Give Me a Little More Time
Yearning for Redemption: Drake Bell's Tale of Regrets and Redemption in 'Give Me a Little More Time'
Lyrics
Another drink another roller dice
Engaging in another round of drinks and taking chances in life.
Another night I paid the price
Suffering consequences or paying a price for actions taken on another night.
And too many times I turned way good advice
Ignoring good advice multiple times in the past.
Give me just a little more time
Seeking a bit more time or patience.
I fell in love only once in my life
Having experienced love only once with minimal conflict.
We'd never fight, well maybe once or twice
Describing a previous relationship with occasional disagreements.
Then he came along now this whiskey is my wife
Referring to the impact of a new person on the speaker's life.
Give me just little more time
Requesting a little more time to cope with changes.
All my regrets carry weight
Expressing the heaviness of regrets carried by the speaker.
I'm broke and tired of losing my faith
Feeling financially and emotionally depleted, losing faith.
Lit cigarette with her lipstick stain
Visualizing a lit cigarette with a trace of a past lover's lipstick.
Whispering sadly to me
Hearing a sorrowful whisper from the memory associated with the cigarette.
All my regrets carry weight
Reiterating the weight of accumulated regrets in the speaker's life.
I'm broke and tired of losing my faith
Expressing weariness and disillusionment, losing faith repeatedly.
Lit cigarette with her lipstick stain
Depicting a visual image of a cigarette marked by a lover's lipstick.
Whispering sadly to me
Receiving a sad whisper from the lingering memory.
Curtain call end of the show
Describing the end of an event or relationship, perhaps a metaphorical curtain call.
It's 4 a.m., and I'm here alone
Being alone at 4 a.m., seeking solace at a bar from the bartender.
Bartender please I've got nowhere else to go
Pleading with the bartender for more time or understanding.
Give me just a little more time
Reiterating the request for a little more time.
