Great Big Sea - Buying Time

I stayed awake for hours again last night
Searchin' for a reasoning to keep up the fight
I've made choices I'll regret
I've got problems I don't get
I didn't wanna carry the heavier load
You can't always take the middle road
There comes a time when you make up your mind
And the point gets left behind

[Chorus]
Let's wait one more day for the conversation
One more day to make it right
Let's get away from the confrontation
One more day just buying time

For years and years you can drift along
And write another verse to an endless song
Wait one more day til the time is right
Hopin' that you both see the light
You won't see the light

[Chorus]

I'm not afraid to be alone
I'm not afraid to be alone

I stayed awake for hours again last night
Searchin' for a reasoning to keep up the fight
I've made choices I don't regret
I've got problems and problems and problems

[Chorus]
Just buying time [Repeat x2]
