Lyrics

Looking like another long night

Expressing anticipation of a lengthy night ahead.

I'm fading in the dying light

Feeling a sense of diminishing energy in the fading daylight.

Everybody's gonna get their shots in

Acknowledging that everyone will have their turn to criticize or harm.

So give me just a little time

Requesting some time or space to cope with challenges.


The air was changing as the sun set

Describing a shift in the atmosphere during sunset.

The boys were looking for a fight

Indicating a group of individuals seeking confrontation.

The owner looked up from behind the bar

The owner of a place advising to take a potential conflict outside.

Said You better take that shit outside

Reiterating the need to handle conflicts away from the establishment.


I never asked for nothing easy

Expressing a preference for facing challenges rather than seeking an easy path.

Never wanted a way out no

Rejecting the idea of wanting an escape from difficulties.


Seemed everything was not enough

Feeling dissatisfaction despite having seemingly everything.

I could see it in her eyes

Perceiving disappointment in someone's eyes and acknowledging letting them down.

I could see it in her eyes

-

I let her down but I could make it up

Believing in the possibility of redemption and making amends.

I just need a little time

Reiterating the need for time to rectify mistakes and improve.

Just need a little time

-

Just need a way to buy a little time

Expressing a desire for a means to gain the necessary time.


I told her I ain't going nowhere

Assuring someone of commitment and not abandoning them.

I know she's everything I'm not

Acknowledging differences between oneself and the other person.

Home is anywhere that little girl is now

Defining home as wherever the mentioned person is located.

My love for her is all I got

Stating that love for the person is the most valuable possession.


Looking like another long shot

Facing another difficult situation with low odds of success.

But we been through it all before

Having experienced challenges before and being resilient.

Taken my fair share of kicks when I'm down

Acknowledging past hardships and resilience in enduring them.

Now I can take a couple more

Expressing a capacity to endure more challenges.


Seems all I had was not enough

Feeling that previous efforts were insufficient.

I could see it in her eyes

Recognizing disappointment in the person's eyes and vowing not to repeat the mistake.

I could see it in her eyes

-

Won't let her down again my love

Committing to not let the person down again.

I just need a little time

Reiterating the need for time to prove commitment and make amends.

Just need a little time

-

Just need a way to buy a little time

Desiring a method to secure the necessary time for improvement.
