Kate Ceberano Time To Think Lyrics

Hello darling Ive been calling you
The batterys on the blink again
Im sitting here knee deep in peak hour traffic and it's getting worse
don't forget to check the microwave
The dinners hot the cats been fed
The milk is off you might need to go to the store
Yes I know that all sounds boring
But I wont be home tonight
don't wait up for me
I will be staying at a girlfriends out of town
don't try to call me there
Coz Im gonna need
Some time to think some time to settle down

I guess you're sleeping as it's 4am,
The world is in a coma and Im not used to sleeping in a single bed
and I can't get warm
Ive got this picture of the two of you
It lingers like a strange perfume
Clings around the edges of my vanity
Babe, you know it's killing me I wont be home tonight
don't wait up for me
I'll be staying at a girlfriends out of town
No don't try to call me there
Coz, Im gonna need some time
time to think and time to settle down.

Some dog is waking up the neighbourhood
and shits me that it's half past nine
I haven't even showered and Im late again
oh how middle class
Perhaps well meet for lunch, and have a chat
and then you'll placate me
and remind me why I ever fell in love with you
maybe well even start a new

I need some time, time to think and time to settle down
I need some time, time to think and time to settle down
I wont be home tonight, don't wait up for me
I'll be staying at girlfriends out of town don't try to call me there
Time to think.
