about

From Agatha: “I Wish We Had More Time” is the song I wrote after my dad passed, which Shadow Estate turned into something very dear to my heart.

lyrics

I Wish We Had More Time

(Verses)

I sometimes think
I should call you at the ending of the day
It hasn’t hit me yet
That you’re more than just a cell phone call away
Just sitting here
Watching you appear in things I say and do
At times it's comforting
To know a part of you lives on inside me, too

(Instrumental Bridge)

(Chorus)
I wish we had more time
To bullshit on the phone
I don’t care what we talk about
Your voice it brings me home
I wish we had more time
To just sit face to face
To learn to love each other
In a million little ways

(Verses)
I always thought
There’d be time to tell you all the things I felt
It only goes to show
We just can’t know the hand of cards that we’ve been dealt

People say
to be soothed because you’re in a better place
Don’t they know that I’d give anything
For just one more look at your face?
(Instrumental Bridge)

(Chorus)
I wish we had more time
To laugh at silly things
To talk about the days we’ve had
Or share our plans and dreams

I wish we had more time
To face the world together
I’d show you that I’d have your back
Through any kind of weather

(Bridge with Lyrics)

I’d never have been ready
To tell you goodbye
And I’m trying hard to get back up
But no matter how hard I try….

(Chorus)
I wish I had more time
To set the world aside
I would listen to your stories
Sitting by the fireside

I wish I had more time
To memorize your smile
I’d take your hands in mine
And just be near you for awhile
