I've been thinking that you and I just need a little time
I've been thinking

I'll do this the, the right way and dig myself out of this hole
It's frightening but I don't know which way I can go
It might be that everyone around me seems cold
And I think I need to do it all on my own

And if I try to turn my life back around
It's so hard 'cause I'm on a path I've never been down
And I've got to think that this might be
The one way that I can go

You had faith in me and this is all for you

And I've been thinking that you and I, we just need a little time
We'll figure out where we both went wrong and we'll make it right
I've been wishing on every star that's hanging up in the sky
Just hoping that I can find a little bit of time

Now that I'm, I'm stuck in this city with spring rolling in
It's so hard 'cause I don't know where to begin
There's just never much time these days
And I've been up all night trying to say

I've got, I've got to get this all off my chest
I am so sick of living my life in suspense
I'm focused on getting my life rearranged
You're goddamn right, my life has changed

You had faith in me and this is all for you

And I've been thinking that you and I, we just need a little time
We'll figure out where we both went wrong and we'll make it right
I've been wishing on every star that's hanging up in the sky
Just hoping that I can find a little bit of time

All at once my world collides
All at once my world collides

There's so much more that I wanted to say
I guess it didn't turn out that way
So I'll step back and never let go to the
Constant hope I'm never alone

And now I've been thinking that you and I, we just need a little time
We'll figure out where we both went wrong and we'll make it right
I've been wishing on every star that's hanging up in the sky
Just hoping that I can find a little bit of time

    General CommentIn my opinion, the best song on their new album. "We All Need A Reason To Believe" is so good, as was their other album. This song can be interpreted in so many ways, but it relates to me in telling one of my very good friends that I was totally in love with them for two years, but they don't truly understand the depth and meaning of how much I do. Valencia is amazing, and they are unique in so many ways. Great job, koumika, I hadn't figured out what 'all at once my world collides', was. Thanks for posting them :D

    General CommentThe line "and youre goddamn right my life has changed" is actually "and youre goddamn right my life NEEDS a change."

    I found Valencia a few months ago and quickly fell in love with them. They are so catchy, they have great chord progressions and their vocals are creative, you cant help but love them.

    This song is about about someone realizing that what theyre doing is pissing off their friends and showing the maturity to try and change for the better. In return they ask their friends to help them out and give him time to change.
