So little time, so little time
I'm so frustrated
Some little joy, so little joy
It's complicated
So little time, so little time time
To work it on out
(Yeah yeah)

So little joy, so little joy
It's complicated
I feel I'm stumbling in the dark
Somnambulated
I feel my heart seeking the sparks
I'm praying for love
(Love love)
Praying for love

So little joy, so little joy
It's complicated
Some little time, so little time
When your heart's been faded
So little hope, so little hope
I'm praying for love

So little hope, so little hope
And I'm prayin' now with love

So little time the pace has changed
But I'm still waiting
A thousand years of timeless days
Somnambulating
I'm stumbling wounded in the dark
But I'm praying again for love
