From the recording Craft Singles

This was born in the back room of 911 Ashland, St Paul, in 1997, when I indeed had Nothin' But Time. Work was scarce. I like the repetitive nature of the lyric, rather like drumming your fingers on the table. "I can wait..."

Lyrics

Nothin’ But Time

Now you don’t know what I’ll go through,
To win your love, I’m counting on you,
I won’t give in, I won’t back down,
You can’t hold out, you’ll come around,

I’ve got Nothin’ But Time,
I’ve got Nothin’ But Time,
I’ve got Nothin’ But Time,
I’ve got Nothin’ But Time,

I don’t have much, as everyone knows,
And I don’t speak in elegant prose,
But I’ve got love and warm desire,
And I need you, heat up this fire,

I’ve got Nothin’ But Time,
I’ve got Nothin’ But Time,
I’ve got Nothin’ But Time,
I’ve got Nothin’ But Time,

How can I tell you that you light up my life?
When you don’t even know I’m alive? Dig…

I’ve got Nothin’ But Time,
I’ve got Nothin’ But Time,
I’ve got Nothin’ But Time,
I’ve got Nothin’ But Time,

I’ve got Nothin’ But Time,
I’ve got Nothin’ But Time,
I’ve got Nothin’ But Time,
I’ve got Nothin’ But Time,
