Give Me More Time
Yearning for Time: George Strait's Reflection on Life's Urgency
Lyrics
A banker and a farmer discuss the bottom line,
A banker and a farmer discuss financial matters.
It ain't rained and all the crops are dying on the vine.
Due to lack of rain, crops on the farm are withering.
Give me more time.
Request for additional time.
You gotta give me more time.
Emphasis on the need for more time.
That farm's been in my family going on a hundred years.
Expressing the long history of the farm in the family.
We've pulled through hard times before with blood sweat and tears.
Highlighting past resilience through difficult times.
Give me more time,
Reiteration of the plea for more time.
I need more time.
Emphasizing the urgent need for additional time.
Oh, what would he give for a little more time?
Reflecting on the value of time and its significance.
Two lovers at a table candlelight and wine,
Describing a scene of two lovers facing a dilemma.
One's looking for an answer the other one can't find.
One lover seeks answers, while the other is uncertain.
Give me more time, You gotta give me more time.
Repeating the request for more time in a romantic context.
She says "You know I love you but my heart's in a bind,
The woman loves but is unsure, requesting time to decide.
Afraid you?re gonna leave me if I don't make up my mind."
Fear of abandonment if a decision is not made.
Give me more time, I gotta have more time.
Insistence on the necessity of additional time in love.
Some have barely any, some too much on their hands.
Observation on the varying amounts of time people have.
Some would give anything to have it back again.
Some regret not appreciating time when they had it.
A patient and his doctor meet behind closed doors,
Depicting a conversation between a patient and a doctor.
You kidding me? How could this be, I'm only 24. Give me more time,
A surprising realization of age, pleading for more time.
You gotta give me more time, give me more time.
Reiteration of the plea for additional time.
