything that you're hiding finally brings you to the floor Tell yourself that you're fine until you get some time alone Everything that you're hiding finally finds you on the floor You gon' need a minute Ain't enough time in the day but I need a minute I know I shouldn't really run away but I need a minute Dancing with the tears on my face and I need a minute Don't you ever have those days when you need a minute I'ma need a minute Ain't enough time in the day but I need a minute I know I shouldn't really run away but I need a minute Dancing with the tears on my face and I need a minute Don't you ever have those days when you need a minute Ain't enough time in the day but I need a minute I know I shouldn't really run away but I need a minute Dancing with the tears on my face and I need a minute Don't you ever have those days when you need a minute
