A Little of Your Time

You come home with stories

About the places you've been

The people you've met

And everything you've seen

You drove a fast car

You conquered the day

And I love hearing every word

You have to say

But where's my adventure?

Where's my fun?

Just because it looks different

Doesn't mean I don't have any

I got my hair done

Talked with the girls

Spent all afternoon

Getting lost in my world

You call it shopping

I call it fun

You call it nothing

I call it my world

I need you to hear me

I need you to listen

I don't need you to agree

With every decision

I just need to know

My words mean something too

I need you to love what I say

The way I love hearing you

You see mountains climbing

I see colours and clothes

You see miles of highway

I see places to go

We're not so different

As different as it seems

We're both just chasing

Our own little dreams

It doesn't make me less

It doesn't make my stories small

My mountain is still a mountain

Even if you don't see it at all

So sit here beside me

Let me tell you about my day

And for a little while

Just smile and let me say

I need you to hear me

I need you to listen

I don't need you to agree

With every decision

I just need to know

My words mean something too

I need you to love what I say

The way I love hearing you

My adventure is different

But it's still mine

And sometimes all I need

Is a little of your time
