Rue Snider - Leaving To Returning Lyrics

"We have time" she told me right when she was leaving
As she kissed me and walked out for another week away
"We have time" she wrote me when she wasn't in a place to call me
When her family was around her telling her to stay

Do we have time I wonder as I stand here thinking of her
Because having time and timing are everything
Will there be enough time?
Will we be ready at the right moment?
Will our heart and minds surrender to the forces in our way?

No way to know
Either way she's gonna go

If this was science fiction
I'd get myself a Delorean
I'd travel to where you don't need roads
And see if all her leaving leads to returning
If in the future she and I have a happy home

"We have real love" she told as we were waking in the morning
As she touched me and kissed me and took away my pain
"We have real love" she told me
As we were packing her bags for traveling
As I was getting ready to take her to the plane

Will we ever be alone together without extenuating circumstances?
She and I and time to be the people that we dream
She would draw the world her mind sees
I would sing her some bad poetry
We would hide beneath the covers and not be afraid to sleep

No way to know
Either way she's gonna go

If this was science fiction
I'd get myself a Delorean
I'd travel to where you don't need roads
And see if all her leaving leads to returning
If in the future she and I have a happy home

If this was science fiction
I'd get myself a Delorean
I'd travel to where you don't need roads
And see if all her leaving leads to returning
If in the future she and I have a happy home
