Katie Melua - A Time to Buy lyrics
[Katie Melua - A Time to Buy lyrics]
It's a time to buy a time for shopping
Going to the store and make a choice
But everything she sees
It's like they're talking talking at her
With a different voice
Laura's head is buzzing can't remember
What she came here for
Couldn't keep her promise not to gaze at
Things she can't afford cause there's shoes
Bags and silk scarves
And dreams of summer days
And now she's wording a letter to her bosses
For a raise
But then she passes the baby section
With the tinest shoes on shiny trays
It's a time to buy a time for shopping
Going to the store and make a choice
But everything she sees
It's like they're talking talking at her
With their different voices a singer's voice
And her mother's pleas and the voice of
Countless charities but the one she heeds
With certainty says have it all, have it all
Have it all
Margaret's by the mannequins
Gazing at their suit's
And shoulders still no man
And it's another year of winter holidays
But soon she'll have him and buy him
They'll sit like this
And they'll go skiing every year
He's around the corner
The man who'll love her and understand her
And her career
It's a time to buy
A time for shopping going to the store
And make a choice but everything she sees
It's like they're talking talking at her
With their different voices a singer's voice
And her mother's pleas and the voice of
Countless charities but the one she heeds
With certainty says have it all, have it all
Have it all
Going to the store and make a choice
But everything she sees
It's like they're talking talking at her
With a different voice
Laura's head is buzzing can't remember
What she came here for
Couldn't keep her promise not to gaze at
Things she can't afford cause there's shoes
Bags and silk scarves
And dreams of summer days
And now she's wording a letter to her bosses
For a raise
But then she passes the baby section
With the tinest shoes on shiny trays
It's a time to buy a time for shopping
Going to the store and make a choice
But everything she sees
It's like they're talking talking at her
With their different voices a singer's voice
And her mother's pleas and the voice of
Countless charities but the one she heeds
With certainty says have it all, have it all
Have it all
Margaret's by the mannequins
Gazing at their suit's
And shoulders still no man
And it's another year of winter holidays
But soon she'll have him and buy him
They'll sit like this
And they'll go skiing every year
He's around the corner
The man who'll love her and understand her
And her career
It's a time to buy
A time for shopping going to the store
And make a choice but everything she sees
It's like they're talking talking at her
With their different voices a singer's voice
And her mother's pleas and the voice of
Countless charities but the one she heeds
With certainty says have it all, have it all
Have it all
