There Are Times - Janis Ian

There are times I wish I

Could be a little bit stronger

There are times I wish the night

Would be a little bit longer, longer

I used to think I could carry the load

Now it seems so many years ago

My time, your time

Time of the mind, mind time

You can have it

There are days when I’m amazed

That I’m still standing

Keeping my place, I fight through the haze

Only by gambling, gambling

When I was younger I thought I was strong

Now I’m still younger but I have not long

My time, your time

Time of the mind

You can have it

There are times, moments when I

Didn’t really feel like crying

There’ve been times I knew that I

Would do better by sighing

Dying

Sometimes I think it’s easy to fall

And then I remember, kid you gotta be tall

My time, your time

You can have it, cause I can’t take it

There are times I wish that I

Could be a little bit stronger

There are times I wish the night

Could be a little bit longer, longer

Sometimes I know it’s easy to fall

And then I remember I’ve gotta be tall

My time, your time

Time of the mind

You can have it cause I don’t want it

If you want it you can have it

I can’t take it, I’m falling, I’m calling

Please, please, help me

Please help me
