Time Enough To Breathe.mp3
A song about the modern day hectic life we all live
Hello,
I am basically a songwriter. I always co-write songs. The completed songs I have are projects done with my other co-writes and musical collaborators. While I do play drums, I do not play in a band because of my work schedule. I hope you will find a song or two that you can relate with and enjoy.
Story behind the song
It's no wonder it's getting harder to find "Time Enough To Breathe"
Lyrics
Time Enough To Breathe ' 2011 Roger Sosnowski/Janice Hopkins/Larry Vannatta
Verse 1
Becky's takin' ballet, Billy's started band
Katie's playin' center field, Carrie's off to Science camp
All the kids need braces, seems we're workin' night and day
And every single morning, the new sitter gets here late
Lift:
You climb into your car throw a kiss when I start my truck
Do you think we're bitin off,, just a little too much?
Chorus:
Honey, let''s take break
Drown some worms off the dock at Higgins Lake
Pull up a pair of lawn chairs
N' Face that settin sun
Or just lay around, do nothin'
'Til the day is done
Save our sanity
Find ourselves,,, time enough to breathe
Verse 2
Billy lost his Nike's, then he missed the bus
I'm no longer wonderin' why there's no time left for us
Clunker overheated on my way home yesterday
I'm starvin' for attention, but with too much on my plate
Lift:
When I get home dead tired'...your eyes say the same out loud
Now, we''ve gotta slow the pace and I think I know how
Chorus
Honey, let''s take break
Drown some worms off the dock at Higgins Lake
Pull up a pair of lawn chairs
N' Face that settin sun
Or just lay around, and do nothin'
'Til the day is done
Save our sanity
Find ourselves,,, time enough to breathe
Bridge:
Let''s start puttin'' away
A little every week
Leave the kids home with your mom
Rent a place out at that lake''
Just you and me, honey let us find
Time Enough to breathe
Chorus:
Yeah, we''re gonna take a break
Drown some worms off the dock at Higgins Lake
Pull up a pair of lawn chairs
N' Face that settin sun
Or just lay around, do nothin'
'Til the day is done
Save our sanity
Find ourselves,,, time enough to breathe
OUTRO:
Hey, when do we leave'..
Honey, let''s find''.. time enough to breathe
